Bad news for S Pen fans: The Galaxy Z Fold 8 series doesn’t support Samsung’s stylus

v=RGTGAkNOjCU TL;DR The Galaxy Z Fold 8 series is official, and the phones come with impressive specs. However, neither the Z Fold 8 Ultra nor the Z Fold 8 supports Samsung’s S Pen. The company originally removed S Pen support with last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7.

Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra , Z Fold 8 , and Z Flip 8 at its Galaxy Unpacked event in London today . While the phones come packed with powerful specs and useful features, there’s one thing that’s missing yet again — the S Pen. Neither the Galaxy Z Fold 8 nor the Z Fold 8 Ultra comes with S Pen support.

That’s not entirely surprising, since Samsung removed support for its stylus back with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 . However, if you were hoping the wider Z Fold 8 would bring back S Pen support, you’re unfortunately out of luck.
