S22+ is by far the most successful Samsung I’ve ever seen. Great chip, great size, great cameras, and no curved screen. Everything hits the sweet spot!
I traded in my s10+ for the s22 in green. I was nervous about going smaller, but man was that the best decision. Absolutely amazing phone. It's the perfect size. Beyond happy with the 22.
@@maddy7771 With the way I use my phone, yes I can get through a day. That's mostly texting and Google searching and light youtube-ing! I'm at like 10%-15% by bedtime!
The Galaxy S10+ is still a fantastic device. I love the curved display,QHD screen,SD card, headphone jack,and the design overall. I'll keep it as my second phone next to my 3 months ago bought S21+,wich is also a great phone. I will not make the same mistake wich i made 4 years ago when i sold my S7edge,after buying then the S9+. The S7edge is also one of the still awesome devices.
I have just upgraded to the S22! I love the smaller screen size and I find the battery is still an all day battery! Also I'm retired so I have the time to charge it up during the day, however I find if I charge it overnight it lasts all day until I go to bed & usually have about 20 to 30% charge left! Of course I'm not a gamer & just use for RU-vid videos and web browsing!
@@lenacheney I agree that I don't understand people not getting at least 5 hours of SOT, unless you're a heavy gamer or basically using it all day long!
Mình muốn mua Samsung S22 nhưng lo lắng Pin 3700ma nhiều người nói chỉ sử dụng được 5 tiếng,điều đó có thật không.Nếu không chơi game không sử dụng wifi hay 4g nhiều thì sử dụng bao lâu thì còn 20% pin
Samsung should have at least bumped up the plus to a quad HD panel with more pixels to justify the higher price tag. I’m just about sure the s22 and s22 plus is most popular among regular consumers but reviewers are always going to spotlight the most expensive product.
I feel like it's a problem for the consumer, definitely. I have the S20+, the last QHD Plus model they made and I just can't bring myself to prefer an HD phone that's supposed to replace a QHD+ phone. That, and no Micro SD slot so even if Samsung got me to pay their outrageous price for a 1TB equipped phone, I still can't add any more storage to it, or have it be removable, which is such a loss for so many people, but not the majority. Samsung clearly want to maximize their profits and have most people buy the Ultra. Instead of having an entire lineup of great options, they subtly paired back the rest and want us to buy the clear winner. When before, every S series phone was a winner.
Quad HD is not a feature for me when I'm buying a phone. It doesn't tell any difference at all. For example, I have the Oppo Find X2 Pro with WQHD screen and Vivo X60 Pro with FHD screen but I have never seen any quantity difference between them. I understand that QHD on a smartphone is needless and we pay for it for nothing
Quad hd is not necessary on such a small screen. You won’t notice big differences. I’ve used all the of them and they are all plenty sharp. Don’t give that resolution more attention than it deserves.
Many people don’t view the S22 Ultra as being $200 more than the S22 Plus but as $400 more than the regular S22. For that reason I think the S22 Plus will be the popular one.
I just went from a s20 ultra to the s22 ultra and it really is a good jump and tbh I wasn't ready to upgrade but a good deal came my way I couldn't pass up. It really is an amazing phone. My only real complaint is no headphone jack but that goes for pretty much all phones now a days
I feel like the plus is a bit in an awkward position. It's 200 dollars more, whilst realistically having zero extra features over the regular S22 except physical size and battery capacity. On top of that, it's now also in a different price class of atleast 1000 dollars. And for that price, I also think the s22 lacks some features such as proper 1/10-120 LTPO, 1440p, ... And on top of THAT, it's pretty close in price to the s22 ultra which has alot more features. Infact, pre-order deals in my area made the much higher specced ultra just 50 dollars more expensive than the s22+ for over a month. I think people either went all-in or small
@@Gamer-vs3xl Agreed but i completely understand certain people want the design of the s22/s22+ or just don´t need the ultra features whilst prefering a bigger screen and/or battery
The battery alone would be the deciding factor if I were to get one of these phones. Gotta think about years down the road since the phones are getting so good and won't require a lot of switching. I've had my S10 since launch and it still works great but the battery life is down from when I first got it, and it's understandable.
Been using my s22 for a week now. Pros:1. really, really small. Youll forget its in ur pocket 2. Great in-hand feel. I can almost reach all 4 corners. No juggling the phone to reach the top. 3. Great cameras. 4. I am using an apple 18w charger and i get a full charge in abt 90 mins (i start chanrging at abt 20% juice left) Cons: 1. Damn the battery sucks 😕. I am a very very light user, just a few calls, some youtube, whatsapp and random surfing. A full charge at 8 in the morning comes down to abt 30 percent by 5 PM. IF you hog media, youll find urself looking for a charger more often than you'd like. 2. It heats up even with light usage. Even when i haven't touched it, it heats up in my pocket. To the point where i keep it on my desk. I guess its because of the background apps.
@@SudeepRohit that's the reason why the phone gets really hot even when not using it. It's a worldwide notice that the new snapdragon had overheating problems as well as the tremendous consumption of battery... These things in a phone such as the s22, make just the battery dies in a second.
Great comparison video but you're missing out on the charging speed. S22 can only charge at 25W but the S22+ can go up to 45W. I'm definitely going for the S22+.
Got the S22 last week. I love the size. I agree that paying +200 just for the bigger screen and battery is too much. In that case i would probably go pixel 6 pro or ultra. I love the flat screen, finally easy to get a good screen protector for like 10$. Good luck with that on the S22 Ultra. As for the S22 here are my observations on the cameras: Main is good, not the best I've seen but good enough. It's too wide at 23mm, so if you get too close to get some bokeh, faces are distorted. Ultrawide has good distortion correction, but no AF. Quality is ok, but would expect more. The star is definitely the 3x tele. Which is surprising as it's a tiny sensor. But clearly Sammy does some Ai trickery. 3x shots are pretty good and 10x are actually ok and usable. It seems Ai is painting in missing details in different zoom ranges and does a pretty good job. Oppo Find x5 has the better ultrawide, Pixel 6 Pro has a better zoom camera and even the main. The only other "small" phone with good specs is the iPhone 13 Pro...costs way more and zoom/ultrawide are pretty much an afterthought.
I went with the base S22 because it's just about the same size as the S9 that I traded in and that phone was the perfect size phone for me. The S22 is actually the largest size cellphone I've owned so I don't consider it a small phone.
One thing homie ! I think you should change your end of sentence voice, because you usually talk normally while speaking the the first and middle part of a sentence but every end of a sentence or the last word of the sentence is reaaaaally extended and it makes somehow the overall video not that pleasing to listen to, the video and information we get from the video is amazing and packed with everything though, just a masterpiece !
Hey very much appreciate the constructive feedback - I only started talking in front of the camera a couple months ago so your comment is super helpful, thanks!!
I like the regular S22. Plenty big enough. Might be the most perfect phone ever. I love mine. had it over 2 weeks now. Best android phone on the market imo. Love it. Not super great battery life, but enough for my day. I would quit iPhone for this phone. it's faster than my 13 Pro. The smaller S22 is exactly the same size as the the 13 Pro/non pro btw.
@ubeser Out of the box its hot. Once tuned to your habits its gets better. One thing does not change heat when gaming, you need to install samsung game drivers and game plugins and turn on game booster plus. That stops overheating when gaming (I have s22 snapdragon). Its really good with battery during games
Galaxy S23: 6.1", 4000mah battery, 1440p display, 12mp front facing camera, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, 5 years of software updates at $899. S23 series will be Samsung's best phones past, present and future.
I went for the “cream” colored S22 plus. Ended up trading my S21 plus for this and got $800.00 off so at the end of the day I only paid $200.00 for my new phone. I love the shape and overall design of the S22 plus and having twice the storage is amazing. Im glad I did the offer.
I will go for the s22 because it just feels really nice to hold in the hand compact portable. It looks beautiful and although it's a small phone but really powerful.
For someone who has tiny hands and arthritis I chose the S22. I felt like maybe I was comprising just a little for battery, not much difference between the difference to pay $200 more regardless. The camera specs was important and the ultra looked tempting just for the zoom capacities and 108 MP however I can't handle a phone that size. Lol
I rather choose s22 plus than ultra if it has 5000 mah battery maybe don't change the size of 6.7in diaplay just to make it 5000 mah battery. Bcoz the design of flat screen is way durable than curve display.
Great comparison. Well thought out and realistic points that people will actually care about. My only criticism: have you noticed that you end most of your sentences with the same upward inflection? I noticed about halfway through the video and it became kinda fatiguing to listen to
I'm getting my S22 in the mail tomorrow. And watching all these reviews I'm discovering that the last 4 or so years of 50 - 200$ phones has left me *very* out of touch w/ the standards of the premium market. I know *im* gonna be happy with it
Update: I've had it since the day after I posted this comment and let me tell u, aside from the tiktok issues this phone is amazing! I'm definitely going to be happy using it for the next 2 or so years
I ruled out the Ultra immediately, as I hate the design. That think looks heavy and super bulky. There aren't many differences between the S22 and S22 Plus, but screen size and battery are two of the most important features in a phone for me, so the Plus was an easy decision. I've just switched from an S10 Plus, which is still a pretty great phone. In many ways the S22 Plus mostly just feels like an improved, refined revision of that, which is fine by me.
@@waynegroleau3946 Same here, I held on to my S10+ too. Its too good a phone to trade in for peanuts, especially because mine is still in flawless condition. I'll occasionally use it for watching RU-vid around the house I guess, and maybe end up giving it to someone who needs a phone.
Man, my hands are considered pretty big, and yet I have problems with the size of my s22+, let alone anything bigger, why someone would go for the Ultra which is even larger is beyond me. The sizes are objectively getting out of hand, it's becoming ridiculous at this point.
It's gotten kinda ridiculous honestly. They're mobile "phones". I have the base s21 because I prefer ease of use for texting and using it as a phone with one hand over having a big ass screen that needs 2 hands to perform basic tasks. I'd be willing to pay more to get better battery life and the nicer cameras in the smaller base model of the phone tho. They kinda screw us people that want a normal sized phone with the better features.
From what I've been seeing, unless you are buying the ultra version. The models from last year have been better at least with battery life. I have the base s21 and I have no motivation to upgrade to either of the two of these. Not that Samsung expects you to, but I can't for the life of me understand why they would downgrade the battery on the base model other than to make the ultra model seem better. I guess that's just the way the market works though.
I just bought an s22 coming from an s10e, I decided not to buy the s21 because it was to tall and uncomfortable to use, but the s22 is the perfect size for me. Can’t wait for it to arrive!
@@AnyFeeling the battery life using it for mostly tiktok and google lasts 6:30-7:30 hours, It lasts me anout 2 days without a charge, though im using 60 hz, with 120hz it lasts about 5:30-6 hours
@@AnyFeeling battery life on the s10e Waa terrible only 3 hours Max screen on time but I had it since it came out so it was a bit old. Standby mode I got about 40-48 hours with WiFi and everything turned off
Considering long-term use and battery degradation, I would say picking S22+ over the S22 is also a reasonable choice. If you plan to switch your phone every year or so then I think you get more value out of the S22.
Maybe they have small difference on battery capacity by number (800mAh) but it will noticable considering how great the s22 series on power consumption
@@akashkumardash6918 yah...i was think about it.but actually now im using huawei p30 pro.. When i switch to s22+ surely i will missd the telephoto cam and the out standing battery life in p30 pro
I bought S22. wanted top spec but compact size, easy to hold in hand and in pocket. only 2 difference: i) screen size and brightness ii) battery and fast charging.
@@thefool4989 The battery is great. It lasts for 10+ hrs of continuous youtube playing on a single charge (ran a test once). It charges adequately fast. I noticed during normal use that it overheats up to worrying temperatures. Not during charging though but more likely due to core running apps in the background. About the phone in general: 1- I still cant get over the odd width of S22 compared to the PERFECT palm fit of my old S8. The perfect dimensions in my opinion would be an S22 length, S22 depth, S8 width. 2- Extremely relieved and happy for dropping the overflow (curved) screen of S8 which was a nightmare everytime I reach for it. Flat screens are the best. 3- Not too crazy about the raised camera bezel. A flat back would be more elegant (in my opinion). 4- Scratch prone screen! The S8 screen is more scratch resilient. 5- Perfect performance! No freezing. No holdups. Excellent colours, contrast and brightness. Still keeping my fingers crossed for not developing red bands (burnouts) across the screen like my S8 did after few months from brand new. 6- Solid platform (like S8) for wireless connections. 7- Cant "spy" on my wife because she uses iPhone, but she has no problems "spying" on me! :) Everytime I grab her iPhone I feel like I'm all thumbs. It shows how perfect, intuitive, and user friendly Samsung Android is.
I think that Samsung are going a bit mad with these numbers and names, why not just release phones based on number S22 S23 S24 instead of plus and minus and ultra and edge and wtf else lol
Got S22 128G (white) last week. Loving it overall. The phone does feel quite small in hand despite having the 6.1” display though, enough that it had me wondering if I should upgrade to S22+ or not.
Sometimes I pick up my 6.1 inch S20 and it feels like a s20+. Having a comfortable phone seems ideal whereas the plus might suddenly feel too big occasionally. Anywhere, except for sitting in your couch at home, I feel like a plus is too big
@@USArmy91222 1080 on these displays is phenomenal. 1440p is really more of a useless feature, ESPECIALLY on the regular s22. But even on the s22+, 1080p is really sharp.
@@USArmy91222 I had the s22 and s22+ delivered home to try out both, so there´s one reason why I know. Another is that I also have a s20 and s8. I can´t tell the difference between 1080p and 1440p on the devices themselves and the 1080p s22 seems just as sharp as my s20 on 1440p
@@jose512 yeah, I really like the small compact size & the light weight of the S22. I've had it for a week now and I really can't tell a difference between the screen sizes from the S22 and S9+ The phone might be smaller but the screen size fills up the entire phone. The only complaint I have is the battery. I unplugged my phone at 9am and it's currently 11pm and it's at 18% with normal use. If you want something with a longer battery life go with the S22+ That's my only complaint so far, the battery life. Other than that I really like the upgrade from my old S9+.
@@Jorge-125 Thank you for taken the time to answer! Really good to know the battery isn’t that great. Enjoy your new phone, I’m still thinking about the choices,
this is 2023 and both of them are available at the same price point. I personally like smaller phones so the s22 wins there, but on the other hand, i am planning to use this for atleast 3 years and considering the battery degradation, i feel that s22+ would be better. still cant decide between the two
I've not made my mind up between them yet, but this video gave me a lot to thing about, thank you. Although I will still die on the hill that glass is not an upgrade to plastic on the back of a phone!
I have the s21 and love the plastic back. Every damn phone I've had with glass backs have cracked, but this one has bounced off concrete and asphalt multiple times and luckily isn't even scratched. So which is more premium, having to pay to get the back glass replaced or having a good feeling plastic that stands up to my abuse? I'll take the plastic
Just found your channel man great content. I actually should be getting my S22 Plus today!! I cant wait im upgrading from my Galaxy S10 Plus so definitely a big upgrade
Thanks a lot for this video man. My Galaxy S6 has finally died and I am researching which Samsung S22 would be the best option for me since it is time for an upgrade. This video was really well made and much appreciated!
I just made the switch after 12 years of iPhone. Why does my all videos, RU-vid, Netflix, hulu and any streaming app have a really bad frame rate drop with jittery playback?
Just wanted to say....go for the s22 +. WHY, because of the bigger battery. You should not really be charging your phone to 100% every single day. If you set the device to only charge to 85%...then the s22+..will last you all day. Also,,,turn off 5G if you do not need it. Will save you 15% battery usage.
Are only Battery life and screen size the major and noticable difference between s22 and s22+? Bcus im actually torn between these two. I love the smaller size cus i have small hands but im worried about the battery bcus i do a lot on my phone plus i play games.
I was thinking about buying the 22 ULTRA b/c I like the big screen, but I changed my mind after I went to Bestbuy and handled it physically - bad ergonomics. The corners are too sharp for my taste. So now it's between the 22+ and the Pixel 7. I will wait see an objective review comparing the two.
I won't be going for base model as I like to download movies and take lots of photos and videos I need at least 512GB so my only choices are iPhone 13 with 512GB or s22 ultra with 512GB.
@@mikeuk8486 seems like it drains faster than I want it to...but I stay on RU-vid all day. I bought a 25w fast charger and that takes me from like 35% to 75% in 15 minutes. It will depend on your usage and whether a top up during the day bothers you.
@@mikeuk8486 also it takes about 10 days to 2 weeks for the adaptive battery to learn usage and optimize....I've had mine just a week now....so I'm hoping for a little improvement but I'm OK with it's current performance...
Great video - nice presentation, arguments, and opinion! I have one question: where did you find those wallpapers? They look great! Keep up the great work!
I pretty much broke my s21, or at least the sim card reader. So now I'm debating if I want a similar size that I already know feels nice. Or the s22 plus that'll feel more like an upgrade with it's size
I got the s22 ultra and sending it back picking up the s22 plus today. The s22 plus just feels so much better and didnt really notice a visual difference in the displays or battery life. But the overa feel is fantastic. I have the tab s8 ultra for my s pen and more tablet needs.
@@costa_4764 yeah the s22 plus gets great battery and 7 hours sot is about right. My s22 ultra gets around 7-9 houts sot. The s22 base was getting 3-4 which was good for my use case.
I've had my Plus for 2 days now. Absolutely love it, really wanted the Ultra for the camera, but the bulky, heavy, pointy edges and curved screen put me off - I had found myself using an A30s in preference to my Note 9 for these reasons. Battery on the Plus is still a bit disappointing, but I believe it takes about a week to optimise. Samsung is very naughty not to put the top tier cameras on at least another flagship - the Plus. I envisage using this phone for the next four years or so, until all the Z Flip issues are ironed out, really looking forward to that convenient shape!
Do you think the S22 is better or the S21+? I thought of buying the S22, but there were many complaints about the battery and the S22+ was too expensive, so I started to think if I should buy the S21+. I am a heavy user. S21+(Exynos 2100), S22(SD8Gen1).
I like the S22 plus because it's a lot bigger of a phone and when your watching you know RU-vid and all that stuff a the better bigger screen always works better for me. I like bigger phones just the ultra is just too big for me. S22 plus is the perfect size
Not too impressed that there's no 512gb storage option on the S22 and Plus models. Lousy by Samsung forcing folk to buy the Ultra for the extra base storage. I'll wait and see if the S23 gives us a better storage option. If not I'm done with Sammy after 11 years. Great upload yet again👍🏻!
I've been using my S7 for 6 years now and I can use an upgrade this year. as you said in this video, it's a hard choice to make but I'm leaning towards the S22.
