Design
The front of the phone is almost entirely flat, and the AMOLED screen is protected by a flat piece of Gorilla Glass 5. The glass is known for its good shatter resistance, though it isn’t as great as scratches are concerned. Note that if you put a glass shield on, you will also need to re-register your fingerprints for better accuracy. Weight distribution is great weighing 189 grams.
