Samsung is the king of smartphone stylus – not just one of the most models supporting one, but S Pen is integrated into its galaxies. And it’s nowhere better than Galaxy’s ultra flagships. It is because the Galaxy S22 Ultra was a spiritual successor of the last Galaxy Note, essentially merging Note and S Ultra lineups together.
But Samsung laid Bluetooth and Giroscope Ka Removed from S 25 Ultra – it was added in 2018 – indicating that the S pen could come out.
Citing its own survey, Samsung says only 1% of Galaxy owners use those features of S Pen. It’s a bad argument for some reason. First, there are many people of 1% of all S Pen users – hundreds of thousands. Second, S Pen was the ultimate remote shutter for your Galaxy Phone (Samsung wants you to use your Galaxy Clock for that). Third, Samsung did not add anything to compensate for the lack of Bluetooth.
Side of Bluetooth, S Pen is still a competent style. It still has a 4096 level pressure sensitivity and still opens the world of productivity over your phone.
But the S Pan dipping, unfortunately, is almost universally a sign of completely removing it with phones. We hope we are wrong about this, but it is never a good sign when the features are removed.
And it can happen early next year. We can see the S Pen-low Galaxy S26 Ultra. Samsung can use a large battery or internal component Optim ptimization as arguments for this.
On the other hand, Samsung can work on a new single S pen that will work with more phones – this opens the possibility of fancy new cases with S Pen Holsters for more phones, leading to improved profitability. It is a winning strategy, even if we will be salty about Bluetooth-enabled S Pen Holdouts.
