Tech: Galaxy S22 Ultra leaks suggest Samsung’s next smartphone will borrow heavily from the Note

Leaked Galaxy S22 Ultra renders suggest Samsung’s next flagship smartphone will borrow heavily from the Note’s DNA with an S-Pen dock and a wider screen to write on

  • Renders of the upcoming device were published by leaker Evan Blass on Twitter 
  • The phone’s casing, expected to come in four colours, has a flat top and bottom
  • It looks like it sports a similar camera arrangement to its S21 Ultra predecessor
  • But the ‘camera island’ is gone in the new model, which favours a flush design
  • Samsung are expected to roll out the Galaxy S22 range in the February of 2022 


Samsung’s next flagship smartphone — the Galaxy S22 Ultra — will likely borrow heavily from the DNA of the Galaxy Note, if leaked mock-ups are anything to go by.

Renders published by phone leaker Evan Blass on Twitter suggest that the upcoming model will sport an S-Pen dock, a wider screen to write on and a flat top and bottom.

One similarity between the Galaxy S22 Ultra and its S21 Ultra predecessor, however, is the camera array which, while more flush to the casing, keeps the same pattern.

Samsung are expected to launch the Galaxy S22 range in the February of 2022. 

According to SamMobile, the front face of the Ultra model is expected to sport a single 6.8 inch Super AMOLED Infinity-O display with a 120Hz variable refresh rate and thin bezels.

The rear, meanwhile — which dispenses with the ‘camera island’ seen on its S21 counterpart — sports a matt finish said to resist the appearance of fingerprints. 

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S22 Ultra with four colour options to choose from — black, burgundy, dark green and white.

Under the hood, as it were, the phone is expected to contain either an Exynos 2200 or Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor — depending on the retail region — along with stereo speakers and a 5,000mAh battery that will support 45W fast charging.

In an upgrade from previous models, the S22 Ultra is reportedly to be equipped with a 108 megapixel primary camera with an AI-powered detail-enhancement mode.

Alongside the main camera, the Galaxy S22 Ultra is also expected to sport a 12 megapixel ultrawide camera and two 10 megapixel telephoto cameras, affording the phone with both a 3 and 10x optical zoom.

The back will also feature the laser autofocus module and an LED flash 

Poking out through a cut-out in the the top of the front display, meanwhile, will also be a 40 megapixel selfie camera — with Samsung apparently not yet ready to roll out under-display camera tech outside of its Galaxy Z Fold 3 model.
