A few days ago, one source with a good track record of scoops from the Korean electronics industry supply chain – Lanzuk – tipped that Samsung is working on making its Galaxies truly “all-screen” by shaving off the bezel even more than what we have on the Galaxy S21 series, whose bottom bezel is vanishingly thin already.

The big changes come at the front, say his “domestic related parts makers” source, where the “front bezel becomes thinner without discriminating model series” indeed. That’s the third time we are hearing that Samsung will be trimming the bezel, so there might be something to it.
- Galaxy S22 display, size, and battery specs: 6.1″ display, 7.6mm thickness, 3700mAh battery
- Galaxy S22 display, size, and battery specs: 6.5″ display, 7.6mm thickness, 4500mAh battery
This is an overall reduction in numbers across the board – a slightly shorter display diagonal, thinner body (the S21 and S21+ are ~7.9mm), and a tad smaller batteries to fit the new dimensions with what the insiders say is the same weight as the S21 series. Don’t let the smaller display diagonal fool you, as, thanks to the phones’ widening and the slimmer bezels, they will have better screen-to-body ratio than their predecessors.
Last but not least, there will apparently be two new Galaxy S22 colors besides the shades that the S21 ships in, but it is not exactly clear if these will again be exclusives for those who order the phones from Samsung’s own store site.
When we combine all the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra rumors, the new handsets are shaping up to be enough of an upgrade to make the main upgrade target market – S20 model owners – to make the jump.
