As is usually the case with older flagships, prices drop when their successors are launched, and that’s what Samsung did in India for its Galaxy S22 smartphones. However, only the largest and smallest of the S22 family can be purchased at a reduced price, while the Galaxy S22+ is discounted.
The vanilla Galaxy S22 now goes for INR 57,999 starting price, while the 256GB option will set you back INR 61,999. Originally these were priced at INR 72,999 and INR 76,999, but of course those were launch prices from a year ago.
The Galaxy S22 Ultra also sees a significant price cut, with the base model now asking INR 109,999 instead of INR 131,999.
Those are the official prices on Samsung’s own online store in India, but third-party retailers have them for even less. And as we’ve already said, the S22+ is a little hard to come by, which suggests that the entire S22 lineup will be around while stocks last and will be discontinued soon, so you’d better hurry.
Even though it’s a year-old flagship family, the Galaxy S22 is still quite capable. In fact, one would argue that the new Galaxy S23 series offers a marginal upgrade at a higher price. Furthermore, Samsung’s extended 4-year software support makes an even stronger argument for buying the older flagships.
