Samsung this was definitely a deal breaker for me as I use Air Actions every day I was going to upgrade but I'm now sticking with my S24 Ultra I mean seriously Air Actions was the main selling point of the S-Pen

I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THE BLUETOOTH FEATURE THAT SAMSUNG REMOVE FROM THE S PEN WITH THE S25ULTRA , IT WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE FEATURE I USE IT A LOT WITH MY S24ULTRA, IT'S THE ONE REASON THAT I STICK WITH THE 24ULTRA .

Don't fret just yet. It seems as though they *might* be releasing a Bluetooth s pen separately and looks to cost $50.

I never used the gestures but I use my s pen every day. Hopefully you'll get your Bluetooth one after all! 🙂

Thats cool and all, but they removed the charging feature for the Spen in the phone, which means you would have to charge externally. The spen that comes with it does not have the capacitor for its "battery" and no features. Unless samsung decides to still install the wireless charger and controller inside the phone which would be crazy, just keep the Bluetooth pen at that point

@JrockCPhT "It seems as though they *might* be releasing a Bluetooth s pen separately and looks to cost $50."

That isn't going to happen. Samsung corrected the article that everyone has been referencing and removed the incorrect information about a bluetooth pen being available later.

As of my searching last night, it was still a possibility. I now see the article from Tech Radar posted 3 hours ago where Samsung confirmed to them that the Bluetooth will be a no-go.

Today I have just cancelled my s25 ultra pre order from Samsung I am not falling for it I think as per Samsung I was in that 1% of people who use Spen air actions even though if no one was using it that it's good to have it in the flagship category phone. Why pay more money just to have it. Not this time SAMSUNG

STOP taking away features. You are removing the Bluetooth functionality of the S Pen which is absurd.  You have shut down RCS in Samsung messages and over the years you have removed many other features that make your phones unique. You want to win customers back…make your phones unique again, otherwise you are no better than Apple  

By taking away the Bluetooth feature of the S Pen, you have guaranteed I will NOT be your customer anymore.

I have an S24 ultra and upgraded to the S25 Ultrea.  I wonder if I will get dinged if I keep the Bluetooth S pen that came with my S24 and return the non Bluetooth s25U's pen with my S24 trade in.  Samsung should establish a policy that allows us to do that.  Thoughts?

There is no reason to do that. The bluetooth features (air actions) will not work with a S25 Ultra.
