Galaxy S22 launch date and prices for South Africa"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The Samsung Galaxy S22 range will launch in South Africa on 11 March 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy S22 series offers numerous advancements over last year&#8217;s S21, including a faster processor, brighter display, and an improved camera system with impressive night mode capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>The top-of-the-line Galaxy S22 Ultra now features a Note-like design and includes an S Pen with a slot for inserting and charging the stylus.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung South Africa director for integrated mobility Justin Hume said that retailers will offer pre-order deals on the devices.<\/p>\n<p>A Galaxy S22 Ultra pre-order will come bundled with the Galaxy Buds Pro earbuds, which currently sell for R3,999 when bought from the Samsung Store.<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy S22 and S22+ will come with Galaxy Buds Live, valued at R1,999.<\/p>\n<p>To encourage consumers interested in upgrading or switching to a Samsung Galaxy S22 from a previous generation flagship, Samsung will launch an attractive trade-in offer.<\/p>\n<p>This will offer buyers a R10,000 discount when they trade in their old device.<\/p>\n<p>Hume said that the discount is R10,000 regardless of the condition of the device, as long as it switches on.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, trade-in programme discounts are much lower if the phone&#8217;s screen or chassis is damaged.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Pricing breakdown<\/h3>\n<p>Notably, Samsung will not offer the 128GB versions of the Galaxy S22 series in South Africa at launch, as has been the case for its other recent flagships.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the only storage option available will be 256GB.<\/p>\n<p>The recommended retail prices for the Galaxy S22 series in South Africa are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Galaxy S22 \u2014\u00a0R19,999 (256GB)<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy S22+ \u2014 R22,999 (256GB)<\/li>\n<li>Galaxy S22 Ultra \u2014 R28,999 (256GB)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Below are the
