As much as Samsung would have liked to keep its Galaxy S22 series price-competitive, it looks as if this chip shortage has other plans. First, the Korean tech juggernaut was forced to postpone the Exynos 2200 launch, and it might need to price its flagship smartphone family higher than the ones it launched previously.

While an exact price was not discussed in the latest tweet, Sam has put out a small update for us that the Galaxy S22 lineup could be costlier for those attempting to make an upgrade. In case you forgot, a different tipster said that this flagship series would start from $899, making it $100 more expensive than the Galaxy S21 range. Samsung’s chip foundry is also seeing some problems, which is why Qualcomm was previously rumored to give some Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 orders to TSMC due to low 4nm yields from Samsung’s side.
