I have had this phone for just two weeks, so I am still learning all the possibilities and features, but so far, it is just what I expected, and I am glad I made the purchase. The Camera is great, though there is a little stability issue when you get to the 100x zoom, but as a photographer, I have figured that part out, as it is similar to having a large telephoto lens on a Camera.
I have never had an S pen before, so I am still learning what I can do, but I like it. I also like the fact that I can take notes on the screen when it's black and not have to deal with opening the Note App in order to take notes; I am still learning all of that, but I love it. This phone is a big jump for me as I have had an S8+ for the past 6 years, so this is a fun new toy. I probably should have bought the 512GB, as I may find myself needing more storage as I learn how to do more, especially on the photography and note end of the things.
Got the phone last month and I like it a lot moving from a galaxy note 8. But just be warned that it can not connect to some bluetooth devices, it just won't be able to detect and or cannot be detected by some devices. Like it works great with my wireless earbuds, but won't connect or be detected by my prius c (2015). Maybe just doesn't like old bluetooth? Other than that, it's a solid phone.

Too many issues with apps. S pen doesn't work as it should. I do not even like the photo quality versus the S21 Ultra. The over all smoothness of apps seems off

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had the phone for a few days, following the Z Fold3 and then Galaxies prior to that. The phone is beautifully designed, essentially a Note. However, I have had some issues in the first few days, such as unresponsiveness of call end and freezing at times. I will keep an eye on it.
Despite these issues, Galaxy phones always seem to improve with each generation. Overall though, this phone is of great value for the price.
The S22 changed the orientation of the vibration motor so it is useless without also using a watch which still vibrates properly or a kickstand. Without these I would have returned the phone. Please correct this in future models.
