Samsung Expected to Decrease the Size of the S22 Panels Compared to the S21
 
According to multiple sources, the next-gen Galaxy S series smartphones will have a smaller display than the current-gen models. They are tipped to arrive with the following sized screens.
·                Galaxy S22: 6.06-6.1-inch
·                Galaxy S22+: 6.55 – 6.66-inch
·                Galaxy S22 Ultra: 6.80 – 6.81-inch
 
The Galaxy S22 series will have a smaller display than S21 Series, which comes with 6.2-inch and 6.7-inch displays. The Galaxy S22 Ultra is reported to feature the same 6.8-inch display as the Galaxy S21 Ultra and an LTPO backplane. The screen resolution on these phones is expected to be like the S21 Series. The Ultra should have a WQHD+ display, whereas the Plus and the vanilla models will sport FHD+ panels.
 
Earlier this year, Samsung switched to a polycarbonate (plastic) rear panel on the Galaxy S series with the Galaxy S21. As per a new rumor, the same material could also make its way to the Plus model (Galaxy S22+) next year. However, the Ultra variant (Galaxy S22 Ultra) will retain the glass back panel.

​Samsung has been experimenting with plastic back on its smartphones for years. The company introduced the so-called plastic panel on the Galaxy A series. This glossy polycarbonate back feels cheap as it not only attracts smudges but also scratches. Then, the firm debuted the Galaxy Note20 with a matte polycarbonate rear finish. The same material later made its way to the Galaxy S20 FE and the Galaxy S21. Even the mid-range Galaxy A52 and Galaxy A72 use a similar finish but of lower quality. Samsung is rumored (via @FrontTron) to use polycarbonate back on both the Galaxy S22 and the Galaxy S22+ in 2022. If it happens to be true, then the Galaxy S22 Ultra will be the only device in the Galaxy S22 series with a rear glass panel.
