The updated results on the relevant properties of graphene reinforced ceramic are reviewed. The representative data for a wide number of bulk composites are compared, making special emphasis on the mechanical properties (fracture toughness, strength), wear and friction characteristics, and elastic properties. The electrical functionality boosted by the contacted graphene network is critically assessed for conducting and dielectric matrices. Regarding thermal transport, the enhancement or depletion of thermal conductivity is revised considering for different matrices and for specific orientations. Furthermore, new developments on layered and coatings, as well as in cellular composites that certainly widen the scope of applications for these remarkable group of ceramic composites are looked over.
