Samsung doesn’t like to talk about chipsets, but it’s pretty clear that this model is powered by the Dimensity 700. It starts with 4GB of RAM and 64GB storage, which allows it to hit that € 230 price target. There is also a model with 128 GB storage, that one can have 4GB, 6GB or 8GB of RAM. The 4/128GB option starts at € 250. Note that different countries will get different models, e.g. the Netherlands gets the cheaper 4/64GB, while neighbor Belgium gets the pricier 4/128GB version.
€ 20 for an extra 64GB sounds reasonable, but the A22 5G has a microSD slot (unlike the A22 4G), so it’s okay to get the smaller option. The 5G model gets the better screen too (in contrast with the A32 pair). Well, better if you don’t insist on an AMOLED panel. What you get is a 6.6” LCD with 1080p+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. However, the 5G model doesn’t do so well in the camera department.
The triple cam on the rear is home to a 48MP main module (no OIS) and a 5MP ultra wide-angle module (plus a depth sensor). The 8MP selfie camera is in a V-shaped notch on the front. Both phones have 5,000mAh batteries and both support 15W fast charging. Also, both have side-mounted fingerprint readers.
Again, the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G will be available in select regions starting in July at € 230 (or slightly more if the 64 GB version is not available). You can pick between four colorways: Gray, White, Mint, and Violet.
