As our most eco-conscious device ever, the Galaxy S22 Series 5G pioneers mobile technology while supporting our planet. Plastic pollution poses serious threats to our environment, and discarded fishing nets are especially harmful to marine life and our oceans. By collaborating with leading organisations, Samsung helps recover discarded fishing nets10 and transforms them into a high-performance material for our smartphones. This material – used in the Galaxy S22 Series 5G’s component, key bracket – contains 20% recycled ocean-bound plastic11 from discarded fishing nets. The Galaxy S22 Series 5G also incorporates post-consumer recycled material in its speaker module, as well as the inner parts of the power and volume keys.
In addition to ocean-bound plastics, we use 100% recycled paper for the Galaxy S22 5G’s packaging and include a protective film made from recycled plastic. Every smartphone case12 is also designed with UL-certified, eco-conscious materials – such as recycled post-consumer plastics or bio-based substances. These purposeful innovations are the latest example of Samsung’s commitment to doing more with less as part of Galaxy for the Planet.
“Our consumers are becoming more aware of their environmental impact. We’re working towards contributing to a more sustainable future by taking small steps through product and material innovation to bring a more eco-conscious product to market,” added Ms. Chua.
Built with Security in mind
Both the Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ 5G are secured by Samsung’s powerful Knox Vault security platform, which protects and isolates sensitive data such as passwords, biometrics or blockchain keys from the main operating system. With One UI 4.0, users can also easily see which apps are accessing your data and camera. In addition, the range of Galaxy S22 Series 5G smartphones will also come with several new security features, including ARM micro architecture, which helps prevent cyberattacks that target your operating system and memory.
Stay Connected with the Galaxy Ecosystem
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Series 5G smartphones now join a greater Galaxy ecosystem to allow users to stay connected in every aspect of their lives. Pair it with the all-new Galaxy Tab S8 Series– including Tab S8, Tab S8+ and Tab S8 Ultra 5G – which offers new work, play and creation scenarios to support the hybrid lifestyles of consumers today. Samsung is also introducing a pack of updated features for Galaxy Watch4, including the ability to install their favourite smartphone apps13 on their Galaxy Watch4 during initial setup with one tap, creating a seamless experience across devices right out of the box.
