Galaxy S22 Review
on December 5, 2022
Posted by: gcs22
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good with the S22, coming straight from an S8. Couple of things/issues to mention so far:
At first was bit awkward having volume buttons and Bixby/power button on the same side. Also needed to change settings for the power button because initially holding it down went to Bixby. Having a USB-C to USB-C cable is great but at the moment can only use that cable to charge the phone when plugging into my laptop as there is no wall charger in the box. Would have preferred a USB-C to USB-C A cable, many public places still have USB-A ports for charging phones, seems like an attempt to get people to buy a wall charger. If you have a USB-C to USB-A cable and the traditional USB-A port wall charger, it's good enough.
Can understand the disappointment with the battery, feels like it drains quickly at times but have set up certain Routines to where it is slightly better than out of the box as well as tinkering with notifications and Settings like changing Motion Smoothness to Standard (60 Hz). Hopefully, can keep the battery healthy.
Modes and Routines: Please continue to build on this, probably one of the most useful things I've seen on a smartphone. Can save people clicks when performing certain actions. Can set up routines for charging at night to help improve overall battery life, have Do Not Disturb on when in a specific app, and many others.
Going to get a 256 GB USB-C flash drive as I screen record in certain apps where videos can reach over 6 minutes and hit 1 GB in file size of recording at highest quality, regret not getting the 256 GB version but getting a USB-C flash drive may work out as it will cost less. So storage space can get eaten up quickly, and need to make sure of the video/image quality when recording and taking screenshots.
Overall, performance has been good, phone is smooth and have not encountered any issues even when gaming. Not a big pictures/camera guy so not going to comment on it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Phone has great specs, awesome screen, and smaller form factor so it is comfortable to hold in hands for a long time. Another impressive product from a samsung.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] About this phone when it first came out I'm trading it in now for the flip for but it's a great phone overall It does have its days sometimes it goes on and off by itself sometimes it loses service sometimes it says I don't have a plan but overall it's been a good phone
I would recommend this to a friend!
