Samsung pay MST

Did Samsung get rid of MST magnetic strip technology for Samsung Pay on the folds? I know they got rid of it on the s twenty one ultra, but did they ever bring it back?

No. I believe they got rid of it when. The S21 series came out, no new release have included MST since then.

Magnetic stripe technology is being phased out altogether. For example, by 2029 no new Mastercard debit/credit card will have a magnetic stripe attached.
