According to a new report, Samsung may not be making major changes to its 2025 foldables after all, but it's still too early to tell.

Gimme S pen integration and drop the price a bit, Samsung, I'm interested in upgrading from the Note 20 Ultra, but at what you're asking, I'll just buy spare parts and fix up my current phone.

The fold5 can use an S pen unless I'm an idiot.

It can, so can the 6, but there's no housing for it in the body of the phone like on the Note and some of the Galaxy line.

Ah, I gave up wanting them to change course on that when it was clear that they never wanted to do it again for some insane reason. Note20 was probably the last.

They do have cases that will hold them, but the cases apparently suck.

That case issue is what actually finally turned me off of buying one. I was on the checkout screen on the Samsung website, saw they offered a case that would hold the S Pen that they wanted $40 for. So many of the reviews were for 1 star noting it quickly broke in the same place. So there's a rather serious design flaw in that case.

I got an OEM replacement back panel and camera housing for the Note 20 Ultra for $17 with shipping.
