The Samsung Galaxy S26 series will be officially released at 2 a.m. on February 26, bringing three models: Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. in,Samsung S26 Ultra will be the world’s first anti-peep screen, bringing a higher level of privacy protection.
According to digital blogger "i Ice Universe", Samsung S26 Ultra adopts a physical anti-peep screen design and adds a controllable viewing angle optical structure inside the screen to physically narrow the side-view visible range.
To put it simply, the screen itself "controls light" rather than superimposing blur effects through algorithms.
Unlike traditional privacy films,This screen supports dynamic control, and the privacy mode can be turned on or off with one click in the system settings to achieve one-click switching.
The system can also automatically trigger privacy protection based on user-set scenarios. For example, when opening a banking or payment app, or when sensitive content such as verification codes and payment information appears in public environments such as subways and elevators, privacy protection will be automatically turned on.
It is worth mentioning that this generation of technology also supports partial privacy protection.The system can narrow the viewing angle only for sensitive areas, such as verification code pop-up windows, small window videos, etc. The front display is normal, but it will quickly darken when viewed from the side.
According to blogger Sahil Karoul's actual demonstration, after turning on the Privacy display function, when viewing the Samsung S26 Ultra screen from an oblique angle, the content will be difficult to identify, and the effect is similar to applying a privacy film.
