Lost or cracked the S Pen that came with your Galaxy S25 Ultra? Good news: this is the one Ultra model where a compatible replacement isn't giving up anything compared to the genuine Samsung pen. Here's why, plus color options and compatibility notes.
- No Bluetooth Drawback: Field tests show >95% of Galaxy users rely on S Pen exclusively for on-screen notes, signatures, and drawing where Bluetooth is completely unused.
- Screen Compatibility: Built on passive EMR technology. Works seamlessly on S25 Ultra screen without pairing, charging, or battery maintenance.
- Physical Silo Fit: Precision-molded to latch securely into the internal silo with the authentic tactile click-to-release spring mechanism.
- Replacement Value: S$25 vs S$68+ for Samsung original service center parts. Includes replacement nibs for long-term use.
Why the S25 Ultra is different from every Ultra before it
Starting with the S25 Ultra, Samsung removed the Bluetooth chip from the S Pen entirely, even from the genuine Samsung pen. There is no Bluetooth version to buy, genuine or otherwise, and Samsung has confirmed no Bluetooth accessory pen exists for this model. That means Air Actions (using the pen as a remote camera shutter or for gesture control) simply isn't a feature of the S25 Ultra S Pen at all, not even the original one that came in the box.
Practically, this means a compatible non-Bluetooth replacement for the S25 Ultra gives you the exact same functionality as a brand new genuine Samsung pen, because there's no Bluetooth feature set to lose in the first place. This is different from the S24 Ultra and earlier models, where the genuine pen did include Bluetooth Air Actions, and a compatible replacement was a genuine trade-off. On the S25 Ultra, there's no trade-off to make. The S26 Ultra carries the same no-Bluetooth design forward too, with a new pen shape, see our S26 Ultra S Pen replacement guide if that's your model.
What still works
Everything that actually matters for day-to-day use is untouched:
- Writing, note-taking, and sketching with 4096-level pressure sensitivity
- The 0.7mm precision tip
- Air Command, the on-screen shortcut menu that pops up when you remove the pen
- Screen-off memo, hover translate, and other core S Pen features that don't rely on Bluetooth
Color options
We carry the S25 Ultra stylus in three finishes:
- Grey / Black
- Grey / Bronze
- Blue / Silver
Color is cosmetic only — all three perform identically.
Is this compatible with S24 Ultra or S26 Ultra too?
No. S Pen builds are specific to each Ultra generation and are not interchangeable, even though the S26 Ultra and S25 Ultra happen to share the same non-Bluetooth pen design in our listing. Always match the pen to your exact phone model. For the full generation-by-generation rundown across the entire Ultra, Note, Tab S, and Z Fold lineup, see our Samsung S Pen Compatibility Guide, or our dedicated S26 Ultra vs S25 Ultra colours comparison if you're deciding between those two specifically.
How to tell if your S Pen is actually the problem
- Not detected at all: often the phone's S Pen sensor or silo contacts, not the pen — try cleaning the silo opening first
- Detected but not writing smoothly: usually a worn tip or screen protector interference
- Air Command menu not appearing: check the pen is fully removed from the silo, since this is what triggers the menu, not Bluetooth

FAQ
Does the genuine S25 Ultra S Pen have Bluetooth?
No. Samsung removed Bluetooth entirely from the S25 Ultra S Pen, and has confirmed no Bluetooth accessory version exists for this model, genuine or otherwise.
Am I losing any features by buying a compatible replacement instead of genuine?
No. Since the genuine S25 Ultra pen has no Bluetooth features to begin with, a compatible non-Bluetooth replacement matches it feature for feature.
Will this fit my S24 Ultra or S26 Ultra?
No. S Pen builds are specific to each Ultra generation and are not cross-compatible, even where designs look similar.
Does color affect performance?
No, color is cosmetic only. All three finishes have identical specs and pressure sensitivity.
What if the pen doesn't get detected after I install it?
Check the silo opening for lint or debris first. If it's still not detected, message us with your order details and we'll help troubleshoot.
