I'm a zFold5 user, and the slim S Pen is really cool. I love that I never have to charge it due to its copper coil technology. Super neat stuff going on.
However, the technology is way too good at finding my S Pen. When using other drawing devices in the past, I would lift my pen and use my fingers to pan. However, with how Samsung prioritizes S Pen input over finger input, this means I have to lift the pen much farther than what is natural or set it down, etc, as if the spen is in range it nullifies any finger input.
What would be a really sweet setting to have is setting the maximum pen distance you can have before it stops tracing the cursor. For example, a small value would entail being millimeters away from the screen, while having a high value would be closer to what we have now.

I'm not sure if Samsung's technology can even measure distance, but it would be a really useful feature if so.

Thanks

YES! this would also be very helpful with palm rejection when using Samsung Notes app on a Galaxy S Ultra series

I didn't realize the ultra series has the same "problem," it'd be super helpful for palm rejection for surešŸ™
