Samsung Galaxy S22: Everything You Need to Know

Samsung previously teased its latest Galaxy S22 series at the Galaxy Unpacked 2022 on 9th February, and now, it’s finally here. The series consists of the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22 Plus and Galaxy S22 Ultra with brand new features, an ultra-fast processor chip, and an even more powerful camera.

And all three models have different features and aspects that could make it difficult for you to pick one over the other. To help you decide, let’s look at what the Galaxy S22 offers and why you should buy it.

Samsung Galaxy S22: What’s New?

The Galaxy S22 is perfect for everyday use at work or for entertainment; Samsung’s newest phone is designed to enhance your daily life. Available in four colours, the S22 has a smaller screen and battery than the S21, perfect for those who prefer small, hand-friendly sized phones.

Design and Display

The Galaxy S22 comes in Phantom Black, Phantom White, Pink Gold or Green. It has a flat display, punch-hole cameras in the centre of the screen, and a new contoured camera block with three rear sensors at the back and rounded corners. Samsung Galaxy S22 cameras

Its design is not that much different from the S21. However, one small change is that the back of the phone is made from glass, making the phone feel a little more premium.

The Galaxy S22 has a 6.1-inch display, FHD+ resolution and 240Hz touch input rate. Its stunning 120Hz Infinity-O Displays are built with Dynamic AMOLED 2X with Vision Booster technology for high outdoor visibility, keeping the view clear in bright daylight or at night.

Samsung’s most durable phone to date, the Galaxy S22, is protected by the Gorilla Glass Victus+ for ultimate protection from drops and scratches. Alongside that, the S22 is protected all around by Samsung’s Armor Aluminium, their most robust aluminium frame.

Samsung Galaxy S22 cameras

The Galaxy S22 comes with three cameras, its most significant selling point. There is the 50MP main lens, 12MP ultrawide lens, 10MP 3x telephoto lens, and the 10MP front camera to take the perfect selfie. Like all Samsung products, its cameras are pro-grade quality for you to take excellent photos.

A new feature in the Galaxy S22 is ‘Nightography’. It lets you take clearer and more detailed photos and videos at night, and the Super Noise Solution adjusts the background noise in your videos for better quality footage. The Super HDR feature also makes your pictures brighter and more colourful.

Samsung Galaxy S22 Battery and Software

The Galaxy S22 has an intelligent battery that adapts to how you use your phone. That way, you can use its 3,700 mAh battery for 24 hours. Although some may find it too little, the S22 makes up for it with a fast 25W charging speed and 15W wireless charging.

All three phones in the Galaxy 22 series are installed with Android 12, One UI 4 with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 CPU. What sets the S22 series apart from the rest is that Samsung is offering up to four years of software support for the S22 series.

Samsung Galaxy S22 Performance and Software

Samsung is sticking with its two-chipset policy for the S22 series: the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 for those in the US or Asia, and Samsung’s own Exynos 2200 for the rest of the world.

While the Exynos chip is less powerful than the Snapdragon, you won’t notice the difference. Both chipsets are of excellent quality that’ll give you loads of juice for gaming, video editing or AI tasks.

All the Galaxy S22 series phones offer 5G support and both sub-6GHz and mmWave. These features make it easier for you to get a handset compatible with your carrier of choice.

Coupled with the fact that the phone arrives with two options of storage (128GB and 256GB) and an additional 8GB RAM, it is the perfect phone for those who like to carry their best memories with them everywhere.

Final Thoughts

The highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S22 offers many features that make every day exciting. With its new display, professional-grade cameras, all-day battery and the fastest chip ever, the Galaxy S22 is one of Samsung’s latest reasonably priced flagship phones you can get in 2022.
