Samsung to broaden Privacy Display feature across Galaxy smartphone lineup

Samsung is planning to extend its Privacy Display technology to a wider range of Galaxy phones, according to reports. This feature, initially introduced earlier this year, utilizes Flex Magic Pixel to minimize light leakage and restrict viewing angles, safeguarding sensitive information like messages and photos.

The upcoming Galaxy S27 Pro and S27 Ultra are expected to receive an enhanced version of Privacy Display, though specifics of the upgrades remain undisclosed. However, the more affordable S27 and S27+ models will not be included in this update.

The S27 lineup is also rumored to feature a 200MP primary rear camera, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and a 16MP front-facing camera. The S27 Ultra is anticipated to include a 50MP telephoto lens with 5x optical zoom.

Images shared by tipster Ice Universe on X reveal distinct camera lens configurations across the S27, S27 Plus, S27 Pro, and S27 Ultra models, with the S27 Pro appearing slightly thicker than its counterparts.

Furthermore, Forbes reported that the S27 Pro and S27 Ultra will incorporate larger silicon-carbon batteries – 5,200mAh and 5,800mAh respectively. This technology allows for increased lithium-ion absorption, potentially leading to improved battery performance and longevity. Samsung has been contacted for comment.
