Galaxy A22 5G specs and features
The A22 5G has a 6.6-inch 1080p TFT display with an Infinity-V waterdrop-style notch and 90Hz refresh rate. Under the hood, it has a 7nm MediaTek Dimensity 700 system-on-chip paired with up to 8GB RAM and up to 128GB storage. This is expandable by up to 1TB.

Samsung is touting two key highlights of the A22 5G. One is that it supports as many as 11 5G bands. Secondly, the phone comes with a guarantee of two major Android OS updates (as well as two years of security updates). This seemingly makes the A22 5G a future-proof device.
