Corning Gorilla Armor 2 claims to withstand head-high drops from 2.2 meters.

Introduction
Samsung is pushing the boundaries of smartphone durability with the Galaxy S25 Ultra, equipped with Corning Gorilla Armor 2. The new ceramic glass promises unmatched drop resistance, claiming to survive head-high drops from a staggering 2.2 meters (7.2 feet) onto concrete.
Unprecedented Durability
The Galaxy S25 Ultra’s ceramic Gorilla Armor 2 builds on its predecessor's success, offering twice the durability compared to the previous generation. Tested in controlled lab environments, a weighted puck-sized object survived face-down drops from 2.2 meters. However, Samsung and Corning caution that real-world outcomes may vary based on factors like impact angles and surface conditions.
Maintaining Scratch Resistance
Unlike previous iterations, this ceramic glass maintains excellent scratch resistance without compromise. According to Corning, it offers “four times more scratch resistance” than competitive lithium-aluminosilicate glasses with anti-reflective coatings. Additionally, the material cuts down on reflections, ensuring a premium viewing experience.
Limited Availability
The Gorilla Armor 2 glass will only be featured on Samsung’s flagship Ultra model, starting at $1,299. Unfortunately, the enhanced durability won’t extend to other Galaxy S25 variants, emphasizing its exclusivity for premium customers.
Comparison to Apple’s Ceramic Shield
This isn’t the first ceramic glass innovation. Apple’s Ceramic Shield, introduced in 2020, brought durability improvements to iPhones. However, Samsung’s latest offering aims to set a new benchmark for smartphone glass technology.
Conclusion
With Corning Gorilla Armor 2, the Galaxy S25 Ultra marks a significant step forward in smartphone durability, promising unparalleled resistance against drops and scratches. While the real-world impact is yet to be tested, this innovation could redefine the longevity of high-end smartphones. Stay tuned for more updates and hands-on reviews at Kushal Bharat Tech News!
