A blog post by Samsung created confusion about the S Pen’s status for the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra model. The company added that users could purchase a Bluetooth-enabled S Pen as a separate accessory. The company information on Samsung’s website shows different specifications from the content found in their recent blog post.
The Samsung websites feature only two S Pens for the Galaxy S25 Ultra including the basic S Pen and the S Pen Pro. The S Pen Pro implements Bluetooth technology to enable compatibility with Samsung’s other devices.
A Samsung representative verified that the S Pen Pro would work with the Galaxy S25 Ultra yet pairing attempts during a media briefing failed to establish a connection. A Samsung executive officially declared that the S Pen Pro specifically does not work with the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
The current situation raises numerous uncertainties about actual events. A decision by Samsung to sell a Bluetooth S Pen for the Galaxy S25 Ultra separately would create a confusing product strategy.
The high price of Galaxy S25 Ultra at $1,199 makes it questionable to require customers to buy the Bluetooth version as an additional expense. The standard S Pen may become obsolete if Samsung releases a separate Bluetooth-enabled S Pen.
So, what’s happening here? A sudden modification by Samsung likely resulted in unclear announcements about its products. The company might have accidentally included placeholder data which stated Bluetooth support for the standard S Pen of the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
The public will soon receive official confirmation from Samsung about whether the Galaxy S25 Ultra will use a different Bluetooth-enabled S Pen. We will update you about further information after an official statement becomes available.
