Four years ago, Apple debuted a new glass formulation on the iPhone 12, dubbed Ceramic Shield, and this year, it’s upping the game with an even stronger version in the iPhone 16 lineup that it claims is twice as durable and 50% tougher than the original.

Despite the increased durability of the new 'Ceramic Shield' on the iPhone 16 and 16 Pro, the phones can still crack if dropped face down, according to tests conducted by Allstate.
