Does the Samsung Galaxy tab S6 lite S pen has a battery? If so will it ever run out and how to charge it?

if it doesn't have a battery how does it work?

the pens run on the light current being generated by your screen normally OR charged via the port it's attached to.

I'm waiting to see how the Pro S pen for my S21U is going to work, I assume like your tablet, we only get the version that runs on the energy creat and holds a short charge based on usage?

I could be completely wrong but thats the understanding I got from a minor bit of research.

with all the reverse wireless charging we have now, chances are the new S pens are going that way too

Thank you for the answer

you are most welcome, and again anytime you need it:)

I had a good search around and it looks like yours is a standard version Pen, no battery and no Bluetooth.

basically it's just powered by the electricity around your device screen , that being said, that was how the first pens worked too and they are almost as good as the newest ones even today, I use a gen 2 similar to your one with my S21U.

hope you enjoy them both and remember the sides and apparently back too on your tablet has magnets that will hold your pen. no slot sadly.

Good luck with it:)


if this solved your question I'd appreciate If you mark it solved by post have a great day or night wherever you may be

edit for spelling mistakes, fat fingers !
