Galaxy S26 Ultra will change how you put the S Pen in its slot
Key Points:
- The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will differ from its predecessor, the S25 Ultra, by requiring the S Pen to be inserted in only one correct orientation, with the button facing upward.
- Previous Galaxy S Ultra models allowed the S Pen to be inserted either way without issues, but the S26 Ultra's design necessitates matching the stylus's curved end with the phone's curvature.
- Content creator Sahil Karoul, who obtained a retail unit of the Galaxy S26 Ultra early, demonstrated that inserting the S Pen with the button facing downward causes it to protrude from the device.
- This design change marks a shift in Samsung's approach to the S Pen integration in its flagship Ultra series.
