Summary

Samsung is gradually phasing out the S Pen stylus from its smartphones, as evidenced by the Galaxy Z Fold 7 dropping S Pen support to achieve a thinner design and the company ending sales of the stylus for compatible foldables. The S Pen, once a hallmark feature of the Galaxy Note and Galaxy S Ultra lines, appears to be on its way out as Samsung prioritizes design slimness over stylus functionality.
