Nearly one in four Europeans2 (24%) admit to looking at someone else’s phone out of curiosity, exposing a stream of private content from personal photos to bank details. Samsung Electronics surveyed 11,000 Europeans2 to support the launch of the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which introduces a built-in Privacy Display. This new hardware-based technology keeps screen content visible only from the front to protect privacy from side angles, without compromising the viewing experience3. The study further reveals a gap between perceived phone privacy and reality: While 48%* feel their own phone use is private when using it in crowded places, 52%** find it easy to view someone else’s screen in public.
