It's an OK phone I guess. Don't find it nearly as user friendly as my old Motorola phone. Doesn't seem to work with a screen protector, won't register your fingerprint, so that's annoying. Of course it doesn't come with any user guide but found one on-line. New "fast charger" cable isn't compatible with standard USB so I needed to buy a new charger. Wanted 5G which my old phone didn't have, got talked into getting this phone. In hindsight, I should have passed.

Hi Paul, We appreciate you taking the time to review the Samsung Galaxy S22. We value all critiques as we strive to innovate and improve on the design and functionality of our products. Continuing what we started with the Samsung Galaxy S21 series, earphones and a charger plug are no longer included in the box because Samsung wants to minimize the impact our products have on the environment. Samsung believes the removal of earphones and charger plugs from our in-box device packaging can help address the growing e-waste problem and unnecessary duplication of these items. Existing Galaxy users are encouraged to continue using their current earphones and charging plug, while new users will need to purchase this separately. Concerning the touch screen, try to increase the touch sensitivity by going into Settings>tap Display > Touch sensitivity to enable. I’m glad you located the user manual on line, and there is also a way to view it on your actual device. Navigate to Settings, then swipe to and tap Tips and Help or Tips and user manual, and then tap User manual. The user manual will open via your internet browser. I’ve attached a link to Samsung Support, if you need any further assistance, please reach out to them. Thank you for being a valued customer. –Bethany smsng.us/Samsung-Support

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I needed a smaller device this time and this gives me all the perks of a larger device I a compact version.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone has a great camera, also love the battery life. It's big enough to be handheld but not bothersome. Sure recommend.
