New Delhi: Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, the top-tier flagship from Samsung, is likely to be unveiled by the South Korean giant on February 8, a new leak claims. According to famed tipster Ice Universe, the tech major may not officially unveil the Galaxy S22 Ultra until February 8. Images posted by the leakster on Twitter also indicate that the flagship may arrive with an S Pen, similar to ones we have seen in the Galaxy Note series that Samsung has apparently pulled the plug on.
"Galaxy S22 Ultra came too late. If it is released on February 8, at that time, at least five Snapdragon 8 GEN1 flagship phones have been listed," Ice Universe tweeted from his official handle @UniverseIce.
The upcoming Galaxy S22 Ultra may exceed this year's Galaxy S21 Ultra's 1500 nits of peak brightness. The other models in Samsung's Galaxy S22 line will be announced on the same day, says a report by GizmoChina.
Earlier, last week, a leak suggested that the top-tier Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature squared-off edges, similar to what we have seen in the Galaxy Note 10+ and Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. The leak also indicates that the smaller Galaxy S22+ and the vanilla Galaxy S22 may launch with a look similar to this year's Galaxy S21 and S21+.
The leaked images of the tempered and lens films clearly indicate that the Galaxy S22 and S22+ will have a similar back camera module as the Galaxy S21 line.
This came days after it was speculated that the South Korean smartphone major may host two 'Unpacked' events next year. While the first ‘Unpacked’ event will be hosted on January 4, the second one will be taking place on February 8. Both the events will see the launches of the long-rumoured Galaxy S21 FE and flagship Galaxy S22 series, respectively, according to a famed leakster.
While it is known that the Galaxy FE lineup comprises the upper-mid-range segment of handsets, the Galaxy S22 will be the next flagship series from Samsung. According to reports, the delay in long-awaited Galaxy S21 FE is attributed to the global semiconductor crisis and not due to a strategy by the South Korean handset major.
