The Note 7 is the first phone made with Corning’s Gorilla Glass 5 which can fall from up to 1.6 meters (5 feet, 3 inches) onto rough, hard surfaces, according to Corning. That goes for the front and back of the phone.
Gorilla Glass 4 — found on the S7 Edge — maxes out at about 1 meter (3 feet, 2 inches) onto rough surfaces. Like the Note 7, Gorilla Glass is on the front and back of the S7 Edge.
