Samsung Galaxy F22 budget phone arrives in India: Sub-15,000 price and more exciting features

Samsung has finally launched yet another affordable phone in India. This time, it is a member of its Galaxy F series and is called the Galaxy F22, which has been rumoured for a while now.

The Galaxy F22 is a new budget phone that falls under Rs 15,000 as expected previously. With this, it competes with the likes of the Realme 8 5G, the Realme Narzo 30 5G, the Poco M3 Pro 5G, and even the Galaxy M32 that was launched recently. Here’s a look at all the details on the smartphone.

Samsung Galaxy F22 features, specs

As revealed previously, the new Samsung phone comes with a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED HD+ screen. You will find the old waterdrop notch. While the HD+ screen resolution could be disappointing, the 90Hz refresh rate can be liked by many.

The phone is powered by a MediaTek Helio G80 chip, which is also seen on the recently launched Galaxy A22. People will get to choose from two RAM/Storage options: 4GB/64GB and 6GB/128GB.

The camera department is home to four rear snappers placed in a square-shaped camera bump. There’s a 48-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, a 2-megapixel macro camera, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. Pretty much what we have seen on the Galaxy A22 too. The front camera stands at 13-megapixel. The device comes with various camera features such as the Portrait mode, Night mode, and more.
