Samsung will be taking the wraps off the Galaxy S22 series on February 9. We are only two days away from the launch and leaks are not stopping since they began a few months back. The latest report on smartphones reveals their pricing and availability details for the company’s home market.
According to a report by ETNews (via SamMobile), the pre-registrations for the Galaxy S22 lineup in South Korea will start from February 14. Further, Samsung will accept pre-orders from February 21. Finally, the company will begin shipping to customers from February 25.
As far as price is concerned, the report says that Samsung has decided to retain the pricing of the Galaxy S21 series for the Galaxy S22 family in its home country despite an increase in manufacturing costs due to supply shortages. The firm has allocated around 700,000 to 800,000 units and aims to continue its market dominance without delaying the launch as well as increasing the price.
This means the base 128GB variant of the Galaxy S22 and the Galaxy S22+ will start at ₩999,900 and ₩1199,000 respectively. These devices will be also offered in a 256GB version but the price for that is not mentioned in the report.
Lastly, the Galaxy S22 Ultra with built-in S Pen is said to retail at ₩1452,000 and ₩1599,400 for the 256GB and the 512GB memory configurations respectively. The handset will be also offered in a 1TB storage variant at an undisclosed price tag.
