Honor Develops Privacy Display Technology, Samsung to Share with Competitors

Samsung's Galaxy S26 Ultra was launched earlier this year with the innovative Privacy Display feature, distinguishing it from competitors. However, according to recent rumors, Samsung Display plans to offer this technology to other smartphone manufacturers by the end of 2028.

Several Chinese Android manufacturers are eagerly awaiting this opportunity, while some are already collaborating with local display manufacturers to develop similar technologies. For instance, it has been reported that Xiaomi's 18 Pro might feature its own Privacy Display.

Additionally, Honor is rumored to be developing a comparable technology, partnering with a Chinese display panel manufacturer. The effectiveness of these Chinese-developed Privacy Display solutions compared to Samsung's offering is yet to be determined.

Honor is reportedly testing this technology on two forthcoming devices, one featuring a 6.3-inch screen and the other a 6.8-inch panel. These models are expected to be part of the Magic9 series, anticipated to launch later this year.

Clearly, Chinese manufacturers are closely observing Samsung's innovations in this area. Many consumers seem to appreciate this feature, although the specific implementation is crucial. More news about the Chinese-developed Privacy Displays is expected in the coming months, so stay tuned for updates.
