Samsung Confirms Galaxy S26 Privacy Display Mode
A Settings leak showing built-in screen shielding and a glassy One UI refresh has been officially confirmed ahead of the next Galaxy flagship cycle.
Samsung has effectively confirmed that the Galaxy S26 will ship with a built-in Privacy Display, a native mode that limits what people nearby can see on the screen.
The feature appeared this week inside official One UI 8.5 materials, where a dedicated toggle is visible in the settings menu. The listing follows earlier animations and leak reports, leaving little doubt it’s headed for the next flagship cycle.

Privacy Display works like a hardware filter, tightening viewing angles so content fades when seen from the side. Samsung describes it simply: “Prevent others from seeing what’s on your screen. Privacy display makes the screen less visible when viewed from a side angle. You can turn it on when you need it or set conditions for turning it on automatically”.
Similar tech has surfaced before. A video shot at Mobile World Congress showed Samsung’s Flex Magic Pixel prototype demonstrating the same effect.

One UI 8.5 also points to a broader visual shift, with more translucent panels and glass-like animations. The look mirrors Apple’s recent “Liquid Glass” push. For Samsung, it’s a practical upgrade and a design reset in one go — privacy baked into the display, not bolted on.

DJI Teases Dual-Camera Osmo Pocket 4P For 2026 Launch
Though most technical claims for the new gimbal come from industry leaks rather than DJI’s own announcement.
DJI has teased a dual-camera version of its Osmo Pocket gimbal, confirming that the Osmo Pocket 4P will launch in 2026. The teaser image is the company’s first preview of the device, following months of speculation about a more advanced model in its pocket camera range.
The image shows a slightly larger device than the existing Osmo Pocket 4, with two camera modules mounted above a compact three-axis gimbal. Reports suggest one camera may use a 1-inch sensor paired with a wide-angle lens, while the second may carry a 3x zoom lens — though DJI has not officially confirmed any of these details.
According to leaks circulating ahead of the launch, the Osmo Pocket 4P could support 4K video at up to 240 frames per second, offer 14 stops of dynamic range and include 10-bit D-Log color support. Those features are commonly used by filmmakers who require greater flexibility during color grading and post-production. Reports also point to Hasselblad color tuning, continuing a partnership that has already appeared in some of DJI’s drone cameras, along with up to 128GB of built-in storage that would reduce reliance on external memory cards during longer shoots.

The device is expected to retain features from the existing Osmo Pocket 4, including a three-axis mechanical gimbal, updated ActiveTrack subject tracking and a flip-out touchscreen display. The Osmo Pocket line is aimed at content creators, vloggers, and independent filmmakers seeking compact equipment that can produce usable footage without a larger camera system.
DJI has not provided pricing or a specific launch date beyond the 2026 window. Industry observers expect the Osmo Pocket 4P to cost more than the standard Pocket 4 because of the dual-camera setup and expanded recording capabilities, though no figures have been disclosed. So far, most of the technical detail circulating around the product remains tied to leaks rather than official confirmation.
