Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S22 series and Galaxy Tab S8 series together with its Unpacked event last week. This was followed by ‘pre-reservations‘ in India where users could reserve the S22 series by paying Rs 1,999. But while Samsung is yet to announce actual pre-order/sales dates, a reliable tipster has shared the expected delivery dates for the flagship Galaxy devices in the country.
Ishan Agarwal through a tweet revealed that he expects some of the Galaxy S22 series and Tab S8 series pre-orders in India to be delivered starting March 7. This appears to be limited to early birds though, and the vast majority of buyers should only get the devices starting March 11, which is the official date for most regions.

Depends on how early you preorder! Most of the units will still arrive starting March 11th, which is the official date for most regions.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 family in India will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 instead of the Exynos 2200, which most will appreciate. After all, Exynos variants have historically been slower, ran hotter, and consumed battery faster.
Samsung had earlier today revealed the pricing for the entire flagship phone lineup and it starts from Rs 72,999 for the 8GB + 128GB variant of the Galaxy S22.
But the pricing for the Galaxy Tab S8 series is yet to be announced. From it, the most premium model — Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra — has received some significant upgrades over its predecessor, sporting a much larger display and massively improved cameras.
