So, the other day I bought a renewed galaxy watch 7 and I have a galaxy s23 ultra device and I just thought about something; texting on the watch is easy but I have small hands even for a man and I just thought about those with bigger hands and I realized, why isn't it a feature that if you connect a watch to any of the galaxy ultra phones that have an S pen you will also be able to use the S pen on the watch making it far easier to use and feel more fancy and premium. 
It would be nice if it was a feature for all watches that might be able to support it but, I am not a tech geek so I dont know if it would be possible as an update but, its okay if it isn't I just wanted to share the idea that I had for the galaxy watches in the future. 

Like I imagine that if someone is sent a message they could just push on the S pen while their newest ultra phone is in their pocket push and bring out the pen and type on the watch, and then, put the S pen back into the phone, its unecessary yes, but, itd make the whole Samsung ecosystem feel even more premium and more fancy. Another thing i thought of is just a small tiny pen built into the watch but that might be a problem since im sure itd probably be around 3-4 inches small so itd be tiny.
Anyways just a thought bubble ive thought about.

@Overhaul_1531 S Pen requires a digitize layer in the device. A simple software update couldn't add S Pen functionality to a device.

Is that so? Awe man well it would still be cool for future watches to have that, actually heck it could even be a feature on all ultra watches in the feature too.

Never going to happen. Watches rely heavily in many ways on magnets as well as have many in them and straps. Magnet anything are the most anti spen objects in tech.
That's the reason the S26U STILL doesn't have a magsafe equivalent built-in. It completely renders the aforementioned digitizer layer in the OLED useless since that tech actually operates on micro magnetic fields itself. That's why any magnet especially strong rare earth ones, are heavily recommended against when an Spen is involved.
Watches work fine for us bigger handed folks anyway I have very large hands and don't have any real issues with touching the target on my watch. They make the "touch zone" bigger for watches.

I'd much rather them reintroduce bt back to the Spen!

Huh is that so, well its Samsung I'm sure they could work ot out ngl maybe even they could im thinking add like you said bluetooth to the S pen back and through your phone make command it to stand on pairing mode and then connect to the watch through blue tooth and any time you unhook the S pen it can booth connect to the watch like earbuds connect automatically to your phone while also keeping the normal way they stay connected to the phone itself? And then I think that could work wouldn't it? Im not a tech enthusiast so I genuinely dont really know that much on how these devices work but I imagine it could be possible?

No we have explained why it wouldn't work twice and you continue to respond with "well I'm sure they can figure it out" we are saying that no, they can't and wont do that specific thing. I've never even heard a single person until now say a word about wanting to use an Spen on such a tiny display that's counterproductive.

Sorry not trying to be rude but it seems like you were not reading nor comprehending the answers that you didn't want to hear.
