Although the Galaxy Note series came to an end in 2020, its most innovative feature – the S-Pen – has found a new home with the Samsung Galaxy S flagships. Not only is Samsung continuing that tradition with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, but the Ultra provides a feature that will enhance this classic technology.
The feature is the screen. Specifically, the move away from the curved screen of previous Ultra handsets towards a completely flat screen.
Details on the new display come from the latest leaked images of the Galaxy S24 Ultra. These show a variety of S24 Ultra highlights, including the absence of a separating electronic camera island for the 5 lenses, the always-useful volume and power buttons on the right-hand edge and, of course, the flat screen.
Sometimes, the smallest design changes can have the biggest impact.
With a flat screen, the S-Pen will happily attach to the edges, and the interface will be even more comfortable to use. No more will the stylus escape over the edge of the screen. If you want to select, highlight, or draw at the edges of the screen, the Ultra makes your smartphone world a little easier.
This is before you consider the new hardware that will be packed into 2024’s S-Pen – which has already cleared certification in a number of regions – and in the S24 Ultra’s digitizer that responds to stylus inputs.
Few other manufacturers offer the synergy between these two elements in their high-end handsets. It’s more obvious in the tablet area, but if you’re looking for a stylus to go with your flagship phone, it will be very difficult to look beyond Samsung’s latest offering.
The Galaxy S24 family, including the S24 Ultra and S-Pen, will launch in early 2024 at a “Galaxy Unpacked” event widely expected to take place on January 17th.
