Rumors that it might include a Note-style S-Pen slot.
Taken from Engadget … Don’t be dismayed that Samsung passed on the Galaxy Note in 2021… you might get your stylus-equipped phone before too long. Frequent tipster OnLeaks has shared renders with Zouton, 91Mobiles and Digit that reportedly show the designs of next year’s Galaxy S22 phones, including an Ultra model aimed squarely at Note fans. It would effectively be a sequel to the Galaxy Note 20, complete with an S-Pen slot and less rounded corners. There would also be a fourth camera you didn’t even see on the S21 Ultra, although it’s not clear what functionality you’d get.
The other models wouldn’t be quite so thrilling, however. If accurate, the renders suggest the S22 and S22+ (possibly badged as the S22 Pro) wouldn’t be radically different from the S21 on the outside. They’d sport flatter backs and a slightly refined camera bump, but not much more. Most of the changes would sit underneath. Rumors have the regular S22 models jumping to a 50MP main camera (up from 12MP) and using Qualcomm’s next-gen Snapdragon chip or Samsung’s equivalent Exynos.
