If you're trying to figure out which S Pen colour goes with your Galaxy Ultra, Samsung didn't make it simple this generation. The S26 Ultra jumped from three S Pen colours to six, while the S25 Ultra kept its original curated set of three. Here's exactly what's available for each, and how to make sure you order the right one.
- Color Finishes: S25 Ultra features matte titanium tones (Titanium Gray, Black, Silver Blue). S26 Ultra introduces refined metallic anodized finishes.
- Pen Barrel vs Cap: Only the clicker cap is exposed when inserted into the silo; the internal barrel remains uniform dark matte finish across models.
- Cross-Device Drawing: Both pens can draw on either phone due to universal EMR resonance, but each clicker cap profile is tuned to its respective frame curve.
S26 Ultra: The Expanded Six-Colour Collection
Samsung doubled the S26 Ultra's S Pen lineup, pairing each pen body with a distinct tip colour to match the phone's six launch finishes:
| Pen | Body | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| White/Blue | White | Blue |
| White/Silver | White | Silver |
| White/Gold | White | Gold |
| Black/Purple | Black | Purple |
| Black/Grey | Black | Grey |
| Black/Black | Black | Black |
The White/Gold and White/Blue pairings are the standout new additions this generation, both online-exclusive-style finishes that give the S26 Ultra a genuinely different look from S25. If your S26 Ultra is in a lighter finish, White/Silver or White/Gold will match cleanly; darker finishes pair naturally with any of the three black-body options.
Samsung S25 Ultra S Pen Colors: Official List & Finishes
The S25 Ultra kept things simple with three colourways:
| Pen | Body | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Grey/Bronze | Grey | Bronze |
| Blue/Silver | Blue | Silver |
| Grey/Black | Grey | Black |
Blue/Silver is the most requested of the three and tends to sell out first — if you're matching a Titanium Silverblue or Titanium Blue S25 Ultra, that's the one to grab.
Do S Pen colours need to match your phone exactly?
Not functionally, no. The S Pen works purely on pressure-sensing and Air Command — there's no colour-linked feature or pairing requirement. Colour is entirely cosmetic. That said, most buyers do match body colour to their phone's finish since the S Pen sits visibly in the chamber.
Compatibility: can I use an S26 Ultra pen on an S25 Ultra (or vice versa)?
No. S Pen builds are generation-specific to the Ultra line — an S26 Ultra S Pen will not seat or charge correctly in an S25 Ultra's chamber, and the reverse is also true. If you're shopping for a replacement or spare, always match the pen to your exact phone model first, colour second. For the full generation-by-generation compatibility rundown (including Note series, Tab S, and Z Fold), see our Samsung S Pen Compatibility Guide.
Which one should you buy?
- Want the widest colour choice: S26 Ultra's six-colour lineup gives you more room to pick a pen that stands out or blends in.
- Want the most popular finish: S25 Ultra's Blue/Silver remains the single most in-demand S Pen colour across both generations.
- Replacing a lost or damaged pen: stick to your exact model and body colour — tip colour is cosmetic-only and safe to change if your preferred exact match isn't in stock.

FAQ
Are S26 Ultra and S25 Ultra S Pens interchangeable?
No, each Ultra generation uses its own S Pen build. They are not cross-compatible between S25 Ultra and S26 Ultra.
Does S Pen colour affect performance?
No. All colour variants within a generation have identical specs, pressure sensitivity, and features. Colour is purely cosmetic.
Which S25 Ultra S Pen colour is hardest to find in stock?
Blue/Silver typically sells out fastest given its popularity.
Is the S26 Ultra White/Gold S Pen an online-exclusive colour?
It pairs with one of the S26 Ultra's online-exclusive phone finishes, so stock tends to be more limited than the standard White/Blue or White/Silver options.
