Leaked Hands-On Points to Powerful Privacy Display on Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra

Official details are pending ahead of a launch expected in late February.

Overview

  • Tipster Ahmed Qwaider reports the S26 Ultra’s screen keeps full brightness and color for the user while appearing nearly black from side angles when Privacy Display is enabled.
  • The feature can be set to switch on automatically for specific apps or based on context such as location or time, according to the leak.
  • The underlying panel tech tracks to Samsung Display’s Flex/Magic Pixel concept shown at MWC 2024, which adjusts viewing angles and could pair with AI for security behaviors.
  • Coverage disagrees on whether the capability will be exclusive to the Ultra model or also reach the Galaxy S26 and S26+.
  • Samsung has not confirmed device-level availability, with announcements for the S26 lineup expected late February and retail likely to follow in March.
