S-Pen smells like burnt plastic

[holypassion]

When I remove my S-Pen from my S25 Ultra, it smells like an odor of electrical components that burn out. Has anyone experienced this? The phone itself doesn't smell that way, just the S-Pen.

Don't have the answer but mine does too lol not as bad as my s24's pen tho, smelt weird
Maybe from the heat of the phone if its doing something heavy

Have you experienced any other issues besides the odor? Customer Service is acting like they never heard of such a thing...

I just smelled mine, and it does too

Thank you for the confirmation

I'm not sure, I don't use the pen that much to notice. Wish I still had my s24 to test it

Same situation here with my previous phones... I just exchanged my S25 ultra and I have yet to pull out the S pen... very concerning, smells like lithium ion chemical type smell to me.

@holypassion This has been noted by people with this phone and earlier Ultras. It seems to have something to do with the composition of the material used for the S Pen.
