Many reports have stated that Samsung has already started work on the next-generation Galaxy S-series devices – Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22 Plus, and Galaxy S22 Ultra. And the reports can be partly believed considering that Samsung has cultivated the habit of unveiling new smartphones at the beginning of the year.

Meanwhile, the reports further mentioned that the South Korean tech giant would probably launch the Samsung S-series smartphones in February instead of January.

Surprisingly, the color options of the upcoming Samsung S-series have surfaced online. And it appears that the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22 Plus smartphones will arrive in five color variants: White, Pink, Black, Green, and Gold, and the Galaxy S22 Ultra will debut in Black, White, Green, and Dark Red.

Remember that Samsung will make the various color options of the Galaxy S22 series available in all regions, but some color hues may be exclusive to specific locations. And there’s no news yet on the region exclusive color options of the next-gen Galaxy S-series.

Regarding production, a recent prediction by Ross Young says that Samsung will begin mass production of the Galaxy S22 series in the first week of December. If the forecast is accurate, Samsung will need more time to produce enough smartphones in the upcoming series.

The late production seems to justify the need for Samsung to postpone the launch time frame from the usual January to February. The mass production of the present Galaxy S21 series began in late October 2020, which is probably why the company was able to meet up with the January launch window.

After a while in the dark, Huawei is planning to make a resounding comeback in the flagship smartphone category by announcing the Huawei Mate 50 series smartphones.

Meanwhile, reports show that the Chinese smartphone maker plans to take the covers off the handset in the first quarter of 2022. Unfortunately, the company is keeping a tight lip regarding the launch details of the upcoming Huawei Mate 50 series. But we know it will debut within the first three months of 2022.

Going by previous speculations, the Mate 50 series would arrive in March 2022. But since Huawei is yet to confirm the launch details of the series, it would be best if you took the information with a grain of salt.

Recall, Huawei slated the Mate 50 series to launch this year. But following the arrival of the Huawei P50 lineup in July – which came later than the speculated time – Huawei postponed the launch of the next-generation smartphone lineup.

Speculations say that the smartphones in the Mate 50 series would carry the Snapdragon 898 SoC. Unlike the processor in other smartphones, the Huawei Mate 50 series’ SoC will only support 4G connectivity.

The Huawei Mate 50 series may debut with LTPO displays – the same display technology on the recently released iPhone 13 series. And this means that the Mate 50 handsets may support adaptive refresh rates and a high refresh rate.
