Samsung Galaxy A22 renders show Pixel-like camera
- The Samsung Galaxy A22’s renderers just leaked from a reliable source.
- The phone has a camera module that looks a lot like the one on the back of Google Pixel phones.
- The Galaxy A22 will likely be Samsung’s most affordable 5G-enabled phone every time it launches.
A few weeks ago, Samsung launched a range of Galaxy A phones. In the Galaxy A line, Sammy introduces its budget-friendly models. Prices range from $ 110 to $ 550. Now it looks like a new entry is on the way.

Reliable leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer (aka @OnLeaks) shared some new pictures of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy A22 (h / t) today Gizmo China). Interestingly, the budget phone leans a bit on the camera design of Google Pixel phones, which is the first time Samsung has done this.
You can see the leaked renders below.

On the back, the square camera module is basically a dead alarm clock for the modules of every Pixel phone launched since the Pixel 4 in 2019. However, there appear to be three lenses here that no Pixel phone has yet supported.
Elsewhere, you’ll see a side-mounted fingerprint sensor that doubles as an on / off switch. This suggests that the Samsung Galaxy A22 could have an LCD display (since you need an OLED panel for built-in fingerprint sensors) which would certainly help keep costs down.

Given that the Galaxy A22 is likely to be a 5G capable phone but is still cheaper than the $ 280 Galaxy A32, it should be Samsung’s cheapest 5G phone. There are rumors that the company may launch a 4G-only variant in certain locations, but we don’t know for sure yet.
Either way, you can expect the Galaxy A22 to be cheap, 5G ready, and with a back cover that makes it look like a Pixel phone. Stay tuned!
