Samsung‘s next flagship smartphone is expected to be the Galaxy S22 which won’t hit the shelves until next year. However, the rumor mills have consistently been inundated with leaks concerning the Galaxy S21. The latest rumor comes from South Korea and alleges that the next-gen flagship will likely come without an under-display camera. 
The present Galaxy S21 features a high-quality camera setup but the Galaxy S22 is tipped to come with some vital camera improvements. One such feature is a sensor-shift stabilization system as well as a continuous zoom periscope camera module. There were also rumors that the device will come with an under-display selfie camera. Going by this latest report from South Korea, that may not happen.
The report indicates that the Korean tech giant has decided against utilizing the under-display camera system on the Galaxy S22 series. The report hinted that the image quality of the UD camera is unsatisfactory to Samsung. In addition, the product yield is still very low and won’t be able to meet up the requirements for millions of Galaxy S22 production units which will debut last year.
In essence, the company is still working on improving the camera quality as well as the yield rate. The under-display camera is expected to debut on the Galaxy Note series in H2 2022.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 has earlier been tipped to come with a primary camera co-engineered with Olympus. The camera will also have a sensor-shift stabilization system and a continuous zoom periscope camera. The flagship will be powered by an Exynos 2200 processor in some markets as well as Qualcomm Snapdragon 895 in other markets.
