Samsung set the industry standard by introducing Privacy Display on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which enables hardware-level screen dimming to shake off shoulder surfers. While some brands have already revealed their own take on this feature, the freshly announced Xiaomi 18 Pro series takes it to another level with Smart Privacy Display. We’re now learning that Samsung may introduce at least one of the Xiaomi flagship’s privacy-oriented features in its early 2027 smartphone.
Writing on X, leaker Ice Universe claims the Xiaomi 18 Pro’s unique split-screen privacy protection system will make its way to the Galaxy S27 Ultra. This split-screen privacy mechanism cleverly dims only one app, even as you resize it, while keeping the other in its normal, visible state.
