Samsung Galaxy A22 has silently debuted in India via the company's own, just days after it allegedly went on sale in India via offline stores. The new Samsung phone comes with quad rear cameras and a waterdrop-style display notch. The Samsung Galaxy A22 also features a 90Hz AMOLED display and offers 15W fast charging. The smartphone first arrived in Europe earlier this month, alongside the Galaxy A22 5G. It also comes as the successor to the Galaxy A21 that was launched in the US in April last year.
