S26 Ultra S Pen Calibration is offset

Alienguru1 — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 20:37:31 GMT

I am dealing with an ongoing issue with my S Pen being offset to the right when I hold it in my right hand in a hand writing position. It is consistently 1-1.5mm offset to the right. If I use my left hand it lines up perfectly. If I hold it vertically, it is offset to the right 0.5mm.

I have tried everything:

Removing MagSafe case

Restarting

Entering Safe Mode

Reseating S Pen

Samsung Member's Diagnostic

Touch Sensitivity is enabled

Phone codes like *#2663# are disabled

Nothing has resolved it. There is no sort of "Calibrate S Pen" function in the settings, which is ridiculous.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

My S23 Ultra did not have this issue at all. I feel like it started after a recent big OS update yesterday.

I have owned all ultra phones before the S26 ultra (except the 25) and none of them had this issue.

I also feel that the S pen feels cheaper now..

Samsung should add the calibration setting to be able to properly solve the issue.

Having this issue as well after the OS update. It makes note taking exceedingly difficult.

Try entering *#0*# in your dialer. Navigate to s-pen, SPEN DRAW, and draw the boxes. This helped a little.

That code does not work for me. It says connection problem or invalid MMI code. I think its disabled on certain carriers.

Exact same issue with S26U. Should definitely have a calibrate cursor setting, would not be hard to implement. If you calibrated it for your right hand, left hand and vertical alignment would probably be off, but that wouldn't really matter.

Yeah....none of my previous ultras had this problem. The spen on this sucks....and it's the only reason I get the ultra. Put a calibration setting in please....note taking sucks with this thing.

Experiencing the exactly same issue with my s26 ultra, also tried to remove all accessories. Still draws off to the right.
