Samsung Galaxy S22 will go back to the design of smaller size

Samsung may have your back if you hate the trend toward ever-larger phones. According to news, it has claimed the Galaxy S22 line will shrink in size across most models.

The display screen on the base Galaxy S22 would reportedly drop from the S21’s 6.2-inch size to a more manageable 6.06 inches. The S22 Plus, meanwhile, would dip from 6.7 inches to 6.55 inches. Only the Ultra model would remain constant at about 6.8 inches.

You would still have to settle for a larger size if you want a Galaxy S22 with an LTPO display, though. Mauri’s source claims the Ultra would once again be the only model with an LTPO screen, making it the better pick if you want less of a battery hit from high refresh rates or always-on display functions.

This will be the slightly unusual step for Samsung, which is legendary for increasing the dimensions with each generation.

The original Galaxy Note was defined by the then-huge 5.3-inch screen, for instance. However, it’s no secret that phone makers are pushing the limits of the human hand.

A smaller Galaxy S22 size range might be an acknowledgment that some phones are simply too big, and that fans might sometimes prefer ergonomics over a vast visual canvas.
