Samsung might not release a Fan Edition version of the Galaxy S22

After just a couple of years, Samsung is reportedly no longer planning to release a Fan Edition version of its flagship smartphones. SamMobile cites unnamed "multiple sources" that it won't make a Fan Edition model of this year's Galaxy S22. The company might be finding it difficult to place the device within its portfolio. The S21 FE was released almost a full year after the S21, and it came out just a few weeks before the Galaxy S22 was unveiled. It proved difficult to get people to care about the S21 FE when the new S22 flagships were launched.

Samsung Galaxy S23 rumoured to get new 200MP camera

Samsung has reportedly completed work on its new 200-megapixel sensor for its 2023 flagships, which could be the Samsung Galaxy S23. The company is reportedly in the process of picking suppliers for its production. Samsung's component division, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, will reportedly get 70% of the orders for this new ISOCELL sensor, while other partners will fulfill 30% of the orders. With the final design complete, Samsung reportedly wants to ramp up production for ISOCELL HP3 to have them ready for next year's flagships (a.k.a. the S23).

As SamMobile noted, though, this won't be the same sensor as the ISOCELL HP1, also a 200-megapixel camera. The HP3 is reportedly an upgraded version, but it isn't clear what improvements were made. The HP1 can already do things like record 8K and 4K and offer features like advanced HDR and Double Super Phase Detection autofocus.

Samsung is about to hold its second event of the year. The company has started sending out invites for its "Awesome Galaxy A Event" on Thursday, March 17 at 10 AM ET. The event will stream live on Samsung's website and YouTube channel. That event invite highlights what we're expecting from the brand. There are rumours that Samsung plans to introduce the Galaxy A73 and A53 this year. That would follow a similar timeline to last year's launch Galaxy A72 and A52. 

Rumour has it that the Galaxy A73 and A53 will be 5G-ready devices, an upgrade for the A72. (The Galaxy A52 already has a 5G variant.) The A73 is expected to have the same 6.7-inch display and Snapdragon 750G processor, while the Galaxy A53 is expected to pair its 6.5-inch display with its in-house Exynos 1200 chipset.
