The Galaxy S26 Ultra's privacy display is a game-changer for those who value their privacy. Leaks reveal a feature that could make snoopers struggle to see what's on your screen.
The S26 Ultra's privacy display is designed to keep your screen content hidden from prying eyes. This is a serious privacy concern, especially in public spaces. The leaks show that the display is effective in preventing people from peeking, even without the maximum privacy protection setting.
In one leak, Noah Cat posted images of the standard and maximum privacy protection settings. The standard option appears to obfuscate fairly well, stopping all but intentional snooping. The maximum setting ramps this up, with the image appearing almost full reflection. Another leak, a video by Tech YouTuber Sahil Karoul, shows the S26 Ultra in motion. Even without the maximum privacy protection enabled, viewing the screen from a 45-degree angle appears tricky.
This privacy display tech is a bonus to what is already looking like an impressive S26 Ultra display. According to rumored specs, the Ultra will deliver:
- 6.9-inch QHD+ (1440 x 3120) Dynamic AMOLED
- Capable of 120 Hz refresh rate
- 3rd-gen anti-reflective coating
- Corning Gorilla Armor 2
