Even though the entire lineup is said to be <a href=\"https:\/\/wccftech.com\/samsung-galaxy-s26-series-reportedly-attracting-underwhelming-pre-orders\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">attracting lower pre-orders<\/a>, the Korean giant can still offset the underwhelming reception with its top-end flagship. Now, one tipster has shared a promotional video on how the privacy display will work on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, and if you\u2019re someone who isn\u2019t fond of prying eyes sifting through your conversations, this technology will specifically cater to you.<\/p>\n<p>Metro, subways, bus stations, restaurants, or even the workplace are areas where privacy gets compromised, giving the Galaxy S26 Ultra a tremendous opportunity<\/p>\n<p>On X, Samsung Mobile US shared a video below of one of the features arriving to the Galaxy S26 Ultra. A woman is sitting in the subway going through what appears to be a story from a book, but on her left and right sides, two individuals cannot seem to mind their own business and continue to peek into the display\u2019s contents. We are certain that this problem is encountered by millions who have to commute to and from crowded places, with people standing or sitting next to you having a propensity to go through your private conversations.<\/p>\n<p>While not visibly irritated, the woman taps on a single-touch toggle shown in the video titled \u2018Zero-peeking privacy,\u2019 turning the Galaxy S26 Ultra\u2019s display completely black. However, we don\u2019t know whether the content will be visible only to the woman or whether there are additional settings that provide broader functionality. Prominent tipster and leaker Ice Universe has previously said that the privacy screen will <a href=\"https:\/\/wccftech.com\/galaxy-s26-ultra-privacy-display-addresses-concerns-rather-than-incremental-upgrades\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">address actual problems<\/a>\u00a0as opposed to companies introducing incremental upgrades, such as higher refresh rates and peak brightness levels, which offer little to no benefit to users.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve also discussed that if this privacy display technology takes off, it can open the door to increased adoption, creating a whole ecosystem. For instance, banking institutions or cryptocurrency applications can partner with Samsung to help protect the highly sensitive credentials of users. In short, the possibilities are incredible and vast, but only if the Korean firm enforces this practice. For now, check out the video above and let us know what you think about the feature in the comments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"source\">News Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SamsungMobileUS\/status\/2022702374528090227?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Samsung Mobile US<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-style: italic; border-top: 1px solid var(--gray-300); padding-top: 10px; margin-top: 20px;\">Follow <a id=\"google_preferred_source_link_single\" href=\"https:\/\/profile.google.com\/cp\/Cg0vZy8xMWM3NDB2MmIyGgA\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wccftech on Google<\/a> to get more of our news coverage in your feeds.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The privacy screen is expected to be a heavily marketed feature during Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Unpacked event, and it&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":477699,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[49,48,190,61],"class_list":{"0":"post-477698","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mobile","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-mobile","11":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/477698","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=477698"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/477698\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/477699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=477698"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=477698"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=477698"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
