Samsung reshapes S Pen to feel natural with the Galaxy S26 Ultra

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will ship with a reshaped S Pen that will feel natural. The company’s next Ultra flagship will have more rounded corners than the S25 Ultra, and the top shape of its stylus will adopt this design.

Tipster Phoneart has just leaked a CAD view of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra S Pen. It shows the top edge of the S Pen, which is no longer flat; rather, it has become rounded on one side. The change is to match the rounded corners of the device.

Simply put, the S Pen’s top edge has a design that blends with the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s body. The phone’s corners have become more rounded, and Samsung couldn’t have retained the same stylus design as previous models.

It’s a notable design change that was necessary to be made. The S Pen will not feel out of its place on the device frame. It will rest inside the body while retaining the smoother finish on the smartphone for a natural feel.

Well, the latest leak has given us our first look at the S Pen of the upcoming device. It’s a welcome change to keep the seamless design on the flagship. Hopefully, there will be no issues pulling out and inserting the stylus.

Samsung dropped Bluetooth features from the S Pen of the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Early leaks suggested the Galaxy S26 Ultra will also lack a Bluetooth-powered S Pen. It’s a move to drop the S Pen from its smartphone line eventually.

The Korean tech giant is expected to launch the new flagships early next year. The lineup will include three models: Pro, Edge, and Ultra. The Galaxy S26 Ultra will introduce significant upgrades to its display and charging capabilities.
