That was the biggest deal deal breaker for me not upgrading to this phone. Not having an SD card slot. Hopefully they add it again in the future since that was one of the biggest ways they differentiate themselves from Apple and their iPhone. Also I think the "not having enough room" thing for me is BS. I'm Samsung could of found a way if they really wanted to.

@HowardYing1 2 года назад

I totally agree and understand, but personally, I don't see a reason the average consumer will need more than 128 or 256 with an increasing user base using cloud storage for the important pictures and videos. Of course, there's drawbacks, but I think we're at the point where built in storage is enough for most, at least for now.

Im not over the SD card loss either. Im not gonna stop using my old S9 until the day i either break the screen, or it just dies on its own. Such a good phone and i think it still has at least a year of life left in it.

@MrJest2 2 года назад

My S9 Note got "inflated battery syndrome" and split the glass case. I recently replaced it with an S20, and it's still got SD support, but it's in the SIM tray so it's not easily accessible. Not that I'm shuttling gigabytes of data on and off the phone very often, so I really don't care. But it's a solid device and a few hundred cheaper than the flagship models. I specifically got the Note because of the stylus, because my skin is so dry my fingers often don't work correctly with touch-screens - so I have no interest in a phone that doesn't have one.

@edwardallenthree 2 года назад

After watching a bunch of videos on the ultra (yes, I've pre-ordered), I'm starting to think that Samsung just used a design they already had for a possible S21 Note, but jumped the last version for the reasons we already know (didn't make sense at the time). And NOW, they know that people won't stand for the detached Spen, so they brought it back under the same design they had stashed in a dust drawer somewhere and slaped the Ultra name. Hehehe

@TheDarkestPhoenix 2 года назад

We really need a resurgence of no frills but features people actually care about phones+latest SOC at reasonable prices. You know, the role that the OnePlus One filled originally. It wasn't a perfect phone(no sd, replacable battery), but it did a lot of the things I cared about and cut costs where it made sense. OnePlus has really fallen far since then.

@lamort223able 2 года назад

Day one S20+ user here, I still love the phone and I will probably refurbish it myself with a new frame, new backglass and new battery since its in rough shape. Oddly enough, the only complaint that I have with the phone is the new OneUI 4 update, I get bugs and crashes that I never had before, I think its on google's side since my friend who owns a Pixel 6 Pro has the same issues.

@racerex340 2 года назад

Same, S10 and recently got Android 12 and OneUI 4.0. I don't see the OneUI update as being much of an "upgrade", but this will definitely be the last major update we'll get. Which royally sucks, because specs-wise, the S10 is perfect, still has a headphone jack, still has an SD card slot and 4100mAh battery, so I can still use wired 3.5mm headphones w/out a dongle, have a fairly fast 512GB SDXC card for $50 and my battery lasts all day since I don't have to charge wireless earbud case off of my phone's battery. The thing is, if Samsung put the specs of the S22 Ultra into a phone with an SD card and headphone jack, I'd spend the $1200 for the 128GB version, but WTF Samsung?

What's really really nice about Samsung is the integration with windows. When I'm working, I practically never touch my phone because I can make and take calls from laptop. I haven't tried it with other android, but the link to windows is already installed on the S10+. It can also copy paste from the laptop to phone and vice versa. Hence I can copy something from the laptop, and when I open my phone and tap paste, boom, you have the text which you copied from the laptop. The integration makes me more efficient since I don't have to reach for my phone every time.

@notallwhowanderarelost4797 Год назад

I'm SO with you on the SD card slots, and not even for the sake of less expensive storage expansion. Except for my phone, every device I own takes SD cards. For me they're the easiest way to move around photos and other data, and keep them safe. Even though I'm not "in the Apple ecosystem" (never owned any Apple product other than a phone) the hassle of switching from iPhone is not worth it to me unless I can get an *easily accessible* SD card slot, along with a camera as good as any iPhone and other features I want.

I've fallen out of love with the Fold too. It's back to the noteish S22 Ultra. I wanted a phone that turned into a tablet, but I ended up with an annoyingly delicate micro tablet that folded into a chonky TV remote. I'm now enjoying apps and content that actually use all of the screen, and it's a solid screen too. It feels like a classic case of technology trying to make a use case but creating more problems than it solved, like 3D TV. I can picture the ideal foldable phone in my mind. It's the same thickness as the s22 ultra, doesn't have a crease, the internal screen is made of magic non existent glass that bends with no curvature radius, and of course the internal and external screens are both 16 x 9 aspect ratios because the laws of physics are altered when the device opens.

SO... I bought a POOP ton of S-pens in my day, literally probably have 50 floating around here somewhere as we speak. ANYWAYS... the different color S Pens from the Note 9 and on, had a really cool little easter egg built in. When using the screen off note or whatever they were calling it; you pull out a Red S-Pen the ink would be red. Pull out a Blue S-Pen the ink would be Blue. So on and so forth. Black though would have white ink. Kind of neat little easter egg that I bet not a lot of people knew about. Obviously the S-Pen had to be one of those that you had to charge to use their Air Gesture gimmicks that never worked well on any of the devices I've tried them on, including the current Tab S7 Plus I use to this day.

On the other hand, I like having an option whether should I use 2nd slot for SD card or another SIM. Can't agree about curved display though - I really like both visualy and when holding phone in hands. Indeed, for someone it can be annoying having curved borders while writing with your S pen, but I see those borders as the way of keeping you within the screen AND having visually excelling style.

Video idea: I'd love a comparison of 3-5 year old smartphones from different brands (each one with the latest available OS).

I'm currently looking to upgrade my almost 5 year old LG G6 (R.I.P LG). Even though I love Android's customizability and tinkering headroom, I'm considering switching to iPhone just because of the long software support and the fact that older iPhones don't seem to turn into a stuttering useless paperweight when updating the OS. Longevity is a deciding factor in my opinion, not just because using phones for longer is better for the environment, but it also puts the high upfront cost of an iPhone into perspective and could actually make it a better value option if you get two more years of (pleasurable) use out of it compared to an Android phone.

The Ultra looks sooooooo good, I freaking love the new camera design, it looks sleek af. I miss your HDR videos tho 😭

As someone who upgraded a few months ago to an S21, I'm still not over the lack of an SD card either, it just makes no sense to have removed it. I'm also surprised samsung havent considered bringing back the fingerprint sensor on the back, maybe it's because I've gone from an S9, but the sensor felt a lot quicker than the under the screen ones.

@pixels_per_inch 2 года назад

Same here, I missed it quite a lot on my S21, I underestimate the amount of storage I needed and transferring all the data through a USB cable is a pain.

@@pixels_per_inch I've personally had to go for a google drive plan and it pains me every time the payment goes out. The newer phones we seem to be paying for a lot less than 2 or 3 years ago.

So they can charge you for more storage. When I had androids the sd card was so good for storing photos and what not.

My end game phone is an s22 ultra with the fingerprint sensor on the back or somewhere good ergonomically like on the note 9. Ideally with the same great display as always, but uninterrupted by a camera setup. Under the screen camera would be the only way really. There's not too many options, so we have to wait for that tech to get better I guess... Oh and SD card slot, MST and IR.

@adamgreenhill110 2 года назад

@@HOBOsnake Only the SD card slot for me. Why do you want fingerprint scanner on the back? It's slower to reach, and you can't unlock whilst on a table. The S22 Ultra fingerprint scanner is instant. Literally the MOMENT you touch it, it's unlocked. It doesn't get any better than that.

I've fast charged my S9 for 3 years, coming on 4. I know it isn't as fast as recents now. Yes, the battery is degrading now and doesn't run for even half a day haha but it was probably time I had a new phone or battery by now anyway. The screen has also burnt in quite badly, which I didn't think would happen on recent Samsung displays as my old S1 had it as bad as this.

@shohussaini 2 года назад

I have screen burn in on my s21 ultra. I thought samsung would've rectified the issue in recent years but I guess not.

OLED burn-in is inevitable, no matter what you do to prevent it. My A50 already has a few burned in spots, like the status bar battery icon, even though I try to be really cautious.

@TheKelz 2 года назад

@@GamerBoy705_yt Samsung phones are notorious for burn ins. Take iPhone X for example, I know many people who bought the phone on the launch day and there are still no burn ins on their devices nearly 5 years later.

@@TheKelz What the hell is everyone doing to cause their screens to burn in? Running them at peak brightness all effing day or something? I have had samsung phones since the S7 and not a single damn one of them has ended up with burn in

I've already ordered my S22 Ultra. But I am wondering how the speakers are. Nobody talks about them in their reviews. If they're not great, I also ordered the Tab S8+ which I'm sure will have great speakers. I even got a 25% discount on it because I ordered it together with the S22 Ultra.

Thank you for the review Linus. As a note 20 ultra owner, I just may switch to the s22 ultra now. 8oz is half a pound but hell. Us tech guys have perfected muscles in our hands to.... Better hold our phones no matter what weight and still type on a keyboard one handed. Lol

@americansmark Год назад

I've had my S22 Ultra since day one. I've had about every major phone out there at this point, and this is by far my favorite. Only thing close would be the iPhone 7+ I briefly had, but which met a sudden, wet demise when I assumed it was rated for swimming. I assumed wrong. But I can't think of anything else I'd want from it. It's powerful, loud, responsive, has a great pen, and plenty of real estate for my sausage fingers. Also, it charges insanely fast. I have the super fast charger and it will fully charge from 30% in about 45 minutes. Even while watching RU-vid or playing games, it will charge in an hour.
