Samsung says you shouldn't write off the S Pen just yet
Mobile eXperience Fold 7 translated source Fold 7 was a major leap forward over the Thewas a major leap forward over the Galaxy Z Fold 6 . | Video credit — Samsung Also worth mentioning is the fact that, according to previous reports, Samsung is considering removing the S Pen from the Galaxy S26 Ultra as well. No pen on the S26 Ultra might turn off a sizable chunk of Samsung users from the company's Ultra lineup, but will provide more space for a bigger battery. Samsung is reportedly considering this very carefully, and is weighing the pros and cons of this I had to put in my two cents, I'd say it's either time to bring back the Note series of phones or start offering two versions of the Ultra each year. The latter might be a logistical nightmare for the company that also confuses the average consumer, however.

Samsung may bring back S Pen support in future Galaxy Z Fold models
A built-in S Pen might not be off the table for Samsung's future foldables after all. While the recently launched Galaxy Z Fold 7 skipped stylus support — just like the Galaxy Z Fold SE from China — it looks like the company is still working on ways to bring the S Pen back, possibly with a dedicated slot inside the phone. This would be a big move for Samsung's foldable strategy, especially after rumours in recent years suggested the brand was moving away from integrating the stylus in its Z Fold lineup. Now, if a new report is anything to go by, the S Pen story might not be over just to South Korean publication ETNews, Samsung is actively exploring how to integrate the S Pen more seamlessly in future Galaxy Z Fold models. This wouldn't just mean compatibility with the stylus — it could also mean a physical space inside the device to store it, just like in the Galaxy S Ultra phones. That could be a huge deal for users who use the S Pen for productivity and creative tasks, especially on a foldable screen that can double as a context, Samsung added S Pen support to the Galaxy Z Fold series back with the Fold 3. However, due to the fragile nature of foldable displays, the company kept the S Pen as a separate accessory, never offering a built-in slot. It worked, but it wasn't the most convenient solution. Things took a turn in 2024 when the Galaxy Z Fold SE launched without any S Pen support, and the same was the case with the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which came out just recently. While Samsung hasn't confirmed anything yet, the ETNews report suggests that improvements in display durability, digitiser tech, and compact battery design might finally allow Samsung to revisit the idea of a stylus slot in a foldable phone. Whether that ends up happening with the next Fold model or takes a bit longer, we'll have to wait and of the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Samsung unveiled the phone alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Flip 7 FE earlier this month. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 offers a massive 8-inch AMOLED internal display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 2600 nits peak brightness. The outer display is 6.5 inches and is also AMOLED. It runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and comes with up to 16GB RAM and 1TB storage. Camera-wise, you get a 200-megapixel main shooter, a 10-megapixel telephoto, and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide. There's a 10-megapixel selfie camera on the cover screen and another 10-megapixel one also IP48 rated, supports wireless charging, and packs a 4400mAh battery. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 starts at Rs 1,74,999 for the 12GB + 256GB variant, with higher-end models going up to Rs 2,16,999.- Ends

Leaked Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra render shows off bezels so thin, Samsung had to use a waterdrop notch
Zac Kew-Denniss / Android Authority TL;DR Leaked renders reveal the designs of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 FE and Tab S11 Ultra. According to the render, the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra has thin bezels, a waterdrop notch, dual rear cameras, and S Pen support. In the leaked render, the Galaxy S25 FE also features a thin bezel, a hole-punch display, and triple rear cameras. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 are the flavor of the month, but Samsung is already working towards the launch of its next lineup of phones and tablets. We expect the Galaxy S25 FE to launch soon, and the company even confirmed that the Galaxy Tab S11 series is coming soon. We've seen leaked renders of the Galaxy S25 FE, but now we have another round of them alongside leaked renders of the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra. Leaker Evan 'evleaks' Blass has shared renders of both of these devices: While the renders are low-resolution, there's still plenty to learn from them. For one, the Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra seems to have a waterdrop notch, unlike the wider notch we see on its predecessor, the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra. The bezels are thin on the Tab S11 Ultra, but they are thin on the S10 Ultra too, so it remains to be seen what Samsung's plan is for the Ultra tablet. On larger tablets, you do need some bezel space to hold the device comfortably. The render also shows two rear cameras and support for the S Pen. We know from a previous leak that the Galaxy Tab S11 series will include the Tab S11 and the Tab S11 Ultra, both coming in with the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 SoC. At this point, the Galaxy S25 FE looks like a typical Samsung phone. The only point of note is that the leaked renders show relatively thinner bezels on the front, corroborating some previous renders. Samsung is expected to launch these devices in late Q3 or early Q4 of this year. Based on their launch window, it's fair to expect them to come with One UI 8 based on Android 16 out of the box.
