"This goes double for the S26 Ultra, whose biggest upgrade - the Privacy Display - is something meant to stop other people from snooping at what you're doing. When it's on, you probably won't even be able to tell, which is kind of the point."
"The company is really only lagging behind Apple in two areas: hearing health and heart-rate tracking. Samsung currently offers the option to amplify voices on its earbuds, but it hasn't built a hearing test or the hearing protection tools Apple has. The biggest update on the AirPods Pro 3 was the addition of heart-rate tracking last year, which would be a great foundation for a fitness-focused version of the Galaxy Buds."
"If I were to judge the XPS 14 based purely on its specs and design alone, it would be my favorite Windows laptop available today."
Engadget's review roundup highlights new products from major tech manufacturers. Samsung's Galaxy S26 Ultra introduces a Privacy Display feature designed to prevent screen snooping, marking its most significant upgrade. The Galaxy Buds 4 and 4 Pro continue Apple-inspired design while improving sound quality, though Samsung lags in hearing health and heart-rate tracking capabilities. Dell's XPS 14 (2026) presents a paradox: excellent specifications and design undermined by fundamental functionality issues. The reviews indicate a competitive landscape where flagship devices offer incremental improvements and feature parity with competitors, though each product has distinct strengths and limitations.
