Samsung S24 Ultra tempered glass – best protection in the test 2025

When it comes to a high-end phone like the Samsung S24 Ultra, choosing a screen protector is especially important. In this article, we'll go over which tempered glass works best for the S24 Ultra — based on testing, experience, and practice.

Why does the S24 Ultra require particularly good protection?

The S24 Ultra has a large curved display, a sensitive fingerprint reader, and a premium build. Affordable protection can cause:

  • inaccurate touch
  • decreased sensitivity to touch
  • Bubbles or glass peeling at the edges

Which tempered glass performs best in this test?

According to our test, the best option is:

  • Hydrogel film / armor film — the best option for a curved screen and a phone that fits on a stick or in a pocket
  • Framed glass, shaped for S24 Ultra — if you want a glass-like surface but a secure installation

Most traditional 2.5D or 3D glasses lost touch sensitivity in the test; many lightweight glasses also had bubbles around the edges within the first day.

How do you make sure the protection works on the S24 Ultra?

  • Clean the screen thoroughly before installation — even a small dust particle will prevent complete adhesion.
  • Use a mounting frame with a frame if you are using glass — ensure glass alignment and symmetry.
  • If you use hydrogel, make sure it covers the entire curved surface and leaves no air space around the edges.
  • Opt for glass or film with a good oleophobic coating — it reduces fingerprints and improves the feel.
