• The new Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra comes with the latest Corning Gorilla Armor glass on its display.
• Gorilla Armor promises lower reflections, and our experience aligns with this promise.
• It also promises better scratch resistance, and scratch tests have given the Galaxy S24 Ultra incredible scores.

Samsung has just launched the Galaxy S24 series, and the company spent a lot of time on stage talking about the slew of Galaxy AI features on the devices. But Samsung did not spend much time talking about the new Corning Gorilla Armor on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, just about mentioning how it is optically enhanced and has superior durability. However, after using the Galaxy S24 Ultra for a few days now, we can confidently say that Samsung undersold Gorilla Armor and should have spent more effort publicizing what it brings to the table.

Corning and Samsung haven’t shared the fine print on their claims for the new Gorilla Armor. Gorilla Armor is said to perform “up to three times better” on drop tests and shows “over four times more” scratch resistance, but this comparison is done with unnamed “competitive aluminosilicate cover glasses.” Gorilla Armor is also said to reduce reflectance by up to 75%, promising to enhance display readability and minimize screen reflection in almost any environment.
