Samsung recently launched the Galaxy S22 series at the Galaxy Unpacked event.
Although the design is somewhat similar to the S21 series, the company has made significant improvements to all models featuring Gorilla Glass Victus+ on the rear panel.
That said, the Galaxy S22 series comes with One UI 4.1 based on Android 12 out of the box. Samsung also announced that it will deliver four years of major Android updates supplemented by five years of security patches.
Unsurprisingly, the recently launched series includes three models, with the Galaxy S22 Ultra being the first phone to include an integrated S Pen that uses an “AI-based coordination prediction system”.
The South Korean smartphone maker has also redesigned the rear camera array which is now metal with a separate lens protrusion for each camera.
This time, the international version of the Galaxy S22 series will be powered by Exynos 2200 while the Indian, Chinese, American and Canadian variants will feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.
That said, here we will keep an eye out for all the updates, bugs, and issues related to the Samsung Galaxy S22 series.
