Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra set to debut with advanced Gorilla Armour Glass

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will launch in January 2025 and feature next-gen Gorilla Armour Glass with better durability and anti-reflective properties.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is rumoured to showcase Corning’s next-generation Gorilla Armour glass, promising a tougher and more refined experience.

According to a reliable tipster, @UniverseIce, who shared the news on X (formerly Twitter), the Galaxy S25 Ultra will “exclusively use the more powerful second-generation Corning Gorilla Armour Glass with anti-reflective properties.” This development comes after the Galaxy S24 Ultra, launched earlier this year, debuted with the first-generation Gorilla Armour.

What makes the new Gorilla Armour special?

The first-generation Gorilla Armour, featured on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, already offered significant improvements. It could withstand drops and scratches three to four times better than other aluminosilicate cover glasses. In addition, it reduced screen reflectance by up to 75%.

The upcoming second-generation Gorilla Armour Glass will enhance these qualities even further. Better anti-reflective properties could provide clearer visibility in bright environments, making using your phone outdoors easier. The durability is also set to improve, which could mean fewer worries about accidental drops or scratches.

This upgrade is an exciting step forward for those who value a robust smartphone with excellent performance.

When can you expect the Galaxy S25 Ultra?

Samsung traditionally unveiled its flagship Galaxy S series in January, and the Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to follow this trend. Rumours suggest the launch will occur in the second half of January 2025.

If youโ€™re considering upgrading, the S25 Ultra is shaping up to be a compelling option. Its exclusive use of the next-gen Gorilla Armour could set a new smartphone durability and performance standard.

Why it matters

The inclusion of Corning’s advanced Gorilla Armour Glass underscores Samsungโ€™s commitment to offering cutting-edge technology in its flagship devices. With a focus on durability, clarity, and user experience, the Galaxy S25 Ultra could cater to those who demand more from their smartphones.

For now, all eyes are on Samsungโ€™s January launch event, where the full specifications and features of the Galaxy S25 Ultra will finally be unveiled.
