[Poll Results!] If the Galaxy Note 21 doesn’t come, what will you buy instead?

Galaxy Note fans, and there are a lot of them, found themselves in a spot of bother. Rumors have started picking up that there may not be a Galaxy Note 21 next year. Now it’s not uncommon to hear outlandish rumors about Samsung devices long before they’re due.

However, with the Galaxy S21 Ultra now expected to feature S Pen support, many are taking that as an indication of Samsung shaking things up next year. A foldable phone with an S Pen has been rumoured about as well. While it’s not known if the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will have one, many would expect that it might possibly feature the stylus.

As disappointing as it may be, these changes might lead to the demise of the Galaxy Note series. Samsung’s high-end smartphone lineup is already pretty crowded. It has two foldable phones, three Galaxy S21 flagships plus a Fan Edition due next year. Many analysts are of the view that something’s got to give and it’s feared that the curtain will fall on the Galaxy Note.

Galaxy Note loyalists often find it difficult to use any other device. If this does happen and there’s no Galaxy Note 21, what will you buy instead? The S Pen is what binds a lot of customers to the Note lineup. Would switch to the Galaxy Z Fold 3 or the Galaxy S21 Ultra for the S Pen experience?

It’s important to note, pun unintended, that both of these devices may not store the S Pen internally like the Galaxy Note. Samsung is rumored to offer a separate case for the Galaxy S21 Ultra that will store the S Pen externally. Given the nature of foldable devices, this may also be the solution for the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

The Galaxy S21 Ultra may not come with the S Pen in the box. Customers will have to buy one separately. That’s another problem they don’t face with the Galaxy Note. Evidently, none of these devices will replace the Note. Customers may just be backed into a corner. If they need the S Pen, they have to pay extra for the stylus and the cover to carry it.
