S Pens compatible with your Galaxy Z Fold4

To help you get the most out of your everyday life, there are two versions of the S Pen that you can use on your Galaxy Z Fold4.

  • S Pen Fold Edition:

This S Pen boasts has a 1.5mm tip that will make you feel like you are writing on paper. However, this device does not support the pairing function, nor does it support Bluetooth pairing, so wireless control function is not available.

 

  • S Pen Pro:

With this device the Bluetooth function is available. It also gives you the possibility to switch between different connected devices by tapping a simple button. The S Pen Pro also gives you the possibility to charge it easily with the USB Type C.

Another advantage of the S Pen Pro is that it gives you the ability to locate it quickly and easily via the SmartThings app, as with other Samsung devices such as the Galaxy Buds2 Pro or the new Galaxy Watch5.

Please note: To use the S Pen on the Galaxy Z Fold 4 device, you must first change the mode to Z Fold mode. Use S Pen mode on other phones or tablets.
