Samsung just wrapped up its 2020 launches with the release of the Note series as well as the new Galaxy Z Fold 2. We're still a few months away from the next big flagship from Samsung, but the rumour mill has already started churning out interesting pieces of info.

According to a few reports on the internet, it looks like the Galaxy S21 Ultra will support S Pen inputs. That being said, it looks like the phone won't ship with an S Pen because the Galaxy Note 21 or whatever they decide to call it, will still be coming out.

The Galaxy Note 22 or the next Galaxy Note flagship may not see the light of day because Samsung will have merged the two series by then. So think of the Galaxy S21 Ultra as a testing ground for Samsung before the big move.

This makes a lot of sense because currently there's not much of a difference between the Galaxy S20 Ultra and the Note 20 Ultra except the fact that it has S Pen support. Technically you could be either one of them and be absolutely happy with your purchase because they both are equally good, with or without the S Pen support.

Samsung will most likely push the power users towards its Fold line up, which may get the S Pen support down the line once the foldables are more prominent in the market. It'll be interesting to see how this all works out, so let's keep an eye on all the updates for now.
