Here’s everything we know so far about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S22 phones, including design details, specs, pricing, and more.
Update: January 17, 2022 at 5:56 PM ET: We’ve updated our Samsung Galaxy S22 rumor hub with leaked Galaxy S22 Plus renders and specs. Read more in the Design section of this article. Original article: It’s been about eleven months since Samsung launched the Galaxy S21 series. The company has since unveiled its fresh set of foldable phones in the form of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3. With no plans for Galaxy Note phones this year, the next set of Samsung flagships will likely come in the form of the Galaxy S22 lineup. Samsung hasn’t officially announced the name of the next set of Galaxy S devices. However, we believe the company will stick to the nomenclature it has followed since the Galaxy S20 series, at least for the bottom two models. Keeping with the numbering system, the new phones should fall under the Galaxy S22 moniker. Most of the leaks we’ve seen also refer to the three upcoming phones in the lineup as the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22 Plus, and Galaxy S22 Ultra, so we doubt Samsung will stray from convention next year. An early December rumor speculated that the S22 Ultra would actually arrive as the S22 Note. However, we’ve heard no other sources corroborate that naming scheme, so it’s worth taking with a major grain of salt. As for the release date, Samsung pushed forward the launch of the Galaxy S21 series by almost a month in 2021. The phones were released in January as opposed to Samsung’s usual practice of unveiling Galaxy flagships in February. It’s too early to say whether Samsung would also stick to a January launch for the Galaxy S22 series.
