Samsung’s latest patent suggests the ability to use the S Pen on an edge display
The latest rumor coming from SamMobile is that Samsung might soon add the feature allowing the S Pen — found with the Galaxy Note line — to interact with the objects found on the curved edge section of the phone’s screen. This rumor stems out of a patent filed by Samsung detailing this exact feature.
While not all patents end up being implemented into products, the ability to specifically interact with the edge display on Samsung’s devices with the S Pen is something that we can see happening.
As Samsung adds more functionality to the edge display with every new device that they release, the ability to write on the small section of the screen seems inevitable. Perhaps it’ll come with the launch of the Galaxy Note 6? We have our fingers crossed.
