Samsung tipped to Get IP67 Water-Resistant Builds in 2022

As per a report, Samsung Galaxy A-series smartphone models, including the rumored Galaxy A33, will reportedly get a water-resistance rating in 2022. The report said these phones fall into Samsung’s mid-to-low range of smartphones, and the company aims to compete with Chinese brands like Xiaomi and Oppo. Samsung Galaxy A52, Galaxy A72, and A52s 5G smartphones provide an IP67 water resistance rating. Samsung delivers a water-resistance rating with its smartphones in the Galaxy S, Galaxy Note, and other foldable series. In a Report by The Elec, at 9to5google, the Samsung Galaxy A33 will be the first Galaxy A-series phone in 2022 to get an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance. The report says that apart from the Samsung Galaxy A33, other models, including Galaxy A53, Galaxy A53 5G, and Galaxy A73 5G, will also get IP67 dust- and water-resistant ratings. These phones were earlier reported to launch sometime in 2022.
Meanwhile, The Elec also reports that Samsung is planning to bring new changes to the production process for the back panels of smartphones next year. The South Korean giant will reportedly reduce the number of injections and coatings from 2 to 1 to reduce the production cost.
