Samsung Confirms S Pen Support for Galaxy S26 Ultra: Evidence from CAD Render Leaked by Tipster

The upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra from Samsung is anticipated to retain the integrated S Pen, a feature that has become synonymous with the flagship series. Despite ongoing speculation that this accessory might be omitted, recent leaks, including a partial CAD render shared by the well-known tipster Ice Universe (now known as PhoneArt), confirm its continued presence. This decision is likely to affect the device’s internal layout, as maintaining the S Pen has implications for the overall design and space available for hardware components.

Consumer Concerns Over Battery Capacity and Charging Speed

Samsung is expected to maintain a 5, 000mAh battery in the Galaxy S26 Ultra, a capacity that has been consistent over the past few generations. While some consumers may find this disappointing given the advancements in battery technology among competitors, the silver lining is that the charging capability will see an improvement. The maximum charging wattage is set to increase from 45W to an impressive 60W, which promises faster recharge times for users.

Revisiting Bluetooth Functionality and User Feedback

However, a critical point of contention among users is whether Samsung will reinstate features such as Bluetooth connectivity for the S Pen. In the previous model, the S25 Ultra, the stylus lost its Bluetooth functionality, which allowed for features like remote photography. This has not gone unnoticed; a petition advocating for the return of these functionalities garnered over 9, 000 signatures, indicating a strong desire from the user community to see these features restored in the upcoming model.

As anticipation builds for the release of the Galaxy S26 Ultra, consumers are eager to see whether Samsung will listen to the feedback regarding the S Pen’s features. With advancements in technology, the expectation for improvements in both battery performance and user functionality continues to rise. The upcoming months are crucial as Samsung prepares to unveil its flagship, and stakeholders will closely monitor how the company responds to user insights and competitive pressures.
