The Galaxy S26 Ultra has been around for several months, and now that the hype has simmered down and the hot takes have cooled, it’s also perhaps the perfect time to gauge genuine sentiment.
For the most part, the Galaxy S26 Ultra seems to be a popular release. There are plenty of things to love about the phone, from its ever-reliable camera setup to its far lighter build and the usual Samsung One UI software goodness. But the headlining feature is undoubtedly that new Privacy Display.
Physically obfuscating important information on the screen seems to be the new big thing, given that Samsung put all its marketing eggs in this particular basket. But is it really worth it? Well, judging by my colleague Zac Kew-Denniss’ recent opinion piece on the phone, it certainly isn’t, and I agree. But we also wanted to know where our readers stand. We asked in a poll if you’re satisfied with the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s display. Over 7,000 votes later, the results are in.

It’s official: Samsung played a blinder, even if the screen is too dim or headache-inducing for some users.
Over 44% of respondents in this poll confirm they’re satisfied with the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s screen, far outpacing the other two options.
It’s worth noting that 35% of the vote came from those who haven’t used the phone, but if we narrow the results to yays and nays alone, more than a third (68%) of these readers are happy with the phone’s screen.
