We showed you earlier that someone was able to buy a Galaxy S26 Ultra super early by paying an enormous sum of money<\/a> in Dubai. They have since gone on to showcase as much of this unreleased Samsung flagship phone as they possibly can, but there\u2019s one feature that we were the most interested in seeing. We\u2019re talking abut the new Privacy Display setting that Samsung started hyping for the S26 Ultra a few weeks ago.<\/p>\n

GALAXY S26 ULTRA PRIVACY DISPLAY<\/p>\n

The fresh owner of this unreleased Galaxy S26 Ultra is Sahil Karoul and he took to Instagram<\/a> to show just how Privacy Display will work. It\u2019s pretty simple, honestly, as there is a single toggle to turn it off or on and that gives you privacy.<\/p>\n

As we talked about a few weeks back<\/a>, Samsung has basically just built in a privacy screen, like you can currently buy as an accessory that attaches to your phone\u2019s display. A software toggle enables this setting, which provides a shaded view of your screen when you aren\u2019t looking directly at it. The idea here is that prying eyes won\u2019t be able to look over your shoulder or off to the side to see (potentially private) content on your screen.<\/p>\n

There are a number of settings involved here. For one, you can turn on Privacy Display and it\u2019ll then give you a touch of shadow at off angles. However, you can drill down in for more settings, including a \u201cMaximum privacy protection\u201d that will \u201cMake the screen even more difficult to view when Privacy display is on.\u201d It does mention that with this activated, it may \u201caffect normal viewing.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are also options for when it might automatically turn on, including with specific apps, for notification pop-ups, and if you are at a screen that requires PIN, pattern, or password.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know what else Samsung has in-store for the Galaxy S26 Ultra that will win us over, but this is a pretty useful new feature.<\/p>\n
