Shortage of Galaxy S22: There may not be enough flagships for everyone

Two weeks remain before the Unpacked event, which will present the flagships of the Galaxy S22 series. It is expected that sales of new products will start two weeks after the release. Preparing for the start of sales of the Galaxy S22, Samsung is accumulating stocks of new products, but whether there will be enough of them, and whether they will be replenished in a timely manner and in full, is still a question.

Analyst Dohyun Kim assures that the company does not rule out that the shortage of new products cannot be avoided. According to him, Samsung expects that it will not be able to meet the high demand for smartphones, which could lead to an increase in the delivery time of the Galaxy S22 by 2-3 months. And it’s “worse than the Galaxy Z Fold 3”. Fans can be reassured by the fact that the analyst does not say that the shortage and extended delivery time is already a proven fact. He only says that this is the worst scenario and there is no complete certainty that events will develop according to it.

Delays in the delivery of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 did take place. There was little hype around the new generation of foldable smartphones, and the company was unable to meet the demand for them at first. Because of this, it was forced to postpone the delivery of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 in several countries by a month.

The announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S22 series is a stone’s throw away.

Among the information to be compared, there will be price tags for the new devices.
