Overview
- The Privacy Display feature described in the leak narrows viewing angles so content is visible head‑on but harder to see from the side.
- Settings include an Auto Privacy option that can switch on in crowded places such as buses, trains, cafés, and elevators, plus user scheduling.
- Users can set rules to trigger it for sensitive actions, including opening banking apps or entering a PIN.
- Controls indicate partial‑screen protection for items like notifications and picture‑in‑picture, with options to shield gallery images and lock‑screen credential entry.
- The leak says the capability requires new display hardware expected on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, with reports linking it to Samsung’s Flex Magic Pixel; Samsung has not announced the feature and timing is expected around the One UI 8.5 and S26 launch window.
