The first part of those projections has come to pass with the Galaxy S21 Ultra offering S Pen support and now multiple insiders are reaffirming the claim that there will be no Galaxy Note 21 (via SlashGear).

Leaker Ice universe kept it short and sweet on Twitter with simply Galaxy Note accompanied by a title card saying “The End.” This comes after the leaker had made numerous assertions as late as November of last year that they had seen “no information on the development of the Note 21 series.” Given their historical reliability, particularly with Samsung devices, it’s hard to believe that we have made it through most of January without them hearing anything regarding a new Note in 2021. Ross Young of DisplaySearch chimed in with his own statement regarding the Galaxy Note line coming to an end, although he believes it may not quite be over yet. A Galaxy Note 20 FE certainly wouldn’t satisfy the diehard Note fans that are typically after true flagship specs, but it might be a more compelling affordable Note than the Note 20 was last year. Young closes by saying that the S21 series should sell at higher volumes than the S20 as a result and could even outsell the previous high watermark of the Galaxy S10. This may be part of Samsung’s intent in doing away with the Note line, it allows for a great focus on a single line of flagships like Apple.
