- The Galaxy S26 Ultra introduces a 'Privacy Display' feature, a first in smartphones, designed to hide screen content from onlookers by altering pixel light emission.
- Privacy Display can be toggled manually or set to activate automatically with specific apps, enhancing user privacy without constant manual intervention.
- A standout feature is the ability to apply privacy settings selectively, such as hiding only notification pop-ups, without affecting the rest of the display.
- The feature slightly reduces display brightness and makes pixels more visible, but these trade-offs are deemed acceptable for the privacy benefits.
- Samsung's implementation is praised as potentially the most innovative smartphone feature in years, with high effectiveness in early demos.
- The Galaxy S26 series is now available for pre-order, with special promotions running until the phones hit stores on March 11.
