No Bluetooth S Pen for S26 Ultra, no Upgrade...

I'm not sure if it was because I had done a Verizon order before but I had recalled a 30-day return window and Samsung does 15 days. I accidentally kept the phone too long to return it but fully intended on returning it after verifying the updated OS ONE UI 8 on the S24. Of course Samsung delayed the upgrade until after many of the early orders would have had their trade in time expire. I was so irritated because I was so ready to get rid of it. I just want to remind Samsung that I'm definitely not going to get the 26 Ultra if it doesn't have the S pen with Bluetooth because it's just going backwards. This article likes to think they are not going to bring it back and depending on how sales went they'll pull iPhone vs and cut features just to pull in as much profit as possible because people just want the newest thing. I'm typically that person but certain features that I use all the time, I just can't stand for it. The Galaxy watch sucks and battery life is terrible and the ring is horrible if you set up gestures because it turns off my video constantly from the gesture and has **bleep** me over many times so I turned it off all together and every time I switch to my watch the thing is dead.. the pen is never dead..

I don't mind spending extra for the pen if it have Bluetooth. I use 24 Ultra S pen for taking photos with tripod. There are 3rd party Bluetooth shutter remotes available but they can't match with the precision of S pen.

I will be happy if they can release an accessory, Bluetooth shutter remote by Samsung with the precision of S pen.

Otherwise for me, there's no point in upgrading from S24 Ultra.

Watch and ring not going to replace S pen camera shutter ability

SAMSUNG PLEASE BRING BACK BLUETOOTH S-PEN. I sent my S25 Ultra back as soon as I got it cause you removed this feature. Every girl that owns an iPhone wants my phone immediately after I take a picture using the s-pen. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SHOW THEM THIS FEATURE IN A COMMERCIAL AND IT WILL BOOST SALES 15% SAMSUNG keeps removing feature headphone jack expandable memory. The NOTE 20 Ultra had 16gb of ram not 12gb and had expandable memory. Listen to your customers. Why do mid range SAMSUNG phones have expandable memory and a headphone jack? Is it because you want to charge for storage?  Please add this back or I am going to buy something else.

I've been held to my Note 10 and 20 ultra because of the sd card slot and the Bluetooth in the pen. Everyone in my house got S25s, and even me. I still haven't upgraded to the S25 ultra. I'm having them send it back they can keep the money at this point if I gotta trade in my Note 20 ultra for a downgrade. I'm good. I've been using Samsung since the S4 and S5. The S7 edge was okay, but I wanted my S5 back. Should've never got rid of it
