I believe it was gathered data from device usage. Not a survey.

Signature removed by popular demand.

I just got mine...thinking of returning it. I'm mind blown by how cheap and plasticy the stylus feels and it functions poorly as well. The functions (like the stylus in general) aren't always used, but really nice to have for when you do. 

 

I use it to edit photos (accuracy), take notes (shopping lists, when on a phone call, for work, etc), tripod camera shutter, etc. 

Making the stylus of cheap plastic and removing the features make it feel like a kids toy...and while android is WAY better than iOS and the s25 ultra can do more than a iPhone 16 pro max (had this phone too), at least Apple is ADDING to the phones features (camera button, action button, etc.) instead of taking them away. 🤷

What was this good for anyway? Does it consume less battery? It was such a stupid decision. The fact that 1% used Bluetooth was decided by 120 kg office boring and stubborn people. Man, the S pen is a useless zero without Bluetooth that takes up space in the phone. What can be edited with it, don't you think that I will edit pictures with it on the go? I would rather do that on a laptop with Photoshop comfortably and more accurately. How could such a troll decision be made? To take such a useful function home like this? I am writing about the iPhone design, exterior here about the new S buds pro, software imitation, S 25 new square thick iPhone imitation, etc. Do I have to continue this stupid path, I beg you? Why do I have to buy usable Samsung things that are 2-3 years older in everything? Couldn't we continue what has proven itself, is useful and good? Because I will never buy a Samsung ring if that's the goal. I hope there will be a solution, update the S pen to Bluetooth, you tards.

The only reason I convinced my friend to buy a Samsung it was for the S Pen features now they are gone! Bring back the Bluetooth S Pen

The only thing I used the pen for on my 23 ultra was to take group pictures from a tripod, now I can't even do that easily on the 25 ultra.

The S25 (non-BT) S-pen still needs a battery to operate the remaining button functionality on that S-Pen (note erase, etc.)  So having a charging coil is still necessary.  So presence of a charging coil is not proof that the S25U will be BT S-pen compatible.

Used my AI feature for your reply:

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra's S Pen does not have a battery. It's a passive stylus, meaning it doesn't need to be charged. This is a change from previous S Pen models that had Bluetooth capabilities and therefore required a battery.
Samsung removed the Bluetooth features from the S25 Ultra's S Pen, so it no longer needs a battery. This means it's lighter and you don't have to worry about charging it. However, it also means you lose features like Air Actions and remote camera control.

The point the video makes, is the conductor is identical to th over the S Pen housing on S25 as S24, so possible they could release a S pen with a battery which fully fit S25 Ultra, and regains the BT feature, if they wanted to. But like I said I pretty happy either way.😊
