Should Samsung bring back S Pen Bluetooth connection 🤔

1Being a solid Samsung user i would be very interested to see how other phones compare. I have been tempted by other brands but also stuck with Samsung. Currently use S25u before that was S23u, S21, note10. Was very disappointed that Samsung removed the Bluetooth connection from the S pen for the S25u yet kept 100x zoom, I’m sure people only use 100x zoom to take pictures of the moon, far more people used the S pen on a regular bases but they still dropped it.

rogersdave77 Yes, because the S Pen had many functionalities, whether it be controlling multimedia content, transferring images between phones and tablets, and even taking a selfie remotely,Why did Samsung remove this? Apparently less than 1% of users took advantage of these features, but a minority function should not be an excuse for it to be removed. Let’s hope that Samsung thinks this over, because there are people who did enjoy the functions of the S Pen, and knew how to use them. The Bluetooth in the S Pen should not be forgotten. I hope it comes back for the S26 Ultra.

rogersdave77 Before I moved into the iPhone and the Apple ecosystem, I was a big Samsung user, my favourite was actually the Galaxy Note 8. Ever since Samsung retired the Note series and shifted everything into the S line, I’ve followed along with the S21, S23 Ultra, and now the S25 Ultra.

What confuses me is Samsung’s decision to remove Bluetooth functionality from the S Pen on the S25 Ultra. They kept features like 100x zoom, which most people honestly only use for the occasional moon photo, but removed something a lot more practical. The S Pen was something people actually used regularly, and the Bluetooth shortcuts and gestures were genuinely useful.

As someone who’s stuck with Samsung for years but is also curious about other brands, I’d really like to hear what others think. Should Samsung bring back Bluetooth support for the S Pen in the future?

Time will tell.

I feel like it’s the prototype for the s26 they’ll probably bring it back next year with Ai even more well integrated into it

It’s true most users almost take advantage of the true workings of cell phones and their functions, and because of that, they eliminate them when it’s necessary.
