A new leak reveals the arrival of Galaxy S22 FE
The South Korean tech manufacturer Samsung usually announces a fan edition for its flagships- Galaxy S series and Galaxy Tab S series. We have got a fan edition device for the Galaxy S21 series, but for the Galaxy S22, the FE device hasn’t been introduced yet. In this regard, so far, we have known through multiple reports that the Galaxy S22 series is not lined up to receive the fan edition model. But finally, we have found a clue regarding the Galaxy S22 FE device through a known leaker that it also exists in the tech world. Now let’s take a brief look at the information revealed by the leaker.
Let us tell you, a well-known tipster Connor has recently tweeted on their Twitter account regarding the Galaxy S22 FE and Galaxy Buds 2’s arrival. They wrote “coming soon” for those devices mentioned above. Another tipster Dohyum Kim also agreed with this report and retweeted the same tweet, and they even suggested that there will be no FE device for the upcoming Galaxy S23 series. As per another tipster RGcloudS report, the Galaxy S22 FE will be launched in the second part of the unpacked event, which is going to be held for the Galaxy S23 series, most probably on February 1st, 2022.
For information, along with the Galaxy S22 FE, the Galaxy Tab S8 FE and some other products will also be launched in the same event. It is assumed that we can get to see their launch after the Galaxy S23’s official launch. However, some tipsters also believe that the Company will launch the Galaxy S22 FE device instead of the Galaxy A74 because Samsung is said to be working on various A series devices such as Galaxy A14, A24, A34, and A54, but we haven’t got any information regarding the A74 model so far. Consequently, it is assumed that it may have been replaced with the Galaxy S22 FE.
Coming to the specifications of the Galaxy S22 FE device, it is expected to be powered by the Exynos 2300 SoC, as the leaks revealed. The device may feature the Samsung ISOCEL HM6 108-megapixel primary camera in it. As it is a fan edition device, it will cost less than its base series. According to some reports, it will cost the same as the Galaxy A73 device, which was announced earlier this year with a total cost of 499 USD. However, all this information has not been confirmed by the Company’s side, but we are expecting an official confirmation soon.
Samsung Galaxy devices come with numerous customizable applications that offer a multitude of options, enabling users to easily customize the UI elements and participate in the Galaxy ecosystem. Among the many modules available, the Lockstar module offers the ability to customize the lock screen.
With the lockstar module, users get some additional options to customize the lock screen and AOD of the Galaxy smartphone and tablet. Unfortunately, it doesn’t provide the AOD-related customization feature for the Galaxy S24 yet, but now there is good news for the users as the company has confirmed to provide some additional settings for managing the Always on Display screen.
According to the information, some Galaxy S24 users in Korea have made numerous complaints and demanded some customizability of AOD through Lockstar. However, it is unclear if these changes will be implemented through the next application update or in a different way. However, the Good Lock support team has confirmed that they are actively working on this issue.
If we talk about the AOD customization option available on other devices, you can change the color and style of the clock and other elements, and you can also manage the brightness of the AOD manually.

Notably, the lavender/purple color, which has been a staple on the Z Flips, is missing. Jumping on the Galaxy Z Fold 6, so the color options are still similar as previously reported. But here’s the catchable fact: Dark Blue will be marketed as Navy and Silver as Silver Shadow. A new light pink has also appeared, along with low-volume colors like black and white.
