TL;DR<\/p>\n
Samsung Display is known for creating some of the most innovative display technologies in the industry. The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra\u2019s Privacy Displa<\/a>y is one recent example of its many technological achievements in the smartphone display space. Now, at SID Display Week 2026 in Los Angeles, the company has unveiled a bunch of new tech, including a super colorful smartphone OLED panel and a phone display that can double as a health sensor.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n Samsung\u2019s new \u201cFlex Chroma Pixel\u201d OLED is all about pushing color and brightness beyond what we\u2019re used to on phones.<\/p>\n The company says it can hit up to 3,000 nits of brightness in high brightness mode, which is seriously bright for outdoor use. More importantly, it covers 96% of the BT.2020 color space. Samsung\u2019s press release highlights that this is a standard set by the International Telecommunication Union that defines ultrawide color ranges for modern displays.<\/p>\n In simple terms, this panel may be able to show more accurate and richer colors than most current smartphone screens.<\/p>\n Samsung says it pulled this off using new display materials and its in-house LEAD tech, while still keeping power use and panel lifespan under control, something that\u2019s usually a trade-off in OLED displays.<\/p>\n A display that can check your health\n<\/p>\n The second big reveal is the new \u201cSensor OLED,\u201d a 6.8-inch smartphone-sized display that doesn\u2019t just show content, it can also measure things like heart rate and blood pressure. Samsung has been working on this tech for a while<\/a>, but this year\u2019s showcase adds something extra to the mix.<\/p>\n The new Sensor OLED embeds organic photodiodes directly into the display. These sensors use light emitted by the screen to measure blood flow, so there\u2019s no need for separate hardware like you\u2019d find in smartwatches<\/a>.<\/p>\n Despite packing in extra sensing tech, Samsung says it managed to reach 500 PPI resolution, in line with flagship smartphones<\/a>. That\u2019s notable because fitting both display pixels and sensors into the same layer is technically tricky.<\/p>\n There\u2019s also a privacy angle \u2014 that little \u201cextra\u201d magic we spoke about earlier. Samsung\u2019s \u201cFlex Magic Pixel\u201d tech, essentially the Privacy Display tech on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, is also baked into the new Sensor OLED. It can hide sensitive data, such as health readings, when viewed from the side, while the rest of the screen remains visible.<\/p>\n Neither of these technologies is about to ship on a phone yet, but they give a clear idea of where smartphone displays are headed and what future Samsung phones might adopt.<\/p>\n![\"google](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/ "\\"google"){kind=icon}
