Samsung is expected to introduce the much-anticipated Galaxy S22 series in early 2022. We have seen multiple rumors and leaks regarding the upcoming flagship series and we now have a fresh report that could prove good news for users in India. The latest information suggests that the 2022 Galaxy S22 phones will be powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset in the country instead of the Exynos SoC.
The information comes from popular leakster Tron on Twitter. If this happens, it would be a totally different move on part of Samsung. For those who don’t know, the company introduces the Galaxy S-series phones (even the possibly dead Galaxy Note series) with two processor variants: a Qualcomm Snapdragon variant and an Exynos one. Both variants are selectively available in various markets.

Another leak suggests that the Galaxy S22 Ultra (which will be a part of the series) will launch on February 8. The latest launch date rumor corroborates previous leaks about the release timeline. While there’s no mention of the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22+, we can expect three phones to launch at the same time.
