poor battery life

ok, i'll keep it short. It's a great phone with a mediocre battery. So just to have an idea, i used to have the old Note 10, bought new few years ago. my new Galaxy's S22 ultra battery holds as much as my old's Note 10, 4 years after o got it and heavily used it. We are talking in the best case scenario of you don't use it much about a day and a half and with heavy use about a day. so, judge for yourself. I thought maybe i got a bad product, but my best friend got also a Galaxy S22 ultra and i've got the same feedback from him. For a Samsung lover and and Android guy for life i'm having a hard time writing these but i just hope next time Samsung comes with a new phone that costs an arm and a leg at least make that battery last or make the battery interchangeable. Until then i'll go for the cheapest phones that will do the job, since i don't wont to throw away in the garbage a computer - this is what the phones are now - just because it ran out of battery and the battery can't hold charge for long.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Should you need more assistance, please feel free to get back to us via the following options:
Let's start off with the good. Samsung makes quality devices and this one is no exception. I really like the display and the s-pen. This is my first time having a galaxy that provides the s-pen and I find myself using it often. I have found that battery life is excellent. It's on par with my previous s21 ultra and I can easily get two days of use out of it. YouTube reviews are so one sided sometimes and people get caught up with specs and features that we forget that those people arent "normal" folks like us. They review tech for a living. If you're an average user like myself, you'll get great battery life. I have used iphone most of my life since I purchased my first phone. Samsung just does it better. The camera.......oh lawd. It's amazing. I've used the telephoto feature so much! It works for nature shots incredibly well and for close ups of my kids playing. The bad: not all apps are optimized for this phone yet. I own my own business and use my phone almost exclusively. One of my apps caused the phone to flicker and go dark several times. Completely random. But other than that I haven't had any issues.
If you're in the fence, do yourself a favor and purchase this device! You won't regret it.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Downgrade from previous models.

I regrettably decided to trade-in my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and quickly realized it was a mistake. From my initial inspection, the phones are identical in size, which was not a big deal for me; however, this phone does not have the option to expand storage memory as it DOES NOT HAVE A MICRO SD CARD SLOT. This is a MAJOR downgrade. Additionally, I've had glitches and dust in camera problems since I received the phone. In a recent software update the phone froze and had to be serviced by Samsung. My rating is so low because this is NOT AN UPGRADE FROM PREVIOUS MODELS.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this a month ago for my sister and this really a good phone… the camera is really good, take it from someone who used iphone. There is no lags and the boxy look really makes it a head turner
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great speed comes great phone

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a good phone with lots of space for apps and pictures. The quality overall is great work well on every occasion. Screen is nice and bright at 1750 nits, can see the screen in direct sunlight with no issues. The camera could use some more work when changing zooms to be smoother but overall great quality.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this phone last week and omg I am in love with it. The new s pen features and it's fast response to the screen is unbelievable. Especially the new camera upgrades. I was able to take pictures like never before.
