The patent, highlighted by Studimo and reported by Android Central, showcases intriguing concepts for housing the S Pen within the foldable device. One proposal suggests embedding the S Pen slot on the back of the phone, positioned just below the rear camera. An alternative idea involves extending the phone’s bezel to accommodate the S Pen when not in use.
Samsung’s previous foldable phones, including the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, relied on external cases to provide storage for the S Pen. While this solution served a practical purpose, it lacked the convenience and elegance of an integrated slot. The emergence of this patent indicates Samsung’s ongoing exploration of innovative stylus integration options.
