THE GALAXY S24 ULTRA SCREEN IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SCRATCH WITH GORILLA ARMOR
As Samsung launches its Galaxy S24 series, one new feature is particularly attracting attention for the Galaxy S24 Ultra: a screen protected by Gorilla Armor. It is a particularly resistant coating which is exclusive to this model. While the standard S24 and S24+ versions are equipped with traditional Gorilla Glass, the S24 Ultra benefits from “real armor” on its front. This protection, a Corning innovation, is a first for the company. It marks a notable difference with Gorilla Glass Victus 2, used on other models, by providing increased robustness to the screen, which is now flat, unlike the curved screen of the Galaxy S23 Ultra.
