Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Tipped to Get Next-Generation Gorilla Armor

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to arrive in January alongside the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+. Samsung is said to bring a few hardware changes to the next flagship smartphone with a new leak suggesting that it will get an upgraded anti-reflective technology. The South Korean tech brand is expected to use second-generation Gorilla Glass Armor from Corning in the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Samsung's Galaxy S24 Ultra was the first phone to sport Gorilla Armor.

Tipster Ice Universe (@UniverseIce) on X claimed that the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra will exclusively use the more powerful second-generation Corning Gorilla Armor glass with anti-reflective properties for its display. This year's Galaxy S24 Ultra is the first to come with Corning Gorilla Armor. It is claimed to be four times more scratch-resistant than competitive aluminosilicate cover glasses.

The new screen protector could be exclusive only to the Ultra model in the Galaxy S25 lineup. The leak comes a few days after several Galaxy S24 Ultra users complained about warped and stained screens issues online. Many reported peeling-off issues with their screens, including damage to the display's anti-reflective coating.
