Samsung’s Galaxy S II flagship smartphone, like its tablet sibling Galaxy Tab, now receive a scratch and damage resistance upgrade, over its 4.27-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen, provided by Corning’s Gorilla Glass.
As you may already know, the thin Corning Gorilla Glass is used as a damage-resistant, cover that offers up to four times the strength in breakage resistance, without impeding the functionality of the device, and in the same time improves the lifespan of the display.
“Corning Gorilla Glass has now become the leading strengthened glass standard for the continuously evolving mobile device market.” said James R. Steiner, senior vice president and general manager, Corning Specialty Materials. “Following last year’s cooperation on the GALAXY S and GALAXY Tab, we are excited to provide Corning’s unparalleled glass expertise for GALAXY S II.”
