Samsung is expected to announce the Galaxy S21 series in January 2021. The Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G will be the most powerful phone in the series, which also includes the Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S21 Plus phones. It was revealed by a South Korean publication in August that the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G will come with support for the S Pen stylus. Today, reliable tipster Ice Universe took to Twitter to reveal he is 100 precent sure that the S21 Ultra supports S Pen.

The Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G CAD renders that appeared in October gave a good look at its design. The renders did not show the presence of a dedicated compartment in the device for housing the S Pen. According to tipster Max J, the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G only supports the stylus but does not have a separate shaft for it.

There are chances that Samsung will sell the S Pen as an optional accessory for the buyers of S21 Ultra 5G. It remains to be seen whether the South Korean company announces specially designed cases that can hold the S Pen. There are speculations that bringing support for S Pen could be Samsung’s strategy to discontinue the Galaxy Note lineup.

Rumors have it that Samsung may not launch the Galaxy Note phablets next year. Probably, the Galaxy Z Fold series foldable phones arriving in the coming years could feature a dedicated slot for the stylus.

Coming back to the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, it is expected to arrive with specs like a 6.81-inch AMOLED display with Quad HD+ resolution and 120Hz refresh rate support, Snapdragon 875 / Exynos 2100 chipset, a 108-megapixel Samsung HM3 quad rear cameras with laser autofocus support, and a 5,000mAh battery with 60W fast charging support.
