Reception

edit

S Pen bad smell

edit

Some users noted the unpleasant smell of the Galaxy S24 Ultra'sS Pen,likened to "burnt plastic". A moderator on Samsung's EU forums said the smell was a normal part of the pen's operation, and "isn't anything to be concerned about".[25][26]

This smell is likely from chemical reactions to the plastic shell of the S Pen, induced by the internal heat of the phone.[27]
