+/- camera improvement ( not so good as can be )

No adapter or headphones
on August 15, 2022
Posted by: vasa
from Houston
Expertise:Intermediate
It's ridiculous why it doesn't come with adapter for charging and there is no headphones too. You have to buy them separately but the phone costs almost the price of laptop or more.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi Vasa,
Thank you for your review of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. We appreciate all feedback as we continue to bring our consumers the best in product design and functionality. 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. If you need any assistance, please feel free to reach out to Samsung Support, attached below. Thank you for being a valued customer. –Bethany

Good phone but HORRIBLE BATTERY LIFE
on August 25, 2022
Posted by: josephthedreamer
from California
Expertise:Intermediate
I really wanted to love this phone and keep it, but just couldn't stand the poor battery life. Lasted only half a day and took too long to charge even with a 30W fast charger. Hardly could I survive a whole day of normal usage with this phone. Its obviously a downgrade from the S21 Ultra
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Speakers suck compare to the S21 Ultra. It overheats on video calls. Battery does not last as long as the S21 Ultra. Would not recommend.

Lost a customer
on November 21, 2022
Posted by: nickname990099
Expertise:Intermediate
I have been a loyal Samsung fan for years. But this will be the last Samsung I buy. I have no problems with the phone itself, but rather with the software. They made a deal with google and removed the video calling software. Now if you want to make a video call, you have to use google dou. I am not a dou user, I am not interested in using dou, and no one I know uses dou. Many people do not like how google insinuates itself into our lives, now Samsung made a deal with them, to force us to allow even further into our lives, without even ginving the option to opt out, and use to the old video calling software. Samsung, you have lost my respect and my loyalty. I will avoid samsung products in the future, not just phones, but all samsung products.

Doesn't work with Android Auto
on March 5, 2022
Posted by: Answer
Doesn't work with Android Auto. This seems to be a widespread issue. Also, the phone feels like a lead brick in comparison to the Note 10+ I switched from.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
