Pixel 11 Pro displays are 'more than twice' as scratch-resistant
Key Points:
- Google’s Pixel 11 Pro and Pixel 11 Pro XL feature Gorilla Glass Victus 2 with a proprietary anti-scratch coating that offers more than twice the scratch resistance of previous Pixel models, backed by IP68 water and dust protection.
- The anti-scratch coating is extremely thin (800nm) and positioned between the glass and oleophobic layer, designed to withstand everyday abrasions from items like keys and nail files.
- The Pixel 11 Pro Fold uses a new ceramic glass material for its outer display and a glass fiber composite back cover described as “nearly impossible to crack,” making it three times more durable than its predecessor.
- Despite the outer display upgrades, the inner display of the Pixel 11 Pro Fold has not received significant durability improvements.
- All Pixel 11 Pro models, including the Fold, are available for pre-order through Google Store, Amazon, and Best Buy, with prices starting at $1,099 for the Pro and $1,899 for the Pro Fold.
