Samsung Electronics announced on Friday that three of its products have been selected for TIME magazine's 2026 list of The Best Inventions. The magazine released its annual list on Thursday. The Galaxy S26 Ultra smartphone was chosen in the Consumer Electronics category, the Bespoke AI Family Hub refrigerator was selected in the Household category, and the Odyssey G8 gaming monitor was named in the Entertainment & Gaming category.
TIME compiles the list each year by compiling nominations from its editors and correspondents worldwide. They evaluate new products and ideas based on originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact. The Galaxy S26 Ultra was described as a "privacy-focused smartphone" by TIME, highlighting its Privacy Display feature. This feature blocks people from viewing the screen from the side and can be turned on or applied to specific content, such as notifications, providing greater flexibility than traditional privacy screen protectors.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra is the top model in Samsung's Galaxy S26 series, which was released in March and features a 200-megapixel wide-angle camera and artificial intelligence capabilities.
