Exynos 2200, delay and alleged problems: Samsung intervenes
Exynos 2200, delay and alleged problems
Samsung Exynos 2200 missed an appointment. Samsung's new flagship processor was due to be unveiled yesterday, January 11, but the chipset was not announced. In the last few hours, the company has confirmed that the launch of the new Exynos has been deliberately postponed, but the reason for this was not immediately clear.Now, to the Korean media, a spokesperson for Samsung Electronics has stated that there is a specific reason why the Exynos 2200 will be out "in a while". The delay, in short, is justified: "We are planning to unveil the new processor at the time of the launch of a new Samsung smartphone", the statements read.
In the face of the non-presentation of yesterday, many had speculated that the Exynos 2200 was giving problems or was not yet ready for the final launch. Apparently this is not the case: “There are no problems with the production and performance of the AP,” the official states in plain language.

Is ( ": visible")) {console.log ("Edinet ADV adding zone: tag crm_srl-th_mobilelabs_d_mh2_1 slot id: th_mobilelabs_d_mh2"); } However, the Exynos 2200 may not be the SoC installed inside the Samsung Galaxy S22 (or even the S22 + and S22 Ultra). This can be deduced from the fact that Samsung has always unveiled its high-end chipsets about a month earlier than the launch of the new flagship smartphone series. In this case, Samsung Galaxy S22 and Exynos 2200 could be presented together, but it is also true that such a thing has never happened until now.
Ultimately, Exynos 2200 may not be the processor used by S22 series smartphones. Just yesterday, a leaker confirmed that all variants of the Samsung Galaxy S22 will include the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset worldwide. On this topic, Samsung does not seem willing to put too much balance. According to the usual well-informed, however, it seems that Exynos 2200 will be implemented in the new leaflets which are expected to be released by the end of the year.

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra could fall behind iPhone 13 Pro in one key area
Edit 12/20: While this isn't great news for the S22, the Ultra model may be getting a new detail enhancement feature for its main camera.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 rumors are piling up as we approach the phone's expected launch in early 2022, but the latest one might not be good news on the storage front.
That's according to a retailer leak from the tipster @_snoopytech_, at least, who shared alleged listings which show the basic Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus (or perhaps Pro) featuring either 128- or 256GB onboard storage. The Note-like Galaxy S22 Ultra — which could actually be called the Galaxy S22 Note, according to a new rumor — will reportedly come with either 128, 256 or 512GB of internal storage.
If true, that puts Samsung in the unusual position of being behind Apple. For reference, you can buy any iPhone 13 handset with 128, 256 or 512GB, and if you buy an iPhone 13 Pro, you can up that to 1TB.
So, advantage Apple? Well, maybe. But it’s worth noting that Samsung pioneered these mass-capacity options years ago, offering both the Galaxy S10 Plus and Galaxy Note 10 Plus with 1TB of internal storage. For whatever reason, the following year both the Galaxy S10 Plus and Galaxy Note 10 Plus maxed out at 512GB again, so it’s certainly possible that Samsung’s sales data told them that nobody wanted that much internal storage, and it wasn’t worth pursuing. We’ll have a better idea of whether that’s true if Apple abandons the 1TB option with the iPhone 14.
But it’s also worth remembering that both of Samsung’s 1TB experiments also included a microSD slot for expanding storage. Rumor has it that the S22 family won’t, which could make bigger storage models a necessity for some, rather than just a nice option.
Elsewhere, @_snoopytech_’s leak also claims to have revealed the S22 range's color options. The S22 and S22 Plus will reportedly come in pink gold, green, black or white — though we’d expect some more poetic naming, given Samsung’s penchant for flowery branding with names such as “mystic bronze.” The S22 Ultra, meanwhile, will apparently come in dark red, black or white hues.
While the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus/Pro are supposed to be barely distinguishable from the S21 in terms of looks, the S22 Ultra will apparently be a Galaxy Note 22 in all but name, right down to the larger curved display and built-in S Pen.
All three handsets are set to be extremely powerful, either featuring the freshly announced Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip or the extremely exciting Samsung Exynos 2200, depending on your region. They’re expected to arrive in February 2022, a month after the perpetually delayed Galaxy S21 FE.
