Today I will be sharing with you my experience and long term review after using the Samsung Galaxy S22 for the past 3 months, both the good and the bad. To ultimately help you decide whether the Galaxy S22 is the right phone for you. I opted to go for the Galaxy S22 in 128GB and chose Phantom Black. This comes in at $799 or £769. I love the design of the S22. The matte textured glass back not only looks good but also feels comfortable in the hand. The shiny aluminium sides of the S22, slightly curve, and this makes it easy to grip. My only concern with durability lies in the glass on the display. Through normal use, my display has gotten a few large scratches that are visible and don’t look great. As someone who typically uses iPhones, having USB-C is great. Samsung are know of their incredible displays and the S22 is no exception. After using the S22, I can safely say this is the best smartphone display I’ve used. The symmetrical, super thin bezels make the phone feel modern and cutting edge. The ultrasonic under screen fingerprint reader is fast and secure. Not to mention the small pin hole selfie camera is barely noticeable when watching videos and using the phone generally. Colours are vibrant and the display is really sharp so even smaller text is easy to read. The display also get’s really bright, with up to 1300 nits of brightness. It has a 120 hz refresh rate, this makes motion on screen appear extra smooth. I consider battery to be one of the key pillars of any smartphone and it is unfortunate but in this area the Galaxy S22 falls short of my expectations. In day to day use, I found myself getting around 5-6 hours of screen-on time. For reference I get around 7-8 in the iPhone 13. For example, during a typical day of mixed use I end the day at around 6pm with 20% remaining on the S22, meaning I can just about get through a full day but not evening. Whereas on the iPhone 13 I can get through a full day plus evening with battery to spare. Thankfully thought when it comes to performance the S22 delivers! With it’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip, games, photo or video editing apps run super smooth. To add to this, Samsung’s one UI is probably the most stable experience you will find on android and has generally performed well! Something really important to me is that the S22 is said to get 4 years of software updates, as someone who typically uses an iPhone, I love to see this. On the back we have a triple lens camera setup, the best of which is the 50 megapixel wide angle lens and is the one I use most. Photos are detailed. White balance is accurate in all lighting conditions. Colours, are slightly more on the saturated side but still look fantastic.Video, though not at the level of that of the iPhone, 4K 60fps video looks good. The selfie camera on the front creates sharp photos and gets decently wide for group selfies and video calls. Ok so, after 3 months of using the Galaxy S22, have my thoughts changes and is it still worth buying? At the end of my original review, I said the S22 is a phone that is almost perfect. With it’s premium design, best in class display, impressive array of cameras, fast performance with years of software support. The only part that falls short is battery. And now after months of using, not only is just as true, it is also a bit frustrating as this phone really almost has it all. Still, the Galaxy S22, at it’s price, remains to be in my opinion the best all-round phone you can buy on the Android side for the price.

I have an s22 and the battery definitely leaves you wanting more. On a normal day it's at 10% when going to bed. I need to charge it on heavy use days and before going out to the bars. Otherwise it is the perfect size for smaller hands and great build quality. The camera quality impressed iphone users lol. I have the bumper case on my phone that gives the phone basic protection without covering up the beautiful design.

@@ottallman Assuming you haven't tried any of this, running the phone in 60hz while at work (power saving mode does the same thing + much more) will help. You can also make sure 'Adaptive Battery' is on, and make sure you allow apps to sleep, under: 'Battery & Device Care' > 'Background usage limits'. Be sure to check out the additional power saving options in the settings to reduce CPU usage and other stuff while at work.

@Laerei Год назад

I just got my S22 to replace my daily driver Essential PH1 and I did a double take when I opened to box because on the front they are pretty much identical. Save for the top of the phone where Essetial has a slot for sensors and notification light and the camera has notch in the screen rather than a stright up hole like S22. I didn't use screen protector on my Essential and save for a tiny microscratch that's only visible in strong light, the screen has remained scratch free. I keep mine inside a leather sleeve and I was happy to see that S22 goes snugly into the same sleeve so I don't have to get a new one. This sleeve is the reason why my Essential didn't get any scratches in all these years. So I'll ignore your recommendation to get a screen protector, which get scratched so much easier, gather dirt on the edges and would have to be occasionally swapped.

@GrumpyKay Год назад

I have an s22 and you are spot on with everything. Yeah the battery doesn't last nearly as long as it should, however, being able to charge it with fast charging, makes up for that. If I can plug it in for an hour, or even just anywhere for some small time, it charges fast enough. I just carry around a charger which isn't that big a deal.

Though s22 isn't huge with battery as well, atleast it's double from flip 3 and kind of still end up with a compact phone which was my reason to go for flip 3, and bonus you get a telephoto camera, might switch at s23.

@systemofapown 2 года назад

I agree, it's such a shame they skimped on the battery cell when this phone had everything going for it. If it weren't for that, I'd buy it. Perhaps it was to keep the chassis very slim, but I would have preferred a slightly chunkier phone with a better battery life. It's a deal breaker.

@tomchupick9450 Год назад

My Samsung S22 is a great phone, but has a few issues. The battery life is an issue, but stretches to more than a day on power save mode. The camera has a surprisingly good 3X zoom, which partly makes up for the lack of macro and the occasional out of focus shot on moving objects and a bit of flaring on lights. The connectivity also has issues - I struggle to use usb-C to HDMI on my old TV, which works perfectly on my iPad pro. The usb C connection may be to blame since it doesn’t charge some of the time when plugged in - even after I upgraded to the extra fast charger. Just in case I’ll hang on to my S7 which still performs flawlessly after 6 years….

@DionMedia Год назад

Bought mine within the month of release! Honestly the battery isnt a big deal to me since I was coming from a phone where I basically fried the battery and would drain within an hour. With light use I say it's good battery life! My only complain, that I'm hoping will change in the future, is the 1080p display. Coming from a 1440p display, it was a huge downgrade and it did bother me before i got used to 1080p. Other than that I have no issues with this phone, if anything if the s23 lineup isn't ugly, I'll probably upgrade just to get more storage cus 128gb for 4k concert videos is not enough 😁

I really am in love with the s22 design but aside from the obvious cons, it looks like phone accessories are more available in the IOS world. It would be my first time owning a Samsung so I dont have the charger brick but i have the charger for an iPhone. My main priorities for owning a phone is to finally download work and school apps my old iphone 6 (only has ios 12.5) can no longer have. I also want a great all-around camera and good battery life. I iPhone 6 has super short battery life so I guess any new phone is better than mine. I dont do games but im active in social media in my spare time.

is the S22 compatible with the ExpertRaw app from samsung galaxy store ? Have you taken photos in RAW format ? How is the experience of editing the Raw images in Adobe Lightroom / Photoshop ?

Hi Ciunga, it is possible to shoot in RAW on the S22 with the expert RAW app. I would definitely recommend using that when editing in Apps like Lightroom. But, no matter how good, they can not compare with a proper independent camera, so I would manage expectations. Having said this, the S22 has one of the best cameras on smartphones available right now. Is far as DeX is concerned I think that this is for most a gimmick, not a very useful feature.

How can we open the phone without the side button?

@di44ito Год назад

I just bought thia one. Before it i was using S9 and i want to change 2 things if there is a way. The first is on my S9 when i pressea the central button from the 3 once down on the screen when the phone was locked it vibrated and lighted the screen. I'm really used to this feature and don't know how and even is it possible to set it on the s22 plus the same way. The second one is the changing of the language when i'm writing. Before i had to slide the space button and now i have to press the earth icon. I know that both things are not that big of i deal, but i juat liked the old way better and will be happy if someone knows how i can set them on the s22 too. Thanks in advance!

@5ch3nk 2 года назад

I just got a Motorola Edge 5g. I'm honestly thinking about returning it and getting an S22 instead. A big factor in that is the size of the phone is just uncomfortable to use, or have in my pocket. I've got decent size hands, but holding onto it with one hand for use is a balancing act and you really have to stretch your thumb around. I've also read a few reviews saying the screen breaks easily when dropped, and it gets easily water damaged. My S8 finally died because I got caught in a rainstorm (I've dropped it a bunch and it had cracks the water got through), so both those things with the Moto really worry me.

@5ch3nk 2 года назад

.....Yep. Went back today and got the S22 instead. Still getting it setup with all my apps/layout, but I like it more already. It feels better in size, and just overall build quality. I knew I should have just stuck with Samsung....my S8 had a really good run.

@darshshah4090 2 года назад

I have an S20 FE 5G right now and I am thinking of switching to an S22. I am a mid-user who plays games sometimes uses social media moderately and clicks photos. Is it advisable for me to jump over S22?

@DionMedia 2 года назад

Hi Darsh, I think you can stick to your S20 FE 5G that should last some additional years. Of course you can always switch to the S22 that brings some nice new features to the table but none that make a big difference with the S20. As with the S20, the battery life of the S22 remains below what is to be expected

Should I go for a regular S22 or S21 Ultra ? Which one have a better camera ?

Hi, that is a good question! Never had the S21Ultra, so my opinion is of limited use ;(. To my understanding the S21 Ultra has more lenses and a better focal range, while the S22 has better enhanced photo capacity. If I had to chose I would go for the S22 because of longevity and longer software support. But I am sure there are better experts than I around there to answer your question

@premgaru8556 Год назад

I am already using the S22 Ultra 512GB. The reason I was considering the 13 and the S22 is because of their smaller form factor, a phone I can carry with me when I am out and about. For the record I am neither an 'Apple sheep' nor an 'Android fan boy'. I think both have their plus and minus points. But when it comes to compact phones with most of the desired features iPhones take the cake. The 13 mini is a tad too tiny for me, so I guess it'll be the iPhone 13 256GB. And hey, thanks for writing Dion . . . I appreciate it.
