Samsung’s experiment failure to bring back the Galaxy Note phones next year
Following its habit, Samsung launched its new Galaxy S series smartphones earlier this year, but later on, confirmed that it will not ship new Galaxy Notes this summer due to the ongoing chip shortage and supply imbalance. However, there’s still hope for new Note phones next year as the company official said previously.
However, multiple rumors suggested that the iconic Galaxy Note series would be discontinued forever, and the company will bring the foldables into its mainstream due to the rising era of folding screen smartphones. Meanwhile, a set of new rumors surfaced online with interesting info that every Note fan should need to know!
Samsung’s experiment failure could bring back the Galaxy Note phones
According to tipsters, Samsung just hoped that the Galaxy Note fans will simply purchase the Galaxy S21 Ultra as it comes with S Pen support, but as an additional accessory. However, the sales of the Galaxy S21 Ultra and S Pen are extremely low that didn’t meet the expectations of the company. Therefore, it’s expected that the Galaxy Note line will come back next year along with multiple innovations.
What could be the name – Galaxy Note 21 or Note 22?
As of now, there’s no information available regarding the existence of the next-gen Galaxy Note series and it’s early to say anything about the name of upcoming Notes. Well, Samsung is preparing to launch the Galaxy Z Flip 3 this summer, by skipping the Galaxy Z Flip 2 last year, so the next Note phones could also be called Galaxy Note 22.
Galaxy Note 22 series could feature Exynos 2200 with AMD GPU
Today, AMD CEO confirmed at the Computex 2021 event that Samsung’s upcoming high-end CPU will feature AMD RDNA2 graphics. At the same time, the company announced that Samsung will make some important announcements on this processor later this year.
It’s assumed that the Exynos 2200 could succeed the Exynos 2100 processor that will launch just before the Unpacked event for the next year’s Galaxy S22 series. Moreover, it could also debut with the Galaxy Note 22 smartphones, which could launch in Q3 2022.
Galaxy Note 22 with Under Panel Camera
Invisible selfie camera, a long-awaited display technology that offers a full view experience by hiding the selfie camera when it not in use. Last month, Samsung introduced different types of innovative displays in which it had unveiled a new laptop OLED without having a hole for the webcam and named it as Under Panel Camera.
However, Samsung purchases smartphone OLEDs from its subsidiary Samsung Display, we can expect that the UPC tech could soon be applied on smartphones after Galaxy Books. It’s worth mentioning that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 also rumored to feature an invisible selfie camera display, launching this summer.

After One UI 5.1, we started hearing a lot of news, leaks, and rumors about the upcoming One UI 6. Recently, Samsung has also started releasing One UI 6.0 support for stock apps, starting with the Calculator app.
Looking at all this, we can expect that Samsung will provide this support to more apps in the future too. But the question is, why is Samsung providing One UI 6.0 support to its stocks apps before the official release? If you are thinking that by getting their support, you will get some new features in your apps, then it is not only the reason.
Samsung One UI 6.0 support can also bring new features for apps, but the main reason for this is something else. But what? The answer is that Samsung is going to release a new One UI update in the coming weeks or months and the company aims to make its stock apps compatible with that accordingly. Once the app is supported, the app will not stop working or get crash whenever the company releases that update for the smartphone.
A recent report revealed that Samsung’s stable Android 14 update will be available in October. This is the same time frame as last year’s UI rollout, with the latest Galaxy S lineup being the first to secure it. Meanwhile, beta activity is seeing an early start if everything goes as planned by the internals.
Still, for the time being, we can consider this information as a pinch of salt as the company has not yet announced any official timeline for One UI 6.0.
Samsung confirms One UI 6 and Good Lock features finding underway
Nowadays, smartphones are being heavily used for gaming and photography. Accordingly, phone makers are focussing more and more on upgrading the imaging capabilities and performance of chipsets. So why not, Samsung should now bring battery upgrade to Galaxy flagships.
Battery upgrade should be the next aim
The recently launched Galaxy S23 Ultra brings a high-profile 200-megapixel camera, allowing users to capture lossless shots, even when cropped. With great collaboration between hardware and software, the new Samsung flagships offer peace of mind to consumers, when it comes to battery life.
In addition to camera lovers, people prefer buying a smartphone, which offers great battery life without compromising features and power specifications. In the same way, Samsung is reportedly working, and there’s still room for improvements in flagships battery life.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra could come with a new battery technology inspired by electronic vehicles. The company is considering stacked battery technology for smartphones, which will reduce the size keeping the same mAh and enhanced lifespan.
Since the stacked battery tech could leave more gap inside the phone, Samsung might not think about increasing mAh on flagship phones. Instead, the company may use an additional vacant area for upgrading other hardware elements and better placement.
The S23 Ultra even defeated the years-old leader iPhone in terms of battery performance, thanks to the “Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy” processor. Exynos 2400 is reportedly coming to the S24 series in certain markets, which re-creates concern about the phone’s battery life and performance.
That said, Samsung should focus on increasing premium Galaxy phones’ battery life so users can use them longer with a single charge. 45W fast charging is doing quite well, just improvements to battery life would prove as cherry on the cake.

Tech industry is currently facing a global downturn, forcing companies to shut down businesses in hopeless markets. Promotion no longer remains the only way to sell more smartphones as consumers start comparing products on different aspects; reliability, security and software support.
Samsung, unquestionably meets the demands of consumers, thanks to its 4+5 strategy, ensuring longer Android OS and security updates support. The company is the biggest Android seller in the world, and of course leads the market too, beating rivals like Apple.
Since the Samsung 4+5 strategy still lags behind Apple, when it comes to software support, it is record-breaking in the Android segment. As vendors stop including pre-built charging adapters to reduce e-waste, the EU also mandated longer software support so consumers can keep using a phone longer.
“At Samsung, you get not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 times Android OS updates. And 5 years is a long time, so your palm-sized pal will be in good hands with new regular security patches.”
Software updates play a key role in continuing great smartphone experiences, as well as the releases come with new features and optimization. Android is open source and gets packed with numerous flaws, Google patches them through security releases every month.
Accordingly, Samsung rolls out monthly patches to a large number of Galaxy devices, which ensures the most reliable system and user data protection. Android OS usually gets a new version in the second half of every year, bringing new useful features and life-saving tools to consumers.
Samsung, with its amazing One UI, dominated the Android market. The custom skin is neat, clean, and intuitive, ensuring smoother and more stunning experiences on Galaxy smartphones and tablets. Google introduces 1 each year, but Samsung utilizes it thrice (x.0/x.1/x.1.1), cool enough?
Until the second half of 2020, Samsung supplied two OS updates to all Galaxy devices. Later, the company raised the bar of software and reached up to 3, matching the Android maker. With the S22 launch, the Korean tech giant promised to bring up to 4 OS and 5 years of patches to select Galaxy models.
