Summary
Four Galaxy S27 models — base, Plus, Pro and Ultra — are set to ship with Samsung’s privacy display as a standard feature next year, extending a capability previously limited to the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
The hardware-level filter blocks side-angle viewing inside the panel itself, with adjustable blackout strength and localized protection for items such as PIN entry or notifications.
Samsung’s foldables are not expected to get the feature on the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8 because applying it to folding panels still cuts resolution and brightness while raising power use.
Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO and vivo are also developing privacy-screen approaches, and Sigmaintell says the feature is becoming a key premium-display differentiator as vendors push beyond flat phones.
