Samsung may completely remove the S-Pen technology, which it has been offering integrated in the Galaxy S Ultra series for a long time, in the future. The company is considering removing the S-Pen slot from the phone in order to increase battery capacity in flagship models. However, it is said that the decision is not yet completely clear.
Samsung may officially remove the S-Pen technology
Since the end of the Galaxy Note series in 2022, the S-Pen has continued to be offered in the Galaxy S Ultra models. However, recent developments show that this tradition may end. It was stated that the S-Pen will continue to be included in the Galaxy S26 Ultra model. The change is expected to be implemented with the Galaxy S27 Ultra model.

Samsung management is also considering positioning the S-Pen outside the device. If this scenario happens, alternative solutions such as magnetically attaching the pen to the side of the device may come to the fore. However, we can say that it is doubtful how practical this design will be in daily use. It remains unclear how suitable this approach applied to tablets will be for phones with limited space.
The future of the S-Pen on smartphones is being questioned in terms of both space and cost. The pen technology, which has found a wider use in tablets, has started to fall into the background in terms of production and design preferences on the phone side.
The possibility that Samsung will completely separate this accessory from the device in the coming years indicates that one of the characteristic features of the Ultra series has come to an end.
