Highlights Galaxy S24 Ultra features a ground-breaking 75% glare reduction display. Overlooked anti-glare feature outshines traditional durability focus. Public shows keen interest in the new display's anti-glare capabilities. Samsung missed highlighting this key innovation at the Unpacked event. Samsung’s Missed Opportunity on Galaxy S24 Ultra’s Game-Changing Anti-Glare Display Feature Leaves Tech Enthusiasts Disgruntled. The Galaxy Unpacked event on January 17 could be considered a testament to Samsung’s mastery in orchestrating high-tech showcases, characterised by impeccable lighting, fluent presentations, and a well-orchestrated rhythm. However, amidst this symphony of technological display, Samsung inadvertently downplayed a significant breakthrough – the revolutionary anti-glare properties of the Galaxy S24 Ultra's display, overshadowed by the more traditional features of durability and scratch resistance. Gorilla Glass Armor on Galaxy S24 Ultra Overlooked In my media briefing with Samsung, they mentioned the coating on the S24 Ultra (right) reduced glare by 75%...it's pretty evident here compared to the S23 Ultra (left) pic.twitter.com/CNPv8rPdEu — Daniel Scuteri | Tech with Benefits (@daniel_scuteri) January 18, 2024 While the event meticulously highlighted the robustness and scratch resistance of the new Gorilla Glass Armor, it glossed over its most impressive feature: the extraordinary anti-glare properties. This innovation marks a significant leap from the Galaxy S23 Ultra, with the new display reducing reflection by up to 75%, a feature lauded by users and tech enthusiasts on various social platforms. Comparative Advantage Lost in Presentation pic.twitter.com/wxXXOTxtyj — Ahmed Qwaider (@AhmedQwaider888) January 21, 2024 The real missed opportunity was the absence of a direct, side-by-side comparison with the previous year's flagship, the Galaxy S23 Ultra. We feel that such a demonstration would have vividly showcased the stark difference in glare reduction and display clarity. User-generated comparisons on platforms like Twitter have filled this gap, highlighting what Samsung's presentation could have significantly capitalized on. Public Reaction and the Need for Focused Marketing I have a question for @SamsungMobile @corninggorilla , whether the anti-reflective effect of the Corning Gorilla Armor Glass on the S24 Ultra will disappear over time. If not, that would be great. pic.twitter.com/Vpp6uUiutr — ICE UNIVERSE (@UniverseIce) January 22, 2024 The reaction from the public and online communities suggests a significant interest in the anti-glare feature, often overshadowed by more traditional smartphone attributes. From what we can find on X (formerly Twitter), comments from users and tech enthusiasts indicate a general consensus: Samsung missed a critical marketing opportunity. In a market where display quality is a paramount concern, focusing on durability alone, while essential, does not sufficiently emphasize the user experience enhancements brought by the new display technology. So What Did We Learn? Galaxy S24 Ultra features a ground-breaking 75% glare reduction display The Galaxy S24 Ultra undoubtedly sets a new standard in smartphone display technology, but Samsung’s presentation strategy at the Unpacked event did not do justice to this innovation. As the tech community continues to marvel at the anti-glare capabilities of the new device, it serves as a reminder for tech giants: sometimes, the most impactful features are not the most apparent ones and deserve the spotlight in marketing narratives. Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Creates New Standards of Durability and Visual Clarity With CorningR GorillaR Armor Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Creates New Standards of Durability and Visual Clarity With CorningR GorillaR Armor Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. and Corning Incorporated (NYSE: GLW) announced that Galaxy S24 Ultra devices will feature Corning’s new Corning® Gorilla® Armor cover material. Gorilla Armor offers an unparalleled combination of durability and visual clarity, delivering a richer display in sunlight and greater protection against damage caused by daily wear. “Corning’s Gorilla® Glass, together with the Galaxy S series, have driven innovation and made significant progress towards achieving greater durability,” said Kwangjin Bae, EVP and Head of the Mechanical R&D Team, Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “This partnership has made it possible for people to use our products with confidence and peace of mind.” Corning® Gorilla® Armor is a different kind of smartphone cover material. Compared to a typical glass surface, Corning Gorilla Armor reduces reflection by up to 75%, which enhances display readability and minimizes screen reflections in almost any environment. Corning’s new cover material optimizes durability on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. In Corning lab tests, Gorilla Armor demonstrated superior durability when compared against competitive aluminosilicate cover glasses. To measure its exceptional scratch resistance, Corning created a new lab test — the “Scratch Bot” — to replicate micro scratches caused by day-to-day wear. On this rigorous test, Gorilla Armor showed no visible scratches and demonstrated over four times more scratch resistance than competitive aluminosilicate cover glasses. Gorilla Armor contains an average of 25% pre-consumer recycled content, as validated by UL Solutions in accordance with UL2809-2 Environmental Claim Validation Procedure (ECVP) for Recycled Content. “Gorilla Armor brings Corning’s research and engineering prowess together with Samsung’s consumer-centric design and focus on user experience,” said David Velasquez, vice president and general manager, Corning® Gorilla® Glass. “This latest innovation simultaneously addresses both the need for durability and our increasing need for better optics – bringing the mobile phone experience of the future into the present.” The launch of Galaxy S24 Ultra phones with Gorilla Armor follows a celebratory year for Samsung and Corning. Last year marked 50 years of industry-leading partnership for the companies. Samsung and Corning first partnered in 1973 to make televisions more accessible to consumers in Korea. This same spirit of collaboration has been carried through half a century. Corning® Gorilla® Glass has been featured on countless Samsung devices, from some of the earliest Galaxy smartphones to the most recent, including the Galaxy S23 Series, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5, which all use Corning® Gorilla® Glass Victus® 2. The launch of Galaxy S24 Ultra devices with Gorilla Armor continues this longstanding relationship dedicated to creating world class innovations vital to the mobile consumer electronics industry.
