Samsung Galaxy A22 5G gets priced in Europe, launch is imminment


Samsung revolutionized its smartphone business with the arrival of the Galaxy A and M series in 2019. The company further consolidated its name as one of the strongest brands in the mid-range department last year even knocking Xiaomi out of the throne in India. This year, Samsung wants to give bold steps in the segment by bringing 5G to its low-end and mid-range departments. The company already unveiled a couple of mid-range smartphones with 5G such as the Galaxy A52 5G, A72 5G, and M42 / A42 5G. Now, the company is moving forward to bring one of its cheapest ever 5G smartphones – The Galaxy A22 5G.

According to rumors, the Galaxy A22 5G will not go official before June, while some reports were even suggesting it for July. The fact is that the device has been leaking a lot lately. This seems to be a standard for Samsung smartphones nowadays since the Galaxy A52 and A72 also leaked for months prior to their release in March. The latest advancement regarding the Galaxy A22 5G has to do with its retail price in Europe.
