(Pocket-lint) - The Samsung Galaxy S21 sequence launched on the finish of January 2021, adopted by the Galaxy S22 sequence in February 2022, however in contrast to earlier years, there was no Observe machine in between.
Up to now, the Observe sequence improved on the Galaxy S vary and bettered it in sure areas, resembling design and digital camera. However in 2021 issues had been completely different, with the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Z Fold 3 taking the Observe's launch slot, providing assist for the S Pen, like the Galaxy S21 Extremely. Then in early 2022, the Galaxy S22 Extremely went and added a inbuilt S Pen.
So the place does that depart the Galaxy Observe line? Will it proceed in any respect? Here is what we all know.
Launch date and worth
- Has it already occurred within the Galaxy S22 Extremely?

Although the phrases get a little bit misplaced in translation, he's reported to have stated: "The Galaxy Observe might be It would come out as s 'Extremely'."
Whereas no official assertion has been offered by Samsung as but, it could make sense that the Galaxy Observe line was folded into the Galaxy S line, particularly after the Galaxy S22 Extremely is principally a Observe machine with its squarer design and inbuilt S Pen, and after the Galaxy Z units stole the Observe's launch slot.
Samsung beforehand stated it was dedicated to the Observe sequence, however launch timings might change. Technically each statements can stay true as by making the Galaxy S Extremely the Observe, Samsung is committing to the road however transferring the launch timing to the identical because the Galaxy S line, maybe to simplify the choices.
When it comes to worth, we might count on Samsung to launch the subsequent Observe machine - or units - across the identical costs as their predecessors. The Samsung Galaxy Observe 20 begins at £849 or $999 so we might count on comparable for the Observe 22.
Design
- S Pen inbuilt
- Waterproof, premium
- Underneath-display digital camera?
Many of the rumours surrounding the Observe 22 sequence had been whether or not or not it could seem, moderately than specifics on what it could function. That is maybe unsurprising given it is in all probability unlikely to occur so rumours surrounding its design are prone to be scarce, or principally simply present the Galaxy S22 Extremely.
We would count on any future Observe machine or units - no matter they're referred to as - to take some design particulars from different flagship Samsung units and be a premium handset with a built-in S Pen. If the S Pen is not inbuilt, it might't actually be thought-about a Observe alternative.
With the Z Fold 3 providing an under-display entrance digital camera, it is attainable any future Observe machine - or Galaxy S Extremely machine - may additionally adopts this know-how and there might be no punch gap digital camera.
Show
- 120Hz refresh fee seemingly
- Flat show attainable

The Observe 20 had a flat show with a Full HD+ decision, whereas the Observe 20 Extremely had a curved show with a Quad HD+ decision. The Galaxy S22 Extremely has a barely curved 6.8-inch show with a Quad HD+ decision, placing it consistent with the Observe 20 Extremely greater than the Observe 20.
Digital camera
- Underneath-display entrance digital camera reported
There have not been an particular rumours surrounding any future Observe's cameras as but, apart from the suggestion that there could also be an under-display entrance digital camera. That is additionally one thing that appeared on the Galaxy Z Fold 3, which launched in August 2021 as a 4-megapixel sensor.
The Galaxy S22 Extremely would not supply an under-display entrance digital camera although, so possibly it is one thing we are going to see on the Galaxy S23 Extremely?
Hardware and specs
- Qualcomm SD8 Gen 1 or Exynos 2100
- At the least 8GB RAM seemingly
- Giant battery
The subsequent Samsung Galaxy Observe will seemingly run on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 or the Exynos 2100 if we're to see one other machine this 12 months. It is seemingly we might see a minimum of 12GB RAM too, which is actually the hardware loadout of the Galaxy S22 Extremely.
The Galaxy S21 sequence ditched the microSD assist for storage enlargement so we would not be stunned to see the identical utilized to the longer term Observe sequence.
Massive batteries are additionally seemingly within the subsequent Observe sequence.
