Price: How much will the Galaxy S22 cost?
Sales of the line didn't impress and it's likely it had a lot to do with the generally high prices, coupled with widespread financial uncertainty for many people due to the pandemic. The S21 offered handsets at slightly more affordable prices by swapping glass back panels for toughened plastic. .
At launch, the base S20 came in at $1,000 in the US, while . While we don't expect Samsung to try and make the S22 line any cheaper, we do think it's a safe bet that the company will try and match the approximate price of the S21, rather than increase it back to S20 levels.
for the Galaxy S22 series was revealed in a tweet from Leaker Roland Quandt. The supports this pricing. Although the rumored price structure seems to be consistent with the Galaxy S21 line, the equally-priced Ultra model appears to come with less RAM than its predecessor.
Quandt claims the S22 will start at 849 euros, the S22 Plus at 1,049 euros and the base S22 Ultra at 1,249 euros. That starting price of 849 euros converts to about $960, £715 or AU$1,850, but bear in mind euro prices include tax. Every base model of the Galaxy S22 could come with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, while the Galaxy S22 Ultra also offers options for 12GB of RAM and 256GB or 512GB of storage, according to Quandt. If this rumor becomes a reality, the base Galaxy S22 Ultra could come with 8GB of RAM instead of the 12GB that is in the base Galaxy S21 Ultra.
Previous leaks, however, speculate the Galaxy S22 line may be more expensive than we anticipated. According to tipster (a leaker who doesn't have much of a track record compared to others), the Galaxy S22 lineup will be priced higher than the Galaxy S21 series. The standard , while the Galaxy S22 Plus and S22 Ultra are rumored to be priced at $1,099 and $1,299, respectively. If true, Samsung's new flagship phone collection would see a $100 price hike compared to the Galaxy S21 series.

Multiple Galaxy S22 models: Plus and Ultra
It's a sure bet that Samsung will offer multiple variations of the S22 line, with different specs at a variety of prices. It's likely that we'll see a base S22, along with an upgraded S22 Plus and an S22 Ultra model with the best specs -- and the highest price to match. (.)
It's a recipe Samsung has followed for the last few generations, and as a strategy it's working. For those on more modest budgets, it's possible the company will also do a more affordable Galaxy S22 FE (FE stands for Fan Edition), although that likely won't launch with the range. The launched in October 2020, eight months after the flagship S20 lineup, and the launched earlier in January. The to achieve a more budget-friendly price.

Digit and @OnLeaks
The Galaxy S22 Ultra popped up in a leaked poster, also . The poster showed off the phone's camera bump, square design and S Pen support, with the stylus shown on top of the phone.
Renders from and a video from YouTube channel Unbox Therapy also gave an . The video, which has since and on YouTube, showed off what appears to be three dummy units of the Galaxy S22: the Galaxy S22 Ultra, S22 Plus and standard S22. Although the video doesn't offer much new information about the lineup, it does provide a glimpse at how the size of each Galaxy S22 could compare.
Galaxy S22 could support 65W charging
Samsung could be upgrading the S22 lineup with 65-watt charging support, according to . The tipster posted to Twitter in July that 65-watt fast charging is in the testing phase for Rainbow RGB, a for the S22 series. If this speculation proves true, the S22 would offer significantly faster charging times than the Galaxy S21 and , which both have 25-watt charging.
the Galaxy S22 Ultra will come with 45-watt fast charging support. This is enough to power the phone up to 70 percent in 35 minutes, according to the tipster. Ice Universe's speculation was corroborated by .
Galaxy S22 processor, Android version
Samsung tends to use both Qualcomm Snapdragon chips and its own Exynos processors in its S series phones -- depending on region -- and we fully expect it will do the same again in the S22 line. But it's safe to assume that what's used will be the next generation of both chips, possibly the Snapdragon 895 and the Exynos 2200. Both and supports the latter but WinFuture also suggests the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in place of the 895.
In 2019, for better mobile graphics power, but so far we haven't seen any Samsung phone equipped with dedicated AMD hardware. It's possible that the S22 (or more likely, the S22 Ultra) could be the first AMD phone, boasting superior graphics performance for gaming.

Galaxy S22 camera: 200-megapixel resolution?
Some rumors suggest it's the hero S22 Ultra that will see the most exciting camera upgrades this time round. That's good to hear, as the S21 Ultra's camera is superb, but wasn't a big upgrade over its predecessor.
Earlier rumors suggest that it'll be the first Samsung phone with a whopping 200-megapixel resolution, based on a teaser tweet from Samsung's own Exynos account showing a 200-megapixel phone camera. That would be a big upgrade from the already pixel-packed and would theoretically allow for crisper zoomed-in images.
However, Ice Universe suggested (via ) that the phone will retain its 108-megapixel sensor, with the main camera specs being roughly similar to the S21 Ultra. An August report from claims the Ultra model of Samsung's upcoming smartphone will house the same camera hardware as the Galaxy S21 Ultra, as well.
A leaked spec sheet for the Galaxy S22, reported on by , also shows the phone to have a 108-megapixel camera, but with a SuperClear lens. Additionally, the Galaxy S22 is said to be fitted with a 12-megapixel ultrawide and two 10-megapixel telephoto lenses with a 3x and 10x zoom and OIS support.
Speaking of zoom though, the S22 Ultra is rumored to get a continuous optical zoom, rather than simply having set 3x or 10x optical zoom lenses to switch between. Currently, if you zoom to, say, 7x zoom on the S21 Ultra that will use a combination of optical zoom and digital cropping, resulting in images that look lower in quality than when you use the 10x optical lens. A continuous zoom would allow for uncropped optical zoom throughout the entire zoom range.
The base S22 and S22 Plus models aren't expected to get similar camera boosts, so the question remains whether the S22 Ultra will stand out and justify spending the extra cash. Expect to still see multiple lenses and a 50-megapixel main sensor.

The Galaxy S22 could come in four colors
The Galaxy S22 Ultra is said to come in four color options: white, black, burgundy and green, according to a January from deals site MySmartPrice and leaker Ishan Agarwal.
This nearly matches earlier rumors from . The blog speculates that the Galaxy S22 Ultra will be offered in white, black and a new dark red color, while the Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus could come in white, black, rose gold and green. The new green option is said to be similar to the Phantom Green of the Galaxy Z Fold 3.
Ice Universe also previously tweeted an image of a burgundy Galaxy S8 with the caption Although the leaker didn't specify which Galaxy model was in the image, LetsGoDigital followed Ice Universe's post with a separate tweet saying the , black and white.
previously speculated that during event the company may have hinted at possible new color options for the upcoming Galaxy S22. At one point in the presentation (), when Samsung talks about the S Pen stylus's compatibility with the , the words "SS22 colors" are written on the . The text appeared next to a separate window showing a light green plaid pair of pants and a baby pink blazer that pointed to the words "pistachio green" and "flamingo pink." It's possible we could see these new colors for the Galaxy S22, but we won't know for sure until the phone makes its debut.
Galaxy S22's extra features
Additional features like wireless charging, NFC for contactless payments, 5G connectivity and in-display fingerprint scanners are pretty safe bets for all the S22 models, as also reported in the leak. It's also likely that Samsung will continue to offer base storage options of 128GB on all models, with upgrades up to 256GB or even 500GB available for those who want the extra space.
Don't expect to expand that storage, though, as the S21 series removed the option to add microSD cards. That was a real disappointment, particularly on the S21 Ultra, as its high-resolution images and 8K videos take up a lot of space. Fingers crossed for a return, but don't get your hopes up.
