Samsung Galaxy S22 Prototype Leak – Exclusive Look at the Pre-Production Device (UIR1192MUIR SM-S906B)

Valmento has obtained an exclusive Samsung Galaxy S22 pre-production prototype, labeled UIR1192MUIR / SM-S906B. This early engineering unit provides a rare glimpse into Samsung’s internal development process – months before the official retail release. It’s not a commercial product, but a prototype used for testing hardware, firmware, and internal configurations.

Exclusive Access to a Rare Samsung Device

According to our internal sources, this prototype was never meant to reach public hands. These early units are distributed to engineering and development teams within Samsung for performance validation and hardware calibration. Valmento had the unique opportunity to examine this device up close – and document the entire process on video.

Design and Hardware Insights

While the overall form factor aligns with the production Galaxy S22, the UIR1192MUIR SM-S906B variant shows subtle hardware and firmware differences. The prototype features pre-release firmware with diagnostic menus, unfinalized camera calibration, and placeholder system assets. The device is fully functional, but marked “Not for Sale” on the back panel – a clear sign of its pre-production status.

Software and Firmware Details

Our team identified internal testing tools within the system settings, including debugging interfaces and camera performance monitoring apps. The build version suggests it was compiled for early developer access in Samsung’s European test labs. The software lacks retail Samsung apps and contains placeholder builds used for quality assurance testing.
