Samsung's upcoming flagship device, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, will feature a privacy screen called Flex Magic Pixel. This will prevent anyone sitting nearby from seeing the phone's screen.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will get a special privacy screen

Samsung is preparing to launch its Galaxy S26 series next year. The Galaxy S26 Ultra, its flagship device, will feature a new feature that will significantly enhance your privacy. Samsung is also introducing a new hardware-level Flex Magic Pixel feature in the Ultra model. This will be a privacy screen that prevents videos or other content playing on the phone from being viewed from the side.

What is Flex Magic Pixel?

Until now, people have been using privacy screen protectors. This is a thin film that reduces the viewing angle, preventing the person sitting next to them from seeing what the user is seeing on the screen. However, this reduces brightness and distorts colors. To address this, Samsung is introducing a new Flex Magic Pixel. This feature can be turned on with a toggle and does not require a separate screen protector.

Samsung has been at the forefront of display innovation

Samsung has been at the forefront of display innovation and continues to introduce new innovations. The company introduced an anti-reflective coating on the S21 Ultra. It continued to refine this and equipped the S24 with Corning Gorilla Armor, making it the world's first phone to feature it. This eliminated the reflection issue and provided improved durability and scratch resistance to the screen.

Specifications of Galaxy S26 Ultra

This phone is expected to launch with a 6.9-inch M14 QHD+ CoE Dynamic AMOLED display. It is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. Regarding the camera, it is expected to feature a 200MP main camera, a 50MP periscope lens, a 50MP ultrawide sensor, and a 12MP telephoto lens. It is expected to be equipped with a 5,000mAh battery pack.
