Received my S25 Ultra at the weekend. All well except that the SPEN doesn't control the camera. As it did on the S24 Ultra I had and does on my Tab S10 Ultra. 

Anyone else come across this?

The sPen for the Samsung Galaxy s²⁵ Ultra no longer has Bluetooth capabilities @Alfsdad 

There are other ways to control the camera however in Settings. 

If i can be of any further help please don't hesitate to ask  😎

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

Hey there

As @BandOfBrothers has already advised, the S25 Ultra SPen is not Bluetooth enabled as very few users used the functionality on previous series devices.

Sadly the Bluetooth functionality of the SPen has been removed on the S25U. I am from the minority who has been using it and I hope it comes back. The S25U is a brilliant phone otherwise.

It's more likely that s26u will either loose the spen or be same as with the s25u. I cant see any reason they would add it back. We se the beginning of the end of the spen built in. So going forward we might see a solution like with the fold, a cover with the spen.

Me too. I have the Tab s10 Ultra and can still use it there. I am disappointed with the spen functionality on the s25U . Let's hope it returns.
