Samsung is expected to launch its Galaxy S23 phones at an Unpacked even on February 1. The new glass is the successor to Corning Gorilla Glass 4. ![]() While these numbers don't sound all that exciting in the abstract, the generations of Gorilla Glass do show the continual improvement in shatter resistance over the years. Selfie-fumblers rejoice: Corning says Gorilla Glass 5 survives up to 80 percent of the time when dropped from 1.6 meters. Victus 2 is rated for “fracture toughness” of 0.82 Megapascals per m0.5, up from 0.76 in original Victus. However, when you dig into the stats you will see slightly better fracture stats in the new generation. They both aim for 2m drop protection, which makes sense when that’s the height of a rather tall person. The core drop tests Corning submits Victus and Victus 2 to are roundly the same. It suggests the compositions of Victus and Victus 2 glass are quite different in some respects. This is actually much closer to the result of trusty old Gorilla Glass 5, which loses 5.9mg. This year Corning is hoping to save us another trip to the phone doctor with Gorilla Glass 5, which has been specifically designed to withstand drops from waist to shoulder height onto. Some of the most stark differences between Victus and Victus 2 are found in areas that, with any luck, you’ll never get a chance to test.įor example, after being sat in a Hydrochloric acid solution for 24 hours, Victus loses 49.9mg per square cm, to just 3.6mg in Victus 2. Aside from protection of devices against breakage from drops, Corning Gorilla Glass 5 is also said to deliver highest optical clarity and touch sensitivity. It offers better resistance to cracking from drops and was first used on the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 in 2016. In our lab tests, Gorilla Glass 5 survives up to. Gorilla Glass 5 was introduced on July 20, 2016. ![]() You areĬhemical properties more similar to standard Gorilla Glass Launched in 2016, Corning Gorilla Glass 5 raised the bar for protection against damage from drops. It is also just slightly denser than original Victus, at 2.41g/cm3 from 2.40g/cm3. Victus 2 increases the “scratch threshold” from 7-10 Newtons to 8-10 Newtons.
