Context
Why does this story matter?
Samsung has been offering the 1TB storage variant of S22 Ultra in some regions but it was not launched in India when the S22 line-up was announced here in February. This disappointed Indian customers who wanted to buy the maxed-out variant.
Finally, the 1TB storage model has been launched here. However, apart from the extra storage, it is exactly the same as other variants.
