Update [20.06.2022]

The Samsung Galaxy S22 FE threatened with cancellation?

According Sam-Mobile next year’s Fan Edition model is likely to be cancelled. Journalists from the portal claim that during the original search they did not find any device registered with the signature on any website SM-S900that he would be Samsung Galaxy S22 FE.

Admittedly, the Fan Edition series seems canceled most likely. Samsung has both flagship models in its portfolio galaxys as well as their budget versions of the series Galaxy A. The devices marked FE were to be a cheaper equivalent of the Korean manufacturer’s best smartphones, aimed at less demanding users. Ultimately, however, the success of the model Galaxy S20 FE showed that fans of even more advanced technologies appreciate the quality of the design of this phone (we explained why this is so here – LINK)

So you can easily see that Samsung has less and less room in its portfolio for a device that is neither a flagship nor a budget smartphone. Moreover, the series EF poses a significant threat to the sale of flagship models, the prices of which continue to rise.

Device appearance

The first graphic concepts have already appeared on the web Samsung Galaxy S22 FE. In the potential appearance of the smartphone, the location of the cameras on the back of the device is particularly noteworthy, which resembles the known one from this year Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. The images appeared on the user’s Twitter profile HoiINDI – known for creating renders of pre-release devices.

Galaxy S22 FE it will probably resemble the flagship models of the series Galaxy S22. It should therefore be equipped with a distinctive camera housing and a flat screen without rounded edges. We can also expect plastic on the back of the device. New model in the series Fan Edition It will therefore be an evolution of the design that we know from the main series of Samsung flagships.

We can make some assumptions about the other hardware specs based on the history of the series smartphones. EF and mobile industry leaks.

Release date

The release date of the new model Galaxy S22 FE has not yet been announced. OF leaks shows that the smartphone is in an early stage of work, suggesting we’ll see its debut early next year.

It should be recalled here that Galaxy S21 FE it went on sale just a few months ago, which could further delay the premiere of the next model. At the moment we also know that Samsung has not yet started working on the production of components that would power the device.

It looks like the Galaxy S22 FE won’t be released this year. There is no development firmware found and there is nothing on its access point either. This is a very similar situation back when Galaxy Note didn’t come out.

Everything indicates that the first Samsung Galaxy S22 FE we’ll see early next year. However, there is a shadow of the possibility that the smartphone will be announced later this summer.

According to leaks, the Korean manufacturer is planning an event in August, during which new models will be presented folding headlights and Galaxy Watch 5. The event will most likely take place on August 11, so there is very little time left before it begins.

We hope that the news will also contain the slightest information about the model S22 EFwe wait so much.

Components

Many reports have suggested that Samsung will abandon the systems Snapdragon and Exynos in the new model S22 EFthus switching to the chipset MediaTek. The latest leaks on the Fan Edition series deny these rumors. What else, Yogesh Brar, which is the source of much proven information from the mobile industry, claims that such a change will not happen at all, or at least not in the near future. In the new model Galaxy S22 FE we can therefore expect offers Exynosa and Snapdragon. Maybe Samsung decides to use Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plusto be used in the new OnePlusie 10 Ultra. That seems very likely, especially given how many brands have already announced devices based on new Qualcomm components. These include, among others, Motorola and Xiaomi.

A new set of cameras

About the glasses of the new model Fan Edition we don’t know much. The Korean manufacturer hasn’t shared any information on the specs of the cameras, which is likely due to the early stage of work on the smartphone. However, it can be assumed that Samsung will endeavor to present users with new solutions in this aspect, mainly due to the use of the same lenses in the models S20 FE and S21 EF. Both smartphones, despite the release time between them, used the same camera setup. Its reuse therefore seems out of the question.

Samsung will certainly equip the new FE series model with a solid main camera and an ultra-wide-angle lens. We can also count on a new Softwarethis will allow the full potential of the cameras to be exploited.

Software

Due to the probable first of the model S22 EF only in 2023 can we expect it to work on the latest version of Android. The premiere of the thirteenth installment of the software will take place around the fourth quarter of 2022. Code name of the new Android 13 this Tiramisuand you can read more about it in our article.

Galaxy S22 FE it will also receive the latest version of the manufacturer’s original overlay. At the moment, Samsung’s software is available in the version specified by the number 4however, according to speculation, a new overlay A 5.0 user interface is due to appear on the first smartphones in July this year. This would mean that the Galaxy S22 FE will most likely debut with Android 13 and the One overlay User Interface 5.0.

Price

Based on prices of previous models Galaxy FE at the time of release, we can expect a new S22 EF will debut at a price close to $699 (approximately 3100 PLN) in the United States. However, it should be remembered that S21 EF it was delivered without any accessories except the cable USB-C. Most likely, this will not change, and the new model will also be sold in a set with only a USB cable.

It is also worth paying attention to the rather interesting role currently played by the model Fan Edition in the Samsung portfolio. On the one hand, it is not a flagship and costs less than the Galaxy S series models, and on the other hand, it has all their most important features. Many users have probably given up buying more expensive devices from the Korean manufacturer in favor of a cheaper alternative. Samsung is certainly aware of this situation, but we don’t know how it will affect the final price of the smartphone.

All the above information is subject to change and we will keep you informed. The article will be updated with the latest leaks and information on the first of the new smartphones in the range Galaxy FE.
