Galaxy S26 Ultra’s redesigned S Pen may look like this

Everything that has been rumored so far about the Galaxy S26 Ultra seems to suggest that Samsung is preparing significant changes for its upcoming flagship smartphone.

Reports have also pointed to major designs changes for the device. It’s likely to have a more curved design that’s inline with the general aesthetic of the Galaxy S series. A new leak hints at a redesigned S Pen which will complement the updated design.

The Galaxy S Ultra phones have generally had a more sharp and boxy silhouette that’s reminiscent of the Galaxy Note phones. Samsung is expected to move away from that with the Galaxy S26 Ultra, preferring a flowy curved design language that has long been associated with this series.

There has been some speculation about the S Pen’s future on Samsung’s phones after the company removed the Bluetooth features this year. It also removed S Pen support from the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Some rumors had claimed that the S Pen may be sacrificed on future Ultra models for the sake of a thinner profile.

While that could happen in the future, all signs point to the S Pen surviving next year and being included on the Galaxy S25 Ultra. A leaked image shared on X shows off a redesigned S Pen, albeit barely, which suggests that a redesign may be on the cards for the stylus.

It’s unlikely we’ll see a return of the Bluetooth features, though, so S Pen fans really should keep their fingers crossed for that.
