Samsung’s Galaxy S22 is coming soon. Here’s everything we know so far about the company’s 2022 flagship.
Samsung is launching the Galaxy S22 soon, and there has already been a slew of leaks and reports about what to expect. From what we can gather, the Galaxy S22 is going to be an evolution of the S21 rather than a revolutionary change, much like the S21 was an evolution of the S20. This means the design language will generally stay the same, but the company will work on smoothing out flaws and build on the solid foundation it has already laid. No reports on the pricing of the Galaxy S22 family have emerged, but Samsung is likely to keep it in the same range as the Galaxy S21. This means that the S22 could start at $799 for the base model, with the S22 Ultra going into the $1,000-plus range depending on the configuration, and the S22 Plus falling somewhere in the middle. As for when the Galaxy S22 could launch, going solely off past trends, it could either be around January — as the company did last year — or closer to Mobile World Congress in March. A report from Jon Prosser claims the Samsung Galaxy S22 is scheduled for a February launch, with the company delaying it from an earlier December launch. A later report from SamMobile corroborates that the S22 is scheduled for a launch in February. An even later report claimed it would be announced on February 10 and released on February 18. Any way you look at it, the S22 is expected to get announced in the first three months of 2022. The Samsung Galaxy S22 will, if rumors are accurate, inherit a lot of the design stylings of the S21 — albeit ditching the plastic on the base S21 for glass in the S22. This means that the same style of wraparound camera bump will be found on the S22, with the same hole-punch display on the front. As for the displays themselves, the S22 is said to be the smallest and will sport a 6.06-inch FHD+ 1080p display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The Galaxy S22+ takes this up a notch with a 6.55-inch FHD+ display and a 120Hz refresh rate, and the S22 Ultra leads the pack with a pretty large 6.81-inch QHD+ 120Hz display. Renders purporting to show off the S22 and S22+ emerged from OnLeaks earlier this year, giving us a look at the phone itself and confirming the S21-style design.
