Users of Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra have reported that the S Pen stylus on the phone emits an unpleasant odor. The smell is attributed to the heat generated by the internal components of the phone while the S Pen is in its holster.
I smelled the S Pen , and the reports are true: it kind of stinks. The S Pen is one of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra ’s signature features — it’s a stylus that lives in the phone. A report from Reddit user LatifYil kicked off the S Pen aroma discussion earlier this week, noting that the S Pen on their Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra “absolutely reeks.” Dozens of commenters with S24 Ultras (and earlier stylus-toting Galaxy phones) responded in affirmation: their styli stank.
As noted by SamMobile, a moderator on Samsung’s EU community forums offered a reasonable explanation for the smell: >This isn’t anything to be concerned about. While the S Pen is in its holster, it is close to the internal components of the phone, which will generate heat while in use, and cause the plastic to heat up. This can smell like burning, but it is similar to the smell you might experience after leaving your car in the sun for a few hour
