Great Phone!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My S22 Ultra stays on me practically 24/7 for personal and business communication, social media, book reading, research, writing, streaming content, and video creation/editing.
I've used Samsung phones exclusively since the Note 2, and other than the battery life (I'm a heavy data user), the current lack of headphone jack (and the fact that the phone won't ring audibly when connected to wired earbuds), and my own need for a camera tutorial for maximum photo impact, I LOVE them, and can't see myself using any other series of phones.

Nice device but a few flaws

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had my S22 Ultra since shortly after it was released. Overall, I'm pleased with the device as it is fast and does what I need it to do. That said, I have two complaints - the camera and the battery.
I have young, active children. They're often running around or doing some sort of activity where I'm promoted to take photos of them. This camera of this phone takes poor action shots. Photos of the kids running, passing a ball, moving in a play are usually blurry. I also have an iPhone 13 XS Max and I know to turn to that device if I want a usable action photo. It's irritating because the Ultra is my primary phone.
The battery life is a second chink in the Ultra's armor. At the end of the day, if I haven't topped off my devices, my S22 is usually in the 40-50% battery range while my iPhone is still on the 70-80% range. Yes, the Ultra is my daily driver but even on days when both phones are used minimally, the battery on the iPhone outperforms the Samsung. I get nervous when my battery gets down into the 40s so the difference makes me feel as if the Ultra would be quick to leave me in a bind if I don't watch battery life. Even 20-30 minutes of scrolling news sites in the morning depletes 10-15% of battery. That's far from ideal.
The S22 Ultra is a decent device and a good sidekick. I wish its deficiencies weren't as severe because they weaken an otherwise very good device. If I knew what I knew now, I probably would've waited for the S23 Ultra.

This product has great features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy S22 Ultra is astonishingly capable in almost all aspects, from camera to productivity, and you probably won't need to consider upgrading for years.”
Pros
S Pen is convenient and highly accurateVersatile camera takes great photosThe latest processor for powerLong software supportBeautiful high refresh rate screen
Cons
Not very fast battery chargingLarge and heavy
The integrated camera module from the Galaxy S22 and S22+ has not been included in the design here, and the camera lenses are all individually set in the back panel. It’s minimalist and quite pretty, but also prone to being messy as dust and lint gather around each one. But still a great camera phone. In fact, it’s still one of the very best camera phones you can get, providing greater detail and more natural and accurate colors
The Galaxy S22 Ultra’s massive screen is glorious, showing stunning colors, deep blacks, and all the features you need — including HDR10+ and Dolby Atmos — for a wonderful multimedia experience. Sound is delivered through stereo speakers, and there’s a helpful equalizer feature to tune the audio to your liking
So ita definitely all the phone you’ll need for years!

Everything I Hoped For!
on March 13, 2023
Posted by: SmolFloof
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra was exactly what I was looking for! Most of last year I found myself spending quite a lot of time playing mobile games in my free time when I was out and about, and there were a few high quality titles I was looking forward to so I decided to upgrade my phone to the best thing I could find on the market to ensure that I could reliably run the games I wished to play in coming months. This device however far exceeded my expectations. Every game that I played could run in max settings at a phenomenal 120fps. I could just as well multi-task and run multiple games at once if I wanted with no issues at all. I'm very glad to have purchased this device, there are are so many features ranging from customization to accessibility if not the sheer power that made it very much worth it for me. I absolutely love the Galaxy series and look forward to see what future models bring!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll keep this short and sweet. Went from the fruit phone to galaxies and never went back. Was a huge fan of the notes but this steps right in where notes left off. Love gaming on it a watching videos.

A Great, But Not Perfect Android Experience
on March 14, 2023
Posted by: Techiverse
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this phone for over a year now. Incredible design and hardware. I opted for the 256GB model for the additional RAM and I can't say that I have reached a point where I would want more than 12GB of RAM; you can comfortably leave your apps open. The camera photo quality is near the top of the food chain, but video performance still leaves some things to be desired, namely stabilization and more granular video settings. Samsung pushes out timely updates for their flagships which should be a given. I honestly miss the S21 Ultra I used to have though because it had a more manageable, less boxy design, as well as better speakers. I'm not sure how or why the speakers on the S22 Ultra got worse, but do keep that in mind. It is a noticeable difference. Overall though, a great daily workhorse phone.

Powerful and Versatile

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My S22 Ultra has made my daily work and routines organized and reduced my stress. Many of my functions and essential tasks involve the usage of this device.
I greatly appreciate how capable it is at whatever tasks I throw at it. That includes taking photos of my trips, recording my gameplay using its preinstalled screen recorder, and implementing routines that I customized myself. I really appreciate having the S pen always readily available for any purposes. I mainly love the screen captures I can do with it.
The phone is extremely fast and responses are instant. But the battery life is a bit shorter than what I'd like. I upgraded from the Note 8 but the S22 ultra seems to either have equal or less battery life than the former. Overall S22 ultra experience has been a pleasure and I highly recommend it since it charges ridiculously fast with the supercharger. My concern with battery life has become insignificant due to fast charge. I love the phone and I hope the upcoming generations have extremely long battery life.
