Galaxy S26 Ultra Leak Reveals New Privacy Display Feature.

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra will feature Privacy Display, dimming the screen at angles to protect your privacy, as revealed in recent leaks.

Samsung has been developing a new feature for the Galaxy S26 Ultra called Privacy Display.  This feature is designed to dim or hide the display when viewing the device at an angle, preventing others from taking unwanted peeks.  Back in September 2025, we spotted code within a claimed build of One UI 8.5 that revealed some information concerning the functionality.  The next month, more information was exposed when the planned UI for Privacy Display leaked.  Another leak has just dropped, and it shows us how this function will work.

According to SammyGuru, there’s a listing for Privacy Display buried in Samsung’s new Tips app.  The website claims it was able to surface this page by utilizing a mobile that was disguised as a Galaxy S26 Ultra.

On this page, you’ll find the animation below, along with a few facts regarding the functionality.  As we learned from prior leaks, Privacy Display would make the screen less visible when seen from a side angle.  You’ll have the opportunity to switch it on or off and define precise conditions for it to activate automatically, such as when you’re in a crowded environment.

Based on the animation, it appears that you’ll find Privacy Display sitting in the Display part of the Settings app.  It seems there will also be a toggle for the feature in Quick Settings.

The Tips site also appears to include a second animation that shows out what Privacy Display looks like.  Just as the description mentioned, the screen gets less apparent when viewing the panel from an angle.  This is true, regardless of whether you’re observing it from the top, bottom, or either side.

With these newly found animations, we now have more evidence than ever that Privacy Display will likely be one of the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s new features when it debuts.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is supposedly getting a camera enhancement that beyond the typical humdrum.

The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will produce significantly more natural-looking photographs, despite its lack of an upgraded sensor.

What’s one grievance that many Samsung phone owners have had for a few years?  The camera, which has undergone relatively minor changes, and sees the same sensors repeatedly getting reused.  Though the Galaxy S26 Ultra isn’t receiving a new sensor just yet, it is getting an upgrade—other than the wider aperture—which many will welcome with open arms.

Galaxy S26 Ultra embraces reality.

According to yet another report on this topic, a first-hand testimony it seems, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will be embracing realism over high contrast and highly saturated photos.  The phone’s main camera will cut down on the post-photo processing and instead deliver the user an image that far more precisely represents the scene around them.

Not the only camera enhancement, either.

This software-side boost isn’t the only camera upgrade that Samsung is putting to the Galaxy S26 Ultra.  As reported earlier, a sensor upgrade isn’t planned, but the phone is going to acquire a bigger aperture.  In fact, this is why the rear camera hump is apparently making a return.

A wider aperture for the main camera implies that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will generate substantially better photographs in difficult lighting scenarios.  More detail will be found on objects in shadow, and the phone will generally have a lot more information to work with when you’ll be snapping photographs.

There are suggestions that the Galaxy S27 Ultra might have a sensor upgrade, but the Galaxy S26 Ultra will, by no means, be a slouch when it comes to photography.

A very pleasant change for some.

Some people prefer more saturated photographs, and that’s OK, but for users like me, more natural-looking images are a compelling marketing tool for a smartphone.  When I snap a picture, I want my phone to show me what I’m seeing at that moment with my own eyes.  Then again, I’m generally a purist when it comes to some things, so your mileage may vary.

A bigger aperture and more natural tones won’t help the Galaxy S26 Ultra overcome Chinese competition with substantially better sensors—like the Xiaomi 17 Ultra—but it’s clearly a step in the right way.  It also offers me encouragement for phone makers working towards more natural, realistic photography, lest we copy Apple’s AI processing on the iPhone, which often displays gibberish lettering on signs and billboards.

Galaxy S26 Ultra Pricing and Expectations.

As Samsung sets up for the Galaxy S26 Ultra release, affordability remains a significant consideration.  Estimates estimate a possible price jump of 44,000 to 88,000 won, or $31 to $62 per model.  This might equal to a retail price of around:

1. Galaxy S26 Base: $859.

2. Galaxy S26 Plus: $1,059.

3. Galaxy S26 Ultra: $1,359.

Market considerations, notably growing memory prices due to increased demand from the AI industry, may influence these expenses.  Samsung executives have warned that “no company is immune” to these difficulties, leading to possible adjustments in their pricing policy.

What’s Next for Galaxy S26 Buyers?

As Samsung prepares for the Galaxy S26 Ultra launch, prospective consumers should stay updated regarding pricing and advertising efforts.  With high memory prices on the horizon, future discounts may differ substantially from prior deals.  Keeping a check on Samsung’s bundled deals or anticipated rises in prices for other series, like the Galaxy A, may provide insights into the company’s overall strategy.

So, Stay back for future updates as the launch date approaches and further data about the Galaxy S26 series emerge.
