On Thursday, June 3, the Korean company Samsung quietly announced a new member of the Galaxy A series. This is the Samsung Galaxy A22, an entry-level model that is offered in two variants – with and without 5G. In addition to supporting fifth generation cellular networks, the two versions have several key differences.
