"S Pen Compatible" Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 Additional Renderings Leaked
[Asia Economy Reporter Eunmo Koo] Samsung Electronics' next-generation foldable smartphone, the 'Galaxy Z Fold3,' which is set to be released soon, is expected to be the first foldable phone equipped with a stylus pen (S Pen). Meanwhile, the S Pen provided with the Galaxy Z Fold3 is also expected to be usable with the 'Galaxy Z Flip3.'
On the 24th (local time), IT specialized media SamMobile and PhoneArena reported, citing the certification results from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), that the Galaxy Z Fold3 will include an S Pen.
This is the first time Samsung Electronics supports the S Pen on a foldable phone. However, there will be no silo to store the S Pen inside the foldable phone, and the S Pen will be provided separately. According to industry sources, Samsung considered integrating the S Pen but decided to simply support it due to internal space constraints and other issues. Samsung is expected to sell a separate case that can store the S Pen, similar to the Galaxy S21 Ultra.
Meanwhile, rumors suggest that the S Pen provided with the Galaxy Z Fold3 will also be compatible with the Galaxy Z Flip3. According to images released by famous IT tipster Evan Blass, the S Pen is labeled 'Fold Edition,' increasing the likelihood of compatibility.
According to the FCC certification documents, the Galaxy Z Fold3 supports the S Pen as well as ▲5G (mmWave and sub-6GHz) ▲Ultra-Wideband (UWB) network ▲9W wireless charging ▲reverse wireless charging ▲Wi-Fi 6. In particular, PhoneArena evaluated that “since UWB is included in the iPhone 12 and Galaxy S21 series, continuing this trend in foldable phones seems reasonable.” UWB is a technology used in location-finding gadgets such as Apple’s ‘AirTag’ and Samsung’s ‘SmartTag+.’
