The Galaxy S8 Active, which went official last month in the US, could be a perfect smartphone for many people. It has not only all the niceties of the Galaxy S8, but also a stronger body, a shatter-resistant screen, and a larger battery. However, the shatter-resistant screen comes with a caveat. It could catch scratches pretty quickly.
A lot of consumers who purchased the Galaxy S8 Active from AT&T and posted their reviews mention that the phone’s 5.8-inch shatter-resistant screen gets scuffs and scratches pretty easily, even when the phone was in their pocket. This is due to a lamination technology (material that’s softer than glass panels used in other phones) that is used to make the screen shatter-resistant. The Galaxy S7 Active also faced similar problems.
Motorola uses a similar technology for the Moto Z2 Force’s ShatterShield display. The company even runs a program that helps consumers in replacing these scratched and scuffed panels with new ones for 30 bucks each. Unless Samsung starts a similar program, Galaxy S8 Active owners might have to live with more scratches than they’re accustomed to from phones with harder glass covers.
