Overview
- A leaked settings interface shared by a known tipster and reported by GSMArena shows a 'Smart privacy display' menu with options to create groups and assign different apps to each privacy profile.
- The screenshots suggest an automatic 'page privacy display' that can activate protections for passwords, payments, transfers, and messaging, and that users must enable to use.
- The leak is said to come from a Global ROM but also shows features labeled China-ROM–only, such as 'Page privacy display' and 'Xiaomi Hyper XiaoAi groups,' which implies regional rollouts may differ.
- Coverage links the UI to Xiaomi's next flagships, the 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max, but Xiaomi has not confirmed the feature or the phones' specifications and launch timing.
- Hardware privacy displays limit viewing angles at the panel level for stronger shoulder‑surfing protection than software fixes, so a Xiaomi version would signal wider industry adoption and likely staggered availability for users.
