- Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Fold 7 has a significantly thinner and more ergonomic design.
- To achieve this slim profile, Samsung has removed the digitizer layer from the inner display, consequently dropping S Pen support.
Samsung has just launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which finally features a noticeably thinner design that is easier to hold. While everyone gushes over how good it feels in the hand, this thinner design comes at a cost: the Fold 7 no longer supports the S Pen.
Samsung hasn’t mentioned S Pen support as part of the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s launch. We asked Samsung about S Pen support on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, and the company confirmed to us that the new flagship does not support the S Pen. Samsung had to get rid of the digitizer layer within the display assembly in its quest for a thinner foldable.
