Leaked One UI 8.5 Demo Points to ‘Privacy Display’ on Galaxy S26 Ultra

A new leak shows angle-based dimming and system controls in action, though Samsung has not confirmed the feature.

Overview

  • An animation shared by leakers depicts a screen that stays clear head‑on but dims from side, top, or bottom angles to deter shoulder‑surfing.
  • Leaked settings indicate a Quick Settings toggle plus options to auto‑enable the feature for specific apps or conditions.
  • The tool appears to run at the system level, covering notifications and supported apps, which could reduce reliance on physical privacy screen protectors.
  • Reports point to an initial debut on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, with the possibility of expanding to other S26 models later.
  • All details stem from code strings and demo materials rather than an official announcement, leaving hardware requirements and final availability unverified.
