Xiaomi to Feature Privacy Screen Technology Similar to Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra
Competition in the flagship smartphone market is intensifying, moving beyond chipset performance and camera quality to focus on personal data security. Recent reports suggest that Xiaomi is developing an innovative privacy screen feature predicted to be a strong competitor to similar technology found on the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. This move demonstrates Xiaomi’s ambition to remain at the forefront of global display innovation.
The privacy screen feature under development by Xiaomi is designed to dynamically limit the screen’s viewing angle. This technology allows content on the screen to be clearly visible only to the user positioned directly in front of the device, while bystanders to the side will only see a dark or blurred screen.
Unlike conventional privacy tempered glass, which is permanent, the technology in this Xiaomi device is reportedly based on software and the integration of a special panel layer that can be activated or deactivated according to the user’s needs. This provides high flexibility, particularly when users are in public spaces or on public transport.
While detailed specification data is still undergoing internal validation and awaiting official release from vendors, the implementation of this feature will certainly impact the user experience. Analysts predict this technology may debut on Xiaomi’s next flagship series to rival the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra in 2026.
The presence of this feature confirms that privacy is no longer merely an additional feature, but a fundamental necessity for modern smartphone users. The industry awaits how Xiaomi will execute this technology to provide added value to users worldwide, including in the Indonesian market.
