That is S Pen support, something that would make the Galaxy Fold 2 amazing, won&#8217;t be available unfortunately.<br \/>\nMany people, including myself, have said that the Galaxy Fold would be almost perfect if it had S Pen support. The reason for that is because it unfolds to showcase a much larger display. And having a stylus on a larger display is a lot easier for multi-tasking. Especially for those that are Galaxy Note users.<br \/>\nIt could be due to the display not being strong enough<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s important to note that foldable smartphone displays are much softer than traditional smartphones. A big reason for that is because they are made of plastic for the most part \u2013 even though Samsung has been using Ultra Thin Glass on the Galaxy Z Flip and rumored to be on the Galaxy Fold 2. It&#8217;s still a lot softer than a traditional display. And that could pose an issue for a stylus.<br \/>\nThe Ultra Thin Glass display on the Galaxy Z Flip is about 0.03mm thick. While the Galaxy Note 10&#8217;s display is around 0.4mm thick. That&#8217;s a big difference and is going to make S Pen support almost impossible.<br \/>\nSamsung has determined, according to this report, that UTG and the transparent PI films that it was using on the original Galaxy Fold, are not suitable for use wit a S Pen.<br \/>\nBasically, that means that it&#8217;s going to be a good little while before we see a foldable from Samsung with the S Pen included. Of course, durability is still a concern with foldables, so Samsung is doing some extra testing here to make sure that the S Pen would be a good fit for the device before launching it with the S Pen. Which is smart, after what happened with the original Galaxy Fold last year.<br \/>\nNo S Pen Support doesn&#8217;t mean the Galaxy Fold 2 is DOA<br \/>\nThe Galaxy Fold 2 is still going to be available for the hardcore fans of Samsung and technology in general. Which are those that really want a S Pen for the Galaxy Fold.<br \/>\nBut not having S Pen support doesn&#8217;t make the Galaxy Fold 2 dead on arrival, fortunately. It&#8217;s unfortunate that it won&#8217;t be available, but the Galaxy Fold 2 is still shaping up to be a really impressive second-generation product from Samsung.<br \/>\nThe post Here&#8217;s Some Bad News About The Galaxy Fold 2 appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/samsung-galaxy-fold-ah.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1200\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to reports out of South Korea, the Galaxy Fold 2 isn&#8217;t going to have a feature that everyone was [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":3854,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3853","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bez-kategorii"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3853","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3853"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3853\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3855,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3853\/revisions\/3855"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3854"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3853"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3853"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3853"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
