Description:
Samsung has reportedly started mass producing components for the Galaxy S22 range, suggesting a February launch is likely.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
A leak recently suggested that the Samsung Galaxy S22 range could land in February , and thats now looking all the more likely, as the phones have reportedly now entered mass production.
Thats according to WinFuture , which claims that Samsung started ramping up the production of some components in late October. So far this mass
production is apparently just for a few components, such as flex cables that connect the circuit boards together, but a slow start like this isnt unusual according to WinFuture.
More importantly, Samsung usually starts mass-producing new Galaxy S models a few months before launch, so this lines up nicely with the rumors of
February, especially if the range lands in early February. Check out the best Samsung phones It's almost Black Friday Read our full Google Pixel 6 review
Wed previously heard that the Samsung Galaxy S22 range could land in January
, which also remains possible if Samsung has started mass producing the
phones now, but we wouldnt think theyd land before late January if mass production has only just started.
Either way, it seems like there shouldnt be too much longer to wait for Samsungs next flagship phones, with the Galaxy S22 range probably landing
just over a year after the mid-January launch of the Galaxy S21 range, and just under two years after the mid-February 2020 launch of the Galaxy S20 range.
We would of course take these mass production claims with a pinch of salt for now, but given that this timing lines up with release date rumors and with previous launch timings, it seems likely to be accurate.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 range might not be the only thing Samsung launches in early 2022, with a report suggesting that the long-rumored Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will land in January 2022.
That in itself makes us think we probably wont see the S22 range before February, since Samsung probably wouldnt want to launch these phones too
close together, but either way, that could make for quite a packed period for Samsung.
On top of that, there are also two tech expos at the start of the year. We have CES 2022 in early January, where the Galaxy S21 FE will reportedly make an appearance, then MWC 2022 in late February through early March.
We dont expect the Samsung Galaxy S22 range to appear at either event, as those phones are high-profile enough to justify a separate launch, but plenty of other phones could be unveiled. So if nothing in the smartphone world has caught your eye this year, you probably dont have long to wait for a whole bunch of new options. The Galaxy S22 is likely to be one of the best smartphones
