Samsung Galaxy Nexus has arrived on shelves in various markets in Europe, and is getting ready to make an appearance in the US and Canada as well in the near future, with some impressive capabilities packed inside.

One of them involves the large 4.65-inch touchscreen display that the device packs, which features a fortified glass and not the already popular Corning Gorilla Glass.

Those users who might have considered the screen on the first Ice Cream Sandwich handset to be less durable than it would have been if Corning's technology was packed with it should simply have a look at the video embedded above.

When one tries to scratch the screen using a set of keys, nothing happens, thus proving that the handset will deliver the level of durability expected from it. It will certainly be able to handle drops and repel scratches with ease.
