It's "Ok".

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this the day of the launch. It has a lot of bugs that still aren't fixed, the battery does not last as long as advertised, and there is no sd card slot. Simple things that need to be fixed but several things, and it gets annoying. I miss my S21 Ultra.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great phone except for POOR BATTERY LIFE
on April 14, 2022
Posted by: jdgrover

Expertise:Expert
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Traded in my s21 ultra for the 22 ultra and overall theyre pretty comparible. 21 had MUCH better battery life though. Have my settings set to shut down charging to extend the life of the battery and i have yet to make it whole day without having to charge to make it through. According to Accubattery, based on 83 charge sessions with 3892% charged sessions they estimate my battery capacity to be 4422mAH and its supposed to be 5000!?? Pretty dissappointed in it. Just being honest Samsung...
I would recommend this to a friend!

Greatest feeling smartphone available.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung S22 Ultra has singlehandedly kept me as a Samsung customer. I've been wanting to switch to a different phone as the Galaxy line was getting too samey to most of the other popular phones on the market. Then they introduced the S22 ultra. every single color available on launch day was beautiful, I didn't know which to pick. Eventually i settled for the Green option. This to me is the first step before selecting a phone, how it looks like in person. It passed the eye check, looked as beautiful in person as it did online, but that's not all. All the reviews just didn't do it justice, the phone is amazing. The next physical thing that i noticed was the weight. Last year's flagship was heavy and felt like a danger when reading an E-book from your bed before bed. This time, the S-22 Ultra has an evenly distributed weight compared to the S-22 Ultra's camera heavy frame. As I said, the design is beautiful, moving on from the traditional shape of the Galaxy series to more of a note with slightly curved edges. This look to me still screams futuristic, what with all the cameras and a lack of bezel (even with the front facing camera's forgettable circle at the top of the screen). The cameras allow you to take some amazing pictures, wether up close or far away, the videos you can record are of beautiful quality, for a phone, and the low light filter is astounding, just as advertised. The display is, as always with Samsung, the best in the game. The S Pen is a fun feature that most may just see as a gimmick, but for me it's a fun addition that has allowed me to pick up drawing in my spare time, something I've always wanted to do.
Overall, this phone does it all, has it all, and is all you'll ever need. I wouldn't dare to call it "Samsung's Magnum Opus" as I know that this isn't even close to being their last great phone, but it certainly feels that way. This, to me, is the most fun and pleasure I've ever had with a smartphone since they first came out when I was a kid.
I would recommend this to a friend!
