the premium Galaxy S series. The initial Galaxy S26 speculations have surfaced, featuring an intriguing report from Korea about a unique display capability of the Galaxy S26 Ultra that aims to enhance user privacy. It is said that the device will incorporate a Flex Magic Pixel display, a technology that utilizes AI to render the display unseen to anyone other than the user.
Privacy screen protectors are not a novel concept. They have been available in the market for many years. If you’re concerned about individuals nearby perceiving the information on your smartphone or laptop displays, you can opt for a privacy display protector. This protector should safeguard the screen from inadvertent damage while simultaneously obstructing bystanders from viewing your confidential data.
Introduced at MWC 2024, Flex Magic Pixel displays will ensure the screen remains unseen by onlookers without necessitating the purchase of a screen protector. As per Samsung, Flex Magic Pixel modifies the viewing angle of the display so that only the user can observe the content. Samsung can utilize AI to automate this feature for particular tasks that demand heightened privacy. For instance, AI may recognize when you are using a mobile banking application and activate the Flex Magic Pixel capability to stop those nearby from watching you enter your password and manage your financial activities while on the move.
Samsung presented the Flex Magic Pixel displays in February 2024, stating the technology was developed in November 2023. Samsung did not disclose any intentions to integrate Flex Magic Pixel panels into any Galaxy smartphones. No other rival devices include comparable display technology. Samsung frequently showcases display prototypes at trade fairs; here are additional screen advancements from MWC 2024.
