Overview

• ETNews and other outlets report the S26 Ultra will pair Samsung Display’s new M14 OLED material set with CoE technology for a brighter, thinner and more efficient panel.
• CoE is said to eliminate the traditional polarizer by building anti‑reflective properties into the encapsulation layer, improving light transmittance and longevity.
• Flex Magic Pixel hardware is reportedly included to power an on‑demand Privacy Display that narrows side‑angle visibility to deter shoulder surfing.
• One UI 8.5 code strings describe Privacy Display controls such as Manual and Maximum modes, auto‑activation for crowded places or sensitive apps, and app‑level or scheduled use.
• These display upgrades are reported to be exclusive to the Ultra, with S26 Pro and S26 Edge expected to retain M13 panels, and a separate leak says Exynos 2600 is nearing mass production without confirmation it will ship in the Ultra.
