Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ to feature wider displays: Report

Seoul, Oct 16 : Samsung is planning to launch its next premium flagship, Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22+, soon. As per a recent report, S22 generation will be a bit wider and less "skinny and tall" than the current S21.

GSMArena reported that according to tipster Ice Universe, the edges of the smartphones would be slightly rounder with minimal bezels.

"This is the first time we have seen the Tempered Glass Screen Protector of Galaxy S22 and S22+. They are more rounded and slightly fatter than S21 series," the tipster noted.

Bezels are minimal all around and appear to be symmetrical on all sides. However, it should be noted that screen protectors can sometimes be a bit deceiving in terms of bezel proportions.

In terms of specifications, the upcoming series may feature a new 10MP telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom capabilities as opposed to a high-resolution sensor with poor optical zoom.

Samsung is planning to take a different approach on the Galaxy S22/S22+ models that will arrive early next year. The Galaxy S22 series smartphones will have a 10MP telephoto lens that supports 3x optical zoom rather than the hybrid zoom of the Galaxy S20/S21 era.

Previous rumours suggested that the Galaxy S22 Ultra is expected to continue the dual 10-megapixel telephoto camera setup on the Galaxy S21 Ultra. One of the lenses will be a periscope lens that will offer 10x optical zoom.

Galaxy S22+ is expected to be equipped with a 4,500 mAh battery. In terms of software, Galaxy S22 will be pre-installed with OneUI 4.x based on Android 12.
