Overview
- Flex Magic Pixel is reported to use AI to narrow viewing angles so on‑screen content remains visible only from head‑on, acting like a built‑in privacy filter.
- Samsung Display previously demonstrated the technology at MWC and K‑Display 2025, showing how it integrates privacy without the usual brightness penalties of add‑on films.
- Multiple outlets cite DealSite and tipster Jukanlosreve as the source of claims, and Samsung has not confirmed the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s inclusion or any exclusivity.
- Reports suggest the Ultra may pair Flex Magic Pixel with Color Filter on Encapsulation to offset light loss and improve brightness and color on a non‑foldable phone.
- Coverage indicates the feature could expand to next‑year foldables such as the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Flip 8, with the S26 series expected around January 2026.
