It was claimed that the clever feature, which blacks out screen content for all but the phone’s user, would be coming to the entire Samsung Galaxy S27 range early next year.
Now a new report from the region suggests this may not be the case.
According to ETNews, Samsung will deploy its Privacy Display technology only in the Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra and Galaxy S27 Pro models, leaving the Samsung Galaxy S27 and its Plus variant with regular screens.
There are also fresh rumours of a super-slim Galaxy S27 Edge model, which presumably will also miss out.

Samsung’s privacy plans
This move is being positioned as a means to differentiate Samsung’s two premium models from the two regular options, which makes a lot of sense.
Of course, with rivals such as Huawei already looking to implement similar technology into a new form factors such as foldables, Samsung can’t afford to be too stingy with its breakthrough features.
