The Samsung Galaxy S22 aims to hold Samsung's spot near the top of our Best Android Phones list, and the Galaxy S22 Ultra in particular sounds like the phone to get based on current rumors new leaks about the S22 Ultra gives us new reasons to expect that particular model
According to Samsung leaker Zaryab Khan, the Galaxy S22 Ultra will have a significantly upgraded S Pen, which will be no better than the Apple Pencil on the 2021 iPad Pro xda-developers As spotted by Khan, posted a new video that gives some potential insight into what Samsung is preparing when the S22 lineup launches early this year
Khan claims that the S22 Ultra's S Pen will have an unprecedented low latency of just 28ms Incidentally, the latency of the superior Apple Pencil is reported to be 9ms Compared to the 9ms latency also found on the Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra, this is a significant generational advancement for the S22 Ultra
In addition to latency, Kahn also reports that the Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature 12-bit HDR photography This will allow for vibrant colors when images are displayed on a proper HDR 12 display
Often a bright display is needed to push the colors that HDR 12 requires, and given that the S22 Ultra is also said to have a tremendously bright screen of 1,750 nits, it makes sense for Samsung to combine these two features Khan also predicts that the S22 Plus will have an ultra-bright display as well, which was reported by SamMobile in December
According to Khan, these AMOLED screens will offer 100% of the CDI-P3 color gamut
Given that the Galaxy S22 Ultra will likely retain the 108MP camera from last year's Galaxy S21 Ultra, combined with HDR 12 photography, images could be significantly improved By comparison, the iPhone 13 Pro, which features 10-bit photo capture, could give Samsung a significant advantage in the smartphone camera wars Samsung may finally overtake Apple on our best camera phone list
In any case, these rumors are tough to untangle But if these rumors turn out to be accurate, we are looking at a solid kit from Samsung At this point, the Galaxy S22 line is rumored to be announced sometime in February
