First review at the end.
Have had major problems getting signals, kept getting No Sim Card messages. My wife had to call the dealer because there is no support available in a reasonable time. Dealer had us reset the Network settings, so far, this has helped.
Just tried to use the Paypal credit card adapter and found that there is NO HEADPHONE JACK!
Have had no luck with Bluetooth speakers in my pickup, they crackle and breakup, so, I use wired ones and now I cannot use them either!
Previous Review:
Not as good as our old S10 Purchased on May 27, 2022. Good phone but does not pick up signals as good as my S10 did in the same places. It is difficult for me to turn the phone off or restart it because you have to push two buttons simultaneously. Samsung took a long step backwards with this one.
Phone is slower loading apps than the S10 too.
What I do like is that there is no Bixby button. Now, it they would make it so we can uninstall all Bixby and other pre-loaded apps that we do not need or want.
Samsung and Android do not care about their customers.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thanks again for being a Samsung customer.
I am coming from a Galaxy 9+ phone. The only reason I traded was because of security issues. That being said... This is not the best phone! They do not make these phones for average people. Most people don't care about high-tech things. We just want what we are used to. Such as the Led notification light, the power button on one side, and the volume on the other. The screenshot being able to be taken with just the power key. How many people can honestly say they can 1. screenshot in the first try (without turning your volume down) 2. be able to power your phone off again in the first try? I have only had this phone up and running for a week. So far I have not "heard" any notifications. You have just made everything so complicated. Also, when you do the smartswitch...no that simple. Still have to sign in to ALL those accounts. MAKE SURE you remember those user names and passwords! During the next update - please change/correct the screenshot thing and the powerdown thing atleast. So far the battery life is not that great. Thank you
I would recommend this to a friend!

Purchased Galaxy S22 because my beloved Galaxy 8 started acting funky. Even though it was starting to act up, it still worked better than the Brand New S22. Sooo wish I still had the Samsung 8. I really feel that the pop-ups, presumptuous advertising, and unwanted mind-numbing games that are constantly thrown onto the S22 - without consent - are obtrusive and interfering when I want to text or make a call.

Oustanding replacement for my S9, in terms of size and performance. The battery is not bad, it's a new phone and it's learning your usage, give it a minute and you won't be disappointed. Enjoy.
Terrible battery life should have kept my s21 this is a epic fail!

I LOVE all of the Samsung phones I have ever used. I have had many but held onto my S10+ for longer than normal. Upgrading to the S22 almost felt like a step back. Very poor battery life thus far (I am told it will learn my usage and become slightly better) and not much new to offer. Learning the new button position was simple and the build quality is still great, but the S22 just seems very basic. I wanted to spring for the Ultra and probably should have but was limited to options since this line is provided by my employer. All in all this phone is still a Samsung and is far superior to its competitors but is still missing some things that could be improved. The battery is really really bad.
I would recommend this to a friend!
