Leaked Galaxy S22 Ultra renders show why Samsung is likely killing the Galaxy Note

Months ahead of its launch renders of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra have been leaked. Only yesterday did we hear that theS22 Ultra would seemingly be a spiritual successor to the Galaxy Note series, and that certainly appears to be the case.  Samsung has not released a “Galaxy Note 21” yet even though a refresh is due, and a lot of customers are awaiting a true Galaxy Note. In fact, the future of the Note series has been up in the air for quite a long time now. Not only does the S22 Ultra somewhat look like a Galaxy Note successor (and could easily be mistaken for one), but the leaked renders even show an S-Pen holder.

These leaked renders come courtesy of OnLeaks in collaboration with Digit. The design is incredibly reminiscent of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra — from the front-facing centered hole punch to the curved glass on the front and the flat top and bottom. The back camera housing is uniquely shaped like a P with quad cameras, and it appears that the bottom camera is a periscope telephoto lens. It has been reported separately by Ice Universe that the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra will feature a 5,000 mAh battery.

Digit reports that the Galaxy S22 Ultra measures roughly 163.2 x 77.9 x 8.9mm with a thickness of 10.5mm when the camera bump is included. The Galaxy S22 Ultra also reportedly has a 6.8-inch display that is likely a high-resolution AMOLED panel with a high refresh rate. We’ve heard that the regular Galaxy S22 will come in somewhere around 6.06-inches, making the Galaxy S22 Ultra a significantly larger smartphone than that.

Keep in mind that we’re still quite a while away from the Galaxy S22 series launch. Hardware plans do get locked down by this time. But if the Apple Watch 7 saga has taught us anything is that leaks are still leaks, and you should treat them as such. Nothing is official until it is official. But we’re excited to see what Samsung has in store for us with the Galaxy S22 Ultra after a successful flagship and foldable release.
