I tried Xiaomi's new Samsung-rivalling phone with Privacy Display, but is it actually better than the Galaxy S26 Ultra's attempt?

The Xiaomi 18 Pro, featuring a Privacy Display, is set for an international launch this year to compete with the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy S26 FE has been reviewed as a false economy. Although there are few functional flaws with the device, its increased cost relative to its predecessor makes it more difficult to recommend when compared to other available S26 models within the current Samsung smartphone lineup for consumers.
