Samsung Galaxy A22/F22 completes various certifications, launch just around the corner
Samsung is preparing to unveil its next-generation foldable smartphones – Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 in near future. At the same time, the company is also working to expand its mid-range and budget device segment by releasing new low-end price phones.
In a recent development, two new Samsung devices (unreleased) completed two necessary certifications that indicate their launch just around the corner. The Galaxy A22 and Galaxy F22 are the upcoming budget smartphones from the OEM.
Firstly, the Bluetooth SIG certification authority approved the Galaxy A22 and Galaxy F22, however, both of these devices seem to share several similarities. The website revealed that these devices are equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 technology.
On the other hand, the Galaxy A22 4G and Galaxy A22 5G, both variants passed the NBTC certification, which is a sign of their imminent launch. It’s worth mentioning that Samsung had already announced the Galaxy A22 4G/A22 5G as its yet another budget lineup, and one of them is the cheapest 5G phone from the brand.

Samsung Galaxy A22 sports a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED Infinity-U display with HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate, quite identical to the premium Galaxies. On the back, it features a quad-camera setup including a 48MP primary camera, with OIS and autofocus, plus an 8MP ultrawide sensor (F2.2), a 2MP macro camera (F2.4), and a 2MP depth sensor (F2.4). On the front, it has a 13MP selfie camera with an F2.2 aperture.
Moreover, it comes with the last year’s Android 11 OS and Samsung One UI 3.1 software system, which makes it eligible for upgrades up to Android 13 (most probably the One UI 5.x). Powered by an octa-core MediaTek Helio G80 processor, it will be available in three memory options: 4GB/64GB, 4GB/128GB, and 6GB/128GB.
Aside from this, the Galaxy A22 also brings Dolby Atmos audio for earphones and Bluetooth devices that’s nice for playing content. Additional features include a side-mounted fingerprint reader, expandable memory up to 1TB via microSD card, 5000mAh battery with 15W fast charging, LTE, GPS, Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC, USB Type-C port, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Google launched the Pixel 9 series earlier than the usual Pixel flagship launch timeline. The Android 16 is also reportedly coming earlier than we’d expect, and the latest report says Google could launch Pixel 9a in the first quarter of the next year.
According to AndroidHeadlines, Google Pixel 9a could be announced by mid-March 2025. Multiple sources citing the outlet confirmed that the next affordable Pixel will go on sale before the end of March 2025.
It seems Google is preparing to bring its Galaxy S24 FE rival around the 2025 iPhone SE debut. Samsung has recently launched the new FE smartphone, while Apple is said to announce the next-generation iPhone SE early next year.
Recently, the CAD renders of Pixel 9a smartphone have been revealed. The images showcased Google’s design decisions. The next A series Pixel could not get bumped camera bar shown in the Pixel 9 series flagships.
Pixel 9 Pro XL reportedly sends private user data to Google servers every 15 minutes. A security researcher at Cybernews discovered that the phone frequently transmits sensitive user data, such as email addresses, phone numbers, and locations.
The discovery sparked a privacy fear as private data is being sent to Google through the Pixel 9 Pro XL. The smartphone sometimes transmits sensitive user data to Google servers even before any apps are installed.
The report also states that the Pixel 9 Pro XL has remote management capabilities, which operate without user consent or awareness. It seems there’s a severe security flaw within the Pixel 9 Pro XL’s operating system.
The phone communicates with services like Google Photos’ Face Grouping without user interaction, raising further privacy concerns. The native Calculator is also suspicious as it could leak calculation history to unauthorized users under certain conditions.
“The amount of data transmitted and the potential for remote management casts doubt on who truly owns the device. Users may have paid for it, but the deep integration of surveillance systems in the ecosystem may leave users vulnerable to privacy violations,” Nazarovas said.
It looks like the AI integration has made some major security flaws across the OS. Google packed the new Pixel phones with advanced security features. The research only discusses potential threats, with data leak isn’t such a general task.
Interestingly, Cybernews researchers employed a “man-in-the-middle” approach to capture and analyze this traffic but noted limitations due to the rooting process. As AI is making our lives easier, it is putting the data at threat at the same time.
Samsung has recently launched its new premium Galaxy S series tablets, the Galaxy Tab S10+ and Tab S10 Ultra. These Galaxy Tab S10 tablets come with some stunning wallpapers that are now available for download.
