The fold series still supports stylus
The latest fold doesn't. I double checked it, fold is now too thin to have S pen inside the body. And it likely isn't going to be supported in future generations either.
They've never integrated the pen with the body afaik, wife and I had the 2/3/4/5,generally we just got a case with the Spen holder.
Still though they function on the inner screen is my point, it is supported functionally.
The outer screen tho doesn't work with the pen.
Personally I went to a Pixel when I started having hinge issues on my 4, have become increasingly anti-Google so got graphene and homelabbed up.
Not on fold 7 & 8. The stylus doesn’t work on either display.
Damn no shit, what a weird step back for no reason.
I had three stylus phones over 6 years. Never used the stylus once. Ever. Samsung got user data back and ditched it.
I mean I didn't use it most of the time either, but it was extremely handy having it when I wanted to use it specifically.
My wife uses hers a good bit playing games and such too 🤷
