    Had folding phones had a good stylus support, they would have been an absolutely amazing piece of tech. I remember only 2 Samsung phones had it, and then it got discontinued. What a bummer.

        The latest fold doesn’t. I double checked it, fold is now too thin to have S pen inside the body. And it likely isn’t going to be supported in future generations either.

          They’ve never integrated the pen with the body afaik, wife and I had the 2/3/4/5,generally we just got a case with the Spen holder.

          Still though they function on the inner screen is my point, it is supported functionally.

          The outer screen tho doesn’t work with the pen.

          Personally I went to a Pixel when I started having hinge issues on my 4, have become increasingly anti-Google so got graphene and homelabbed up.

                I had three stylus phones over 6 years. Never used the stylus once. Ever. Samsung got user data back and ditched it.

                  I mean I didn’t use it most of the time either, but it was extremely handy having it when I wanted to use it specifically.

                  My wife uses hers a good bit playing games and such too 🤷
