January 29, 2026, 1:36 AM EST. Samsung is teasing a built-in privacy layer for the Galaxy S26 Ultra that would shield screen content from shoulder-surfers without an external glass screen. In a brief press note, Samsung described the feature as a way to give users a choice over who can see what, including app-level controls and adjustable visibility settings for entering sensitive details. The company did not name the feature or specify whether it uses a traditional privacy screen or a more advanced, content-aware approach, and there is no indication the system will require extra hardware. The materials offer no mention of Qi2 compatibility, leaving questions about power or charging integration. Analysts warn the concept would require on-device recognition of content, user, and context to activate effectively.
