Good to see Gorilla Glass Victus 2 only getting scratches at level 8 and deeper grooves at level 9.

So I should be able to continue using it with no screen protection, like I do with my Note9 with GG5.

Yes of course you'll need a case, especially for a phone if this size & weight.

    Congrats Samsung for getting a 9 out of 10 repairability.
    Rare these days

      Even if it's indestructible, still doesn't justify its rocket-high price.

        the rich will most likely buy those high ends ... the ultras, the pro max, the folds ... why bother to repair ??? just buy another

        the repair and user removable battery are needed for mid to low ends

        the industries ... never care

          Scratches at level 8 is a minor improvement?! This is the first phone with that kind of scratch protection, I'd say it's a huge improvement.

            And like always, samsung selling a garbage build quality on their flagships

            The S22 series broke on the very first drop, and this S23 Ultra is the same

            Corning and Samsung must be sued for misleading customers
