Petition to reintroduce Bluetooth S pen in S26U

DJuice — Wed, 29 Jan 2025 14:21:18 GMT

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here is a petition that was started a few days ago for Samsung to reintroduce the Bluetooth S pen for S26 ultra, and it's hit 1000 signatures. Impressive.

Here is the link- https://chng.it/mvNyXwPC99

I cancelled my S25 ultra order once it was confirmed that the S pen won't have Bluetooth functionality. I will carry on with my s24 for now. I did purchase the s25 though as a gift for mom.

Well be interesting to see if it has an impact or the s pen disappears completely on the s26

It wouldn't work. There is no Bluetooth functionality designed for s25U

It was known before you pre ordered that the Bluetooth feature had been removed if you had taken notice of, plenty posts on social media warning that was the case. Change.org is the petition website if anyone wants to know.

Think there are more important issues to highlight, companies like Samsung will make decisions as they see fit. I get that some folk are disappointed but Samsung do not think it is one of the biggest priorities for customers generally.

People were daft enough to buy additional S Pen from Amazon only to find out it won't work. 😂😂

I have the s24 ultra, hardly use the s pen. The z fold would be better for it

@Slothtamerv2 Whilst initial reports suggested this turns it it was incorrect, apparently there was an error in the Samsung Blog post. https://www.androidauthority.com/s25-ultra-s-pen-3520494/

Samsung listen to all feedback in regards to their hardware and software, so I'm sure they've heard the reaction to the current sPen concerns from some owners.

Time will tell if reintroduce this Bluetooth functionality.

Please bring it back @Samsung !!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏

That feature was something that no phone ever had. I'm currently using s23ultra and the bluetooth on s-pen is pretty much needed

No thanks I prefer magsafe which is not compatible with the Bluetooth pen.

I bought the first color phone Samsung true eye back then where Samsung is thrash compared to Nokia. SINCE theb always Samsung flip phone. USED note3 till now S24U. I use the bluetooth function a lot in capturing photos and editing and presentation. Without that function I ll switch to Iphone next year. I always wanna try out I Iphone as the phone has nicer design. Samsung now unlike previously has no more heart capturing innovative features. So without the S pen bluetooth which I use much there is no point buying it. I already bought a macbook which is incompatible with my S24U to try out that Apple.

So pls Samsung pls just ditch the S pen bluetooth for S26U and yes to Apple Iphone. Samsung you ll lose not just a long time (20plus years) user but also both my 2 sons and wife because I made decision in buying phone for whole family I pay for everything. So 4 less Galaxy and 4 more Iphone next year. Not a big deal huh Samsung, so Why Apple is not dying anytime soon and manage to punch you in the face? Why increasing teenager is choosing Iphone? Why Samsung falling down?

I personally use the spen as camera shutter a lot and that's the main reason why I keep buying the ultra series. And I came from Note series back then . Reason why i got the note instead of "normal phones" was because of the Spen . Was because i could use it as a camera remote shutter. It's very handy when you take group pictures .

When you guys keep saying "majority people not using it " it shouldn't be an excuse for samsung to remove those features. Just like "majority not using AUX " . They removed it . "Majority dont use SD card " . They removed it . Oh" majority have a charger " so they don't ship with a charger nowadys. "Majority not using 8k video too. " are they gonna remove it in few years down the line?

Just come on samsung stop with those non sense "people not using it" and remove such good features .
