    Isn’t it gorilla victus? I thought they are supposed to be one of the toughest in market. In any case I always get a protector for every mobile I get so I don’t have to worry about these that much.

      Usually with mobile glass, and I think this applies to victus 2, the glass is super resistant to breakage, so it’s super tough. However it is not notably less resistant to scratching

      No one has quite perfected a display that is super resistant to scratches as well as breakage.

      Here’s an article I found that mentions victus 2 isn’t more scratch resistant than original victus, which aligns with what I mentioned above.

      I’ll be putting on a tempered glass screen protector, especially since the 8 pro has a flat screen, finally.

        Oh they definitely aren’t perfect but should easily resist scratches from keys and what not with normal usage. I don’t see why it is considered to be easily scratch able compared to other mobiles. I also get protection on all sides no matter what.

      I thought so as well but there are quite a few reddit threads and support queries related to scratched displays. Maybe there’s a few bad batches of gorilla glass floating around on the pixel 7.
