Description:
The Samsung Galaxy S22 range has leaked so extensively that there's only really 3 things we don't yet know.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
At this point theres very little left to learn about the Samsung Galaxy S22 range assuming that the leaks and rumors weve heard so far are accurate.
The entire range has been extensively leaked, right down to their weight and dimensions, and while some early leaks disagreed on key specs and features, recent leaks are largely in agreement. So Samsung might not have many surprises for us on February 9 when it officially unveils the Galaxy S22 range.
That said, there are still a few things that we arent totally clear on.
Things that either havent leaked, or where the leaks dont have us fully convinced. With that in mind weve dug up the three main things that we still have left to learn about the Samsung Galaxy S22 range. 1. The release date (Image credit: Samsung)
While were almost certain that Samsung will announce the Galaxy S22 range on February 9 (as its confirmed that its holding a big event then ), what were not so sure of is when youll actually be able to buy the phones.
There has been at least one release date leaked, with a source claiming that the phones will go on sale on February 24 . However, they also claimed that the announcement would be on February 8, which we now know to be a day out.
Given that they got that wrong (albeit only slightly) were not totally confident of their release date claim, especially as it hasnt been backed up by other sources. Still, theres a good chance the range will go on sale
around that date at least. 2. The charging speeds A Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (Image credit: Future)
How fast will the Samsung Galaxy S22 range charge? Weve heard a couple of times that the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra might support 45W charging , but at least one source points to 25W for the whole range .
Theres also a chance the Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus will support 45W , but fewer leaks point to that than the Ultra, and theres not much word on the standard model. So the leaks arent totally clear here.
Were also even less sure of how speedy the wireless charging will be. Theres evidence that Samsung is working on a 25W wireless charger , but no guarantee that any let alone all phones in the Samsung Galaxy S22 range will support it.
For reference, every phone in the Samsung Galaxy S21 range supports 25W wired charging and 15W wireless charging, so there could be some upgrades this
year, but were just not certain. 3. How much storage the S22 Ultra will have The Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra tops out at 512GB (Image credit: Future)
While sources seem to agree that the Samsung Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22 Plus will come in 128GB and 256GB configurations, theres less agreement on the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
Some sources point to a choice of 256GB or 512GB of storage, while at least one other suggests it will also come in a 128GB version .
But then weve also heard of a 1TB model in some leaks. That would be more storage than you can get with the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra , but if such a version does arrive, it might not do so until later than the other models .
So even if these leaks are accurate we might not learn about this model on February 9. Samsung Galaxy S22 colors: every rumored shade
