A mysterious, unannounced Nokia G22 phone was recently spotted in the GeekBench database. We still don’t have a lot of detail on the phone, but what is available doesn’t seem like a major upgrade over the existing Nokia G21.
Nokia G22 GeekBench result
GeekBench reports pretty low single and multi-core scores from an unnamed Unisoc chipset. An 8-core unit, clocked at 1.61GHz, our bet would be that it is actually the exact same Unisoc T606 as found in the Nokia G21.
While the chipset might be carried forward, at least GeekBench reports that the G22 is rocking 4GB of RAM, which hopefully suggests that the base 3GB RAM version from the G21 is no longer a thing. Last but not least, the benchmark result mentions Android 12. This means that G22 buyers can likely expect an upgrade to Android 13 and beyond in the future, whereas the G21 might eventually only end up with Android 13 since it launched with Android 11, and HMD is currently offering two years of software updates.
