Samsung plans to reduce the thickness of the Galaxy Fold 7 and change the way the stylus works

Samsung is actively researching new technologies to reduce the thickness of its upcoming Galaxy Fold 7 without losing support for the S Pen. According to insiders, the new flagship may get rid of the traditional digitizer — a key component responsible for the operation of the stylus.

Today, the digitizer is an important element that ensures accurate input with a stylus thanks to electromagnetic resonance (EMR) technology. This technology has been used in the Galaxy Fold line since the Galaxy Fold 3. However, the digitizer adds extra thickness to the device, which limits design possibilities.

Samsung is trying to solve this problem by exploring a technology similar to Apple's Active Electrostatic (AES). In this system, the electrical signal is generated not by the display, but by the stylus itself, which has a built-in battery and electronic components. This approach allows you to significantly reduce the thickness of the smartphone, although it makes the stylus slightly larger and requires charging — as in the case of the Apple Pencil.

The Galaxy Fold 7, due out in 2025, is expected to be Samsung's thinnest foldable smartphone with S Pen support. This will allow the brand to compete effectively in the market of foldable devices, where the elegance of design is becoming a key factor.

It is worth noting that Samsung does not plan to embed the S Pen into the Galaxy Fold 7 body — the stylus will still be available separately.

Unlike the Fold 7, the Galaxy S25 Ultra lineup will retain the traditional digitizer and built-in S Pen. This means users will get the familiar stylus experience, without any compromises in convenience and functionality.
