Bought phone 5 weeks ago and wish i had not the first one out of box they had issues setting up and i questioned if it should be this difficult and such a long process and he said sometimes. iT WAS DEFECTIVE so after arguing with them and 4 differnt phone calls to ATT they gave me a new one well this one sometimes it will charge all the way and sometimes it will not it depends on its mood i guess, but thinking no way to have 2 bad phones i bought new charger and it makes no difference the S21 i traided in was because after a samsung update it did not always work but it was out of its warranty so they said too bad.

Larmo49, we appreciate you taking time to provide your feedback to us on your Samsung Galaxy S22. If you haven’t done so already, this device is capable of wireless charging if you are finding it insufficient when plugged in to a power source. You can also double check the settings of your device in regards to power as it might be set to a certain threshold. The Samsung Support Team is always available to help you troubleshoot your device if those are not the case as well. Thank you for being a Samsung customer. –Elizabeth Samsung Support smsng.us/Samsung-Support Samsung Community smsng.us/Samsung-Community Facebook smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger Twitter smsng.us/Twitter-Messages
I've been using this new phone now for 4 days. The very first day I used it, after maybe 6 hours I turned music on and it came out playing like I had dropped my phone in a puddle of water, all crackly. This has happened to me several times since then, for no reason. Having a speaker that works is literally the only thing I am very concerned about in a phone. I listen to a lot of music and generally talk on speaker phone. This is a huge disappointment. Also battery life isn't anything like I was hoping it would be.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

A few weeks now and all is good. Went from s21 Ultra, as im sick of easy to break curved edge designs and the fact that the screen remains unprotected, even with case. The 22 plus is very fast, and battery life on par with the 21 ultra. Features, speakers, camera, phone connection and use all very good. Im very pleased with this phone so far and will likely hold onto for as long as possible.
I bought this phone year ago and everything is fine(camera, battery life), but suddenly often getting bad sound due to creaking speakers . need to restart the phone very often now but for last few weeks creaking sound stays for hours.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as my first Samsung phone (and flagship) and it didn't disappoint! Display is vibrant and amazing, responsiveness is neat and cameras are excellent for most situations. So happy with all the added customizations Samsung's One UI adds on top!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have been using this for a month! Phone is snappy, great display anything and everything you expect from a top end phone. Love the compactness of the phone...but the battery life is disappointing
