Samsung Display has a helpful visual on its MWC booth showing how the Flex Magic Pixel technology in the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s Privacy Display works. The technology itself isn’t new — it debuted at MWC 2024 — but its application in a real, shipping product is.
Front and center at Samsung Display’s booth, the demo shows how the OLED structure limits light emitted to the sides of subpixels when privacy mode is engaged. Kinda cool.
The X105 5G modem-RF is the X85’s successor, which is 20 more X by my count. The modem comes with a familiar emphasis on enabling AI applications; it also “predicts RF conditions” with the help of sensing software to try and maintain a stronger connection.
It’s 15 percent smaller and 30 percent more power efficient compared to the last one. Shrinkflation strikes again, but in a good way, maybe?
The phone-away-from-phone that Clicks announced at CES will come in a handful of different keyboard layouts, the company says. In addition to the QWERTY version, it’ll be offered in AZERTY (French), QWERTZ (German), Korean, and Arabic.
Clicks has also extended the window for early reservations until March 15th, which brings the price down to $399 if you’re willing to put down some (or all) of that cost now. But as for a firm launch date this year? We’re still waiting on that.

Samsung is teasing “a new Galaxy camera experience” coming next week, saying that “the latest Galaxy AI experiences will bring advanced creative tools to one place.” A handful of teaser videos — along with those AI-generated ads — give me the impression that we’re going to see more AI tools crammed into the camera system. But maybe calling it “the brightest Galaxy camera system to date” confirms the rumors of brighter apertures, which could do a lot more for image quality than some AI editing tools.
