Tag: Samsung Galaxy S22

Samsung has finally confirmed the launch date and time for the Galaxy Unpacked event, February 9th at 10am ET/7am PT.

The invitation doesn’t reveal very much about the upcoming phone but has the tagline “The Epic Standard” and features both an S and a 22 in invite the animation.

With that, we expect Samsung to unveil the Galaxy S22 series and the Galaxy Tab S8 series going off previous rumour.

In fact, earlier today the well-known Evan Blass has leaked the Galaxy S22 series in a rainbow of colours.

According to previous leaks, the Samsung’s Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, up to 12GB of RAM, 512GB of storage and work with an S Pen. The other S22 models reportedly lack the S Pen support, sport an S21-like design with three cameras and feature the same Snapdragon 8 gen 1 chipset as the S22 Ultra.

Today, Samsung made a post about its upcoming Unpacked event but didn’t actually say a date. Rumours previously indicated that the event would take place on February 8th. But a new post from the reliable tipster says Ice Universe suggests the S22 series will launch one day later.

Ice Universe reportedly made a post on the China-based microblogging site Weibo indicating that the Galaxy S22 will launch on February 9th, alongside the Galaxy Tab S8.

However, Digital Daily announced that the phone will launch on February 8th, with the phone coming out on February 24th.

Rumours indicate that the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, up to 12GB of RAM, 512GB of storage and work with an S Pen. The other models will lack the S Pen, sport an S21-like design, a trio of cameras, and the aforementioned Snapdragon 8 Fen 1 chipset.

Samsung will likely unveil the official launch date for the Galaxy S22 series sooner than later.

Samsung seems to be making three variants S22 series variants, like legitimately nine phones: three S22 Ultras, three S22+’ and three S22 phones, according to SamMobile.

Two sets of S series handsets isn’t uncommon. Typically, Samsung releases Exynos and Qualcomm models — Exynos for Korean Galaxy S22 devices and Qualcomm for Canada and the U.S. These phones are separated by model numbers that end in “U,” “B,” and “N.” However, the folks at SamMobile have now spotted an S22 trio that ends with the letter “E” in the model number.

Samsung has never had a model number that ends with “E” for a product it has released, but it has used it for the unreleased Galaxy S21 FE, according to the FCC.

The writers at Galaxy Club suspect that this model number could be used for handset variants for regions such as Africa, Asia and India, but it’s unclear. It’s also unclear what chipset these S22 variants will sport. It’s possible that some African and Asian markets will now get Qualcomm-chipped phones.

At this point, there’s no telling why Samsung is releasing this third set of handsets, but the South Korean company will likely launch the handset sometime in January or February next year.

A concept design for Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S22+ has surfaced online.

This concept smartphone design comes from the Technizo Concept YouTube channel, which partnered with LetsGoDigital. It’s worth noting that this is only a concept and not a leak, and it’s based on the Galaxy S21 series.

The design resembles the S21 series and sports a very similar rear-facing camera setup and design. The camera sensors on this handset seem quite large, however. On the front the phone sports a hole-punch front camera with small bezels.

The device has a slight back curve and all its keys are on the right-hand side, including the power button and volume rocker. The concept video also shows the phone in some beautiful colours — hopefully the actual S22+ ships with similar colour options.

Rumours indicate that the phone features a 50-megapixel main shooter, a 12-megapixel ultrawide and a 10-megapixel telephoto camera. The phone is also expected to feature a 4,500mAh battery and a 45W fast wired charging.

Further, the phone is expected to feature Samsung’s or Qualcomm’s next-gen processors.

Samsung’s Galaxy S22 is set to launch early next year and is expected to feature a significant camera upgrade.

Ice Universe, a well-known Samsung leaker, has posted some of the S22 and S22+’s purported specs. According to the leak, Samsung’s devices are set to use a GN5 camera sensor, which means both smartphones will offer a 50-megapixel camera sensor. This is a huge upgrade as the S21 only offered a 12-megapixel primary shooter. It’s possible that Samsung might use the GN5 for another camera lens, like to replace its 64-megapixel telephoto, but that seems very unlikely.

The GN5 sensor supports video up to 8K at 30fps and 12.5-megapixel output with 4-in-1 pixel binning.

Additionally, Ice claims that the S22 won’t use an Under Display Camera (UDC), but will stick with the hole-punch display from previous years.

It can be confirmed that the Galaxy S22 series still uses Hole, and still uses the same camera area design as the S21

Furthermore, Ice Universe indicates that the S22 will apparently feature 45W charging speeds with USB-C. The Galaxy Note 10+ offered this charging speed, but Samsung’s charging speeds are typically limited to 25W. The report also states that the S22 Ultra will be the only one with this higher charging speed.

Lastly, Ice says that the Exynos 2200 processor on Samsung’s device will feature a 1× Cortex-X2 core at 2.9GHz with 3 at 2.8GHz and 4 at 2.2GHz. The AMD GPU, meanwhile, will have a frequency of 1250 MHz, though only on the S22 Ultra.
