I traded up to the S25 Ultra & except for the stylus and slightly better camera, not much is different from the S22+. I haven't yet used the stylus & not sure I will, so not sure that was worth it. TBD whether the camera is much better than an iPhone.
Too many issues with phone and watch. Syncing up. Miss calls messages etc.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This phone has a lot of bloatware: upfront messy Ai& google all over the place ,att branding , Poor battery life .. 5000 mah should last me 6-7 days it's only 2-3 days maybe, pictures are altered( still poor), the camera lens isnt flush( moon/ sun looks like blotches of light still, volume has to be tweaked alot( due to lack of proper sound software. No sd card so you have to use a cloud or bog down your phone. I do like they got rid of the edge mess and built the phone. Much better. The phone is bbbulky. Hopefully it should last another 5 + years .The only reason i had to get a new phone the Samsung galaxy 20 ultra note 5 g phone back was spliting from thr r e st of the frame. This is the eason why I gave this a 3.

Turned my phone in for the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra - 512GB - Titanium Silverblue. I love it! I did everything through the internet and it couldn't have been easier. Didn't have to deal with going into the store and that made it so much more enjoyable. My new phone is so nice and so much easier to use. Lots of wonderful new nice features. If you're thinking of switching, dont hesitate. You wont be disappointed.
Battery life less than i had. Not what i hoped for
