Samsung Galaxy S23 will come with excellent protection, thanks to Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2
Just a few days and we will meet the flagship smartphone of the year – Samsung Galaxy S23. Ahead of this, the company continuously advertises the products to create more user excitement. Recently, Samsung has officially confirmed that the Galaxy S23 series will use the Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for better durability.
Last month, Corning officially introduced the new Gorilla Glass Victus 2 with improved drop performance and durability on rough surfaces. And, the Samsung Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 Ultra phones will be the first to use this glass and take its durability advantage.
