A rumor from this weekend claims that Samsung’s upcoming Ultra flagship will come with self-healing glass that’s able to recover from minor scratches on its own.Late last week, industry observer Schrödinger took to X to say that Corning and Samsung are jointly working on “a new self-healing surface coating” for the next iteration of the former’s Gorilla Armor glass. This coating would certainly be less scratch-resistant than conventional tempered glass, but if it’s able to fill in hairline scratches on its own, that trade-off could be worth it.
