Samsung has taken the charge of making foldable smartphones mainstream and has already launched several models in the market. The latest devices from the South Korean giant with foldable screens include the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3.
Now, an upcoming foldable smartphone from Samsung, dubbed as Samsung W22 5G which is exclusive for the Chinese market, has leaked online. As the name indicates, the phone will be unveiled as a successor to the Samsung W21 5G launched last year.
The Samsung W22 5G is said to be based on the Galaxy Z Fold3 smartphone but the device is expected to come with a slightly modified design or even different dimensions. Its predecessor, the W21 5G also had a bit different design compared to the Galaxy Z Fold2.
From the leaked image, it’s evident that the upcoming China-exclusive foldable smartphone from Samsung features an under-display camera (UDC) technology and new wallpaper. As of now, nothing much is known about this new product. It is also not known if the device will come with support for the S-Pen stylus.
The Samsung W21 5G launched in China last year was priced 50 percent more than the international version of Galaxy Z Fold 2, so there’s a possibility that the upcoming W22 5G could be priced a lot more than the Galaxy Z Fold3 smartphone.
Given that the phone’s image has already leaked online, we expect to get more details about the Samsung W22 5G in the coming days or weeks as well as the phone’s pricing and availability details. If we are to speculate, then we expect the smartphone to go official by the end of this year.
