Everyone complains about the battery on the s22 but if you're spending 5 plus hours on your phone and that's not for work, you need a life. Put the damn phone down and go get laid.
I was really struggling with this decision. Even with hours of research I was unsure. You gave me the clearest understanding of what the differences are in practical terms so that I could finally feel like I am making the best selection for me. Thank you so much!
Great review, I decided on the S22 Plus, the 22 was just too small and the Ultra which is a Note is just too big, boxy and it doesn't feel good in the hand. Why Samsung said they discontinued the Note and called it the Ultra in the 22 is beyond me? Thanks again, the review helped a lot.
Traded my Note 9 in for the Plus, and loving the experience so far. The flat screen is a joy, and despite it being heavier than my husband's S21 FE, it feels much better balanced and comfortable in hand. I'll cry over missing out on the Ultras fabulous zoom for the next four years (assuming the battery lasts that long), until a Flip comes out with better battery life, camera and dust protection.
I've seen like a thousand reviews about this smartphone and I can surely tell that yours is the most objective and precisely, not talking much, but just what we want to now
Great job. Really liked the focus on real world performance vs. spec sheet comparison. Really appreciate the camera review, was about to go all in on the Ultra, but that noise/softening is a no go for me if it's going to impact like that. Question - Is that only for the main lens, because the 3x and 10x photos for the Ultra did look very sharp ?
Thank you! It’s the main lens and also the selfie lens for certain things like video, weirdly. But the telephoto lenses are fantastic. No issues with those and the camera quality is awesome for zoomed shots!
I've had the Ultra for a few months and decided to try the S22+ for the flat screen and lighter feel... I'm sorry but I had to go back to the Ultra as the 1440p huge screen is just beautiful... I couldn't downgrade to the 1080p smaller screen of the S22+
I never got the curved edge screens. Love it that the S22 has a flat screen. I can put screen protectors on now that properly adhere to the surface of the screen. I've just upgraded from an S10 and it's a nice jump.
@@DENVEROUTDOORMAN Not in my experience. When you try to put a tempered glass screen protector on it, they never fit perfectly and it does not look very good.
I miss the old days when samsung used to give you everything in the phone including expandable storage, wqhd, headphone jack, etc... remember the s10 5g?
I've just made up my mind to upgrade from the S20FE to the S22+ after watching this video. Wanted to go for the compact S22 but battery life is huge concern for me.
I have to regular s22 with snapdragon and with the most recent update i am comfortably getting 5 and a half hours screen on time day in day out which is enough for me because i love its small form factor coming from the regular s10
I currently have the Galaxy A71 5G and wasn't sure what to upgrade to next. This video really helps me make a decision and I will go with the S22+. Very detailed and concise. Thank you so much for making this.
As a Galaxy and phone nerd your review is by far the best on TH-cam! And i watch all the popular phone channel. First time watching and your information the specs on paper with your testing and personal experience checks all my boxes when trying to decide on a phone. S21 ultra has usbc port issues and the phone has been acting a little buggy so its time for an upgrade.
S22+ for me, ultra is just too big for me. My limit is S22+. I don't want an S Pen. Also the S22+ is the only phone below 160 mm(dimension height) form factor, Still has a screen size of 6.6 inches. uniform thin bezels, no curved display. So all these make me love the S22+.
another great review, very well done and specially part about soften part of photos taken by Ultra, many reviewers not mentioning a word about it and it is one of the reasons I decided to return Ultra and take S22+, best decision. I can only recommend + version, It is pleasure to use it.
Thank you so much! It was very noticeable to me so I couldn't not mention it really. I've even waited and spent a couple of months with the phones (and had some updates) to iron out early problems and still the Ultra has some issues. Just thought people should know!
@@TheThearon96 I'm happy with it so far, camera performance is great, battery ok as well, and size in the hand is much more comfortable, one think after change from ultra is to get used to with the weight, phone is so light 😀
Hey, thanks for the comparison. Between the three phones probably the best I've seen on TH-cam. I just can't decide between the regular s22 and the plus model
In my opinion, nothing is more important than battery life. I never thought phones being minicomputers was a good idea. I do understand updating the towers for reception. But phones from 20 years ago are still better if you ask me. Especially when it comes to the battery life and charge. Computers and phones needed to kept separate from each other.
That's good to know! I saw some reviews of the SD models and thought I could see this a tiny bit, but no way near as bad. It certainly seems to be affecting mostly Exynos models so far!
The best review on S22 all the models, beats all the other TH-cam channels on comparison handsdown. Appreciate your explanation on the smaller details .
Subbed! Ive been watching tech videos for years and this is just clean and straightforward. Def a channel worth recommending when people need to decide which phone they need
The battery shrink completely killedthe S22. The plus isn't bad but every review says the sot is cut wayyyy too short and unlivable for the reviewer . I have the ultra and have zero complaints . I bought a case that rises up close on the sides so the curves aren't a bother. I turned off everything Samsung and never logged in to my Samsung account and disabled everything Bixby possible. Now I have a great Android phone with less clutter and does everything I want and more , without Bixby bloat .
Haha, the Samsung bloat is still very real! Battery life has been alright for me, but definitely disappointing vs last year. Glad you're liking the Ultra though!
I been really enjoying this S22 ultra an really amazed with how long the battery last for me up at 4am and put on charging at the next morning 12 or 1am coming from LG I was always putting my phone on the charger! And the camera is really nice on Samsung I'm happy I purchased this... and always had 6.8 size it feels real good to me! Thank you for for sharing this...blessings... ✨️🙌🏾✨️
I'm currently looking to upgrade and was going for the Ultra (love the S pen idea!) but now re-thinking it with the boxly look and size. Definately need to hands on all these, but either way it will be an upgrade from my S8! LOL
i watched plenty of videos on s22 series. your the best. now i have clear my doubts and i decided to buy s22 regular model. thank you very much from India❤
@@insidetechltd Reply Bro,The way you simplified things was awesome. Well I'll be buying a new phone after the launch of S23 Series,but can you tell the Cons of S22+ just for comparison.
For people saying the battery life is abysmal on the base s22 mine is great. Just on mobile data right now I have 1:45 minutes and am at 79% so I don't understand why some people only get 3-4 hours of sot. Only thing I can think is that maybe they rushed the pre-orders and therefore sent faulty units to people. I also have the s21 and I love the s22 better. I'm glad I didn't listen to people not telling me to upgrade
@@insidetechltd I get around the 8-9 hours of sot. Apparently they had a low yield of 35% of chips that passed hence why some people's devices aren't good
Hi! Great video, i have a question. Considering i would need to use mostly one of these phones for doing miniature painting videos (mostly close ups) would you still reccomend the s22? Thank you
Thank you! I'll be choosing between the S22 and S22+ based on how it feels in my hands. Super review! I couldn't understand the differences when I tried to read about them, but you made it easy to comprehend.
The s22ultra is great, but I don't like the squared front of the phone and the screen's curves. However the back is dope looking. The s22+ is my choice though.
Went to visit Samsung store and I am very amazed with S22 look, size and how well it fits into my hand. It weights only 1/4 compared to my current phone (my wrists hurt after prolonged use because of my small hand). Very excited to get one
in my opinion they should've kept last years sizes for the bigger batteries because they made a lot of internals more battery hungry (exynos 2200 etc.) I actually bought an S21+ around 2 weeks ago just because of the smaller battery size and price on the S22+
Greetings from Argentina, excellent analysis. Do you think that the resolution of the ultra qhd justifies the purchase over the s22plus? Do you notice the real difference in that section? Thank you
Hello! No I don't think so. It is something I notice but since I work in tech I'm also looking out for differences like this. You do eventually forget about the resolution so I don't think it's a big issue overall. I think the S22+ is better overall value that you can ignore the resolution!
Very interesting. In some comparisons to the pixel 6, the ultra was sharper than the pixel, while the pixel was sharper than the regular 22. Perhaps some updates had occurred after all. My main question is how fast are you able to snap photos, will the phone keep up (shutter lag, I think it's called)? Can the af track people?
The only thing that would stop me getting the S22 plus would be the battery life, some reviewers say it’s good some say it’s bad, but the phone it self is one of the nicest looking phones out there
The Plus? I can understand concerns about the smaller S22, but I think you'll be fine with the S22+. There's really not much in it between the Ultra and the S22+
I was going to get the ultra cause the lack of camera bump thing looks really good but the curved screen is a deal breaker and while the square design looks cool its not very practical i also don't use the s pen so ill probably end up getting the s22+ instead unfortunately
Personally coming from a S22, I actually upgraded to the ultra and I can't go back. The screen is absolutely stunning and probably #1 in the market. I do not understand the issue with curved screens as this is like samsungs 5th iteration of curved display and they've honestly perfected, I've hardly had any issues and make the phone feel more premium then rounded corners on the s22.
Agree with you @Anonymous. Was tempted to get the Ultra for that larger screen but with the Ultra's curve, maybe there's an argument that you 'lose' the extra 0.2 inches of screen real estate that the Ultra has over the Plus. The screen size is the main difference I'd notice day-to-day with the Ultra, once the initial fun and novelty has worn off. By that point, is 0.2 inches REALLY worth making yourself £200 poorer?
I hate the curved screen on my Note 10. Hard to edit pictures, plus the screen breaks more easily because cases don't protect the sides as they are lower than the screen. This video sold me on the S22+ because of the Ultra's noise/softening. Will miss the 10x, but they need to make the screen flat first, no one wants broken screens.
Wonderful review and like you, I prefer the S22 and plus vs the Ultra. I'm changing from a Note 8 and want a phone that's easier to handle and with good battery. I don't do any gaming but do read a lot and watch a few videos apart from the usual calls and texts. I use a Watch 4 and Buds Pro, so Bluetooth is always ON. Will the S22 do fine or should I go for the plus ?
Thank you! It doesn't sound like your usage is very heavy, so I think the S22 would be good enough. You'll need to charge every night (but you would with the S22+ as well). If you were happy with your Note 8 battery, then the S22 will be fine
@@insidetechltd Thanks for replying! I'm not happy with my Note 8 battery, especially on days it's always on mobile data, however if the S22 does as well as the Note, it's a fair trade off. I don't know if you've used the Plus a lot, and I understand it can vary based on usage, but what would the difference in battery left at the end of the day be between both models.
why do these 'tech reviewers', scratch that, I mean 'freelance salesmen', never talk about how ridiculously hot these devices get after 10 minutes of basic use?
@@insidetechltd are you saying that there are no expectations that affect your scripts? no currents to follow? that u never restrain yourself from saying things? that you don't fly over details? that you don't have to pretend to address cons? or do so in self-serving way?
Sure! All my reviews are written completely independently and I will always say exactly what I feel. If that means a company chooses not to work with me in future...so be it! Better to make the video you want to make than to lose your integrity, right? Also you're commenting on a video that has no involvement from Samsung (or anyone else) other than me buying the phones with my own money and reviewing them. I didn't get them sent to me and I haven't been asked to say or not say anything. That's just the way I choose to make my videos 🤷♂️
The best review I've come across so far! I've been indecisive ever since it came out, and now thanks to you I've decided to get the s22+. Thank you so much!!
This was an awesome review! 👍🏾 I'm about to go get either the s22 or s22+ and I was wondering if you could help me decide. I'm coming from the s20 FE. I love the smaller design of the s22 and it's perfect for me. Other than daily use, I use my phone to record videos and take photos at music festivals. Would you say I should go with the 22+ for that reason? Or is the video and audio quality difference is unnoticeable?
i was thinking about buying a new phone on my birthday on january 1st 2023 and i was thinking between iphone 12 and samsung s22 the samsung is 100$ cheaper any suggestions? (i have a samsung s7 edge)
Thanks for this very well put video. I wanted to upgrade from the s10+ and had some trouble deciding. Definitely getting the s22+. Currently on sale for 899 USD.
I recently got my S22+ Sky Blue 256GB model for 700$, and sold my S22U, I'm glad I did, I love the flat display, and it's much more easier to use with 1 hand and I hardly use the S Pen, the Plus model is definitely underrated between the 3.
@@MaDFroG88 yea that's crazy man, I'm definitely not the only one either getting good battery, a lot of S22+ owners are having great battery life. Maybe look into the S22+, if not I wouldn't worry about it, I stopped worrying about my battery especially since fast charging is available.
I took the s22 ultra back to get the s22 plus because the ultra was frequently stuttering and lagging too much and the touch response is slightly slower and the screen looks mediocre compared to the s22+
I think it depends on what phone you are switching from, so what's your phone now? They are both good, but it depends what you had before and why you are upgrading. For example if you found your last phone had a small screen, then maybe the S22+ is better. But maybe you want to try a smaller phone this time 🤷♂️
Hi. Need your opinion on the Samsung S22 series 1. Is the S22 Ultra heavy? Is it gonna make you feel uncomfortable on long term use like watching movies? 2. For someone who needs to turn on the data and hotspot most of the time, is the S22/S22+ still okay to last the whole day? 3. Is the design of S22 Ultra makes you feel uncomfortable? The corner edges and the big boxy size. Or will it be fine with a phone case?
@@insidetechltd yaa i was planning to get that one also.. But the colour that i want is out of stock right now and i need to get it within this month. I'm in dilemma.. Thanks for the reply!

@@insidetechltd I got mine yesterday and I love it
The s22ultra is great, but I don't like the squared front of the phone and the screen's curves. However the back is dope looking. The s22+ is my choice though.
Same as me 🙌🏼
I really liked how compact is S22 but only if had a better battery life
Same 👍🏼
Best ever review ♥️ neat and well detail thanks a bunch.
Thank you 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Went to visit Samsung store and I am very amazed with S22 look, size and how well it fits into my hand. It weights only 1/4 compared to my current phone (my wrists hurt after prolonged use because of my small hand). Very excited to get one
I hope you enjoy it!
in my opinion they should've kept last years sizes for the bigger batteries because they made a lot of internals more battery hungry (exynos 2200 etc.) I actually bought an S21+ around 2 weeks ago just because of the smaller battery size and price on the S22+
I'm considering doing this. How much was your s21+? I still see some prices for $899..for 21+
But I also seen some for just $400 but I'm scared of getting a refurbished as what if it doesn't work
@@thezx1972 Mine was 800$, I think they're quite cheap on amazon
@@thezx1972 also, check different colours and different websites. Different prices everywhere.
What a thorough review, one of the best I've seen - Thank you
Thank you! 👊🏼
Greetings from Argentina, excellent analysis. Do you think that the resolution of the ultra qhd justifies the purchase over the s22plus? Do you notice the real difference in that section? Thank you
Hello!
No I don't think so. It is something I notice but since I work in tech I'm also looking out for differences like this. You do eventually forget about the resolution so I don't think it's a big issue overall. I think the S22+ is better overall value that you can ignore the resolution!
Very interesting. In some comparisons to the pixel 6, the ultra was sharper than the pixel, while the pixel was sharper than the regular 22. Perhaps some updates had occurred after all. My main question is how fast are you able to snap photos, will the phone keep up (shutter lag, I think it's called)? Can the af track people?
The only thing that would stop me getting the S22 plus would be the battery life, some reviewers say it’s good some say it’s bad, but the phone it self is one of the nicest looking phones out there
The Plus? I can understand concerns about the smaller S22, but I think you'll be fine with the S22+. There's really not much in it between the Ultra and the S22+
I was going to get the ultra cause the lack of camera bump thing looks really good but the curved screen is a deal breaker and while the square design looks cool its not very practical i also don't use the s pen so ill probably end up getting the s22+ instead unfortunately
Not unfortunately! The S22+ is a better phone imo
Personally coming from a S22, I actually upgraded to the ultra and I can't go back.
The screen is absolutely stunning and probably #1 in the market. I do not understand the issue with curved screens as this is like samsungs 5th iteration of curved display and they've honestly perfected, I've hardly had any issues and make the phone feel more premium then rounded corners on the s22.
Agree with you @Anonymous. Was tempted to get the Ultra for that larger screen but with the Ultra's curve, maybe there's an argument that you 'lose' the extra 0.2 inches of screen real estate that the Ultra has over the Plus.
The screen size is the main difference I'd notice day-to-day with the Ultra, once the initial fun and novelty has worn off. By that point, is 0.2 inches REALLY worth making yourself £200 poorer?
I hate the curved screen on my Note 10. Hard to edit pictures, plus the screen breaks more easily because cases don't protect the sides as they are lower than the screen.
This video sold me on the S22+ because of the Ultra's noise/softening. Will miss the 10x, but they need to make the screen flat first, no one wants broken screens.
This was very helpful, thank you! 🙂
Thanks!
Incredulous that my s8 plus has qhd while the s22 and s22 plus is on fhd...
This is a great quality video. Thank you!
Thank you! 👊🏼
This is the best review ever thank you very much !!! 💯💯💯
Thank you! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Wonderful review and like you, I prefer the S22 and plus vs the Ultra. I'm changing from a Note 8 and want a phone that's easier to handle and with good battery. I don't do any gaming but do read a lot and watch a few videos apart from the usual calls and texts. I use a Watch 4 and Buds Pro, so Bluetooth is always ON. Will the S22 do fine or should I go for the plus ?
Thank you! It doesn't sound like your usage is very heavy, so I think the S22 would be good enough. You'll need to charge every night (but you would with the S22+ as well). If you were happy with your Note 8 battery, then the S22 will be fine
@@insidetechltd Thanks for replying! I'm not happy with my Note 8 battery, especially on days it's always on mobile data, however if the S22 does as well as the Note, it's a fair trade off. I don't know if you've used the Plus a lot, and I understand it can vary based on usage, but what would the difference in battery left at the end of the day be between both models.
I'd say go for the plus. I've had both and the plus just simply has a way better battery
I want to buy a s22 + but im not sure whether its fake or not can you make a video or tips on what to check for?
The funny part is that the s22 and s22+ has slim and uniform bezel where as the ultra had a bigger down side chin which makes it not so good looking.
why do these 'tech reviewers', scratch that, I mean 'freelance salesmen', never talk about how ridiculously hot these devices get after 10 minutes of basic use?
We all got together in secret and agreed to never, I mean never, talk about it.
@@insidetechltd are you saying that there are no expectations that affect your scripts? no currents to follow? that u never restrain yourself from saying things? that you don't fly over details? that you don't have to pretend to address cons? or do so in self-serving way?
Sure! All my reviews are written completely independently and I will always say exactly what I feel. If that means a company chooses not to work with me in future...so be it! Better to make the video you want to make than to lose your integrity, right? Also you're commenting on a video that has no involvement from Samsung (or anyone else) other than me buying the phones with my own money and reviewing them. I didn't get them sent to me and I haven't been asked to say or not say anything.
That's just the way I choose to make my videos 🤷♂️
The best review I've come across so far! I've been indecisive ever since it came out, and now thanks to you I've decided to get the s22+. Thank you so much!!
Good choice 👌🏼 thanks a lot!
I have both and I like the s22+ better. It feels better in the hand and not as slippery as my 22 ultra.
This was an awesome review! 👍🏾
I'm about to go get either the s22 or s22+ and I was wondering if you could help me decide. I'm coming from the s20 FE.
I love the smaller design of the s22 and it's perfect for me.
Other than daily use, I use my phone to record videos and take photos at music festivals. Would you say I should go with the 22+ for that reason? Or is the video and audio quality difference is unnoticeable?
Thank you!
No difference in video/audio quality. Go for the smaller S22 👍🏼
@@insidetechltd thank you! I just got the phone and loving it!
i was thinking about buying a new phone on my birthday on january 1st 2023 and i was thinking between iphone 12 and samsung s22 the samsung is 100$ cheaper any suggestions? (i have a samsung s7 edge)
A lot of thanx for your efforts
Thank you! Very good review>
Thanks a lot!
Thanks for this very well put video. I wanted to upgrade from the s10+ and had some trouble deciding. Definitely getting the s22+. Currently on sale for 899 USD.
Good decision 👍🏼 Thanks for watching!
I've upgraded from s10+ to a s22+,trust me when I say,that,it's the best decision i've made. Really good phone. Loving it 👍
I couldn't get the S22+ at my last upgrade. They found an S20+ languishing in a drawer and I got that instead. It's a better device all around
would probably go with the s22 if not for the fact you cant get it in a 512gb model
RIP expandable storage
El Dorado . Watching this on my s22
You really explained nicely 👌
Thank you 👍🏼
I recently got my S22+ Sky Blue 256GB model for 700$, and sold my S22U, I'm glad I did, I love the flat display, and it's much more easier to use with 1 hand and I hardly use the S Pen, the Plus model is definitely underrated between the 3.
How is your battery life?? My s22 sucks 4-5 hours SoT ….
@@MaDFroG88 I'm easier getting 7h SOT and some days about 8H, just depends on what I'm doing, but I never worry about the battery life on my S22+.
@@Albery.93 on my s21+ I ad max 6 hours SoT and s22 has smaller battery!!
@@MaDFroG88 yea that's crazy man, I'm definitely not the only one either getting good battery, a lot of S22+ owners are having great battery life. Maybe look into the S22+, if not I wouldn't worry about it, I stopped worrying about my battery especially since fast charging is available.
I took the s22 ultra back to get the s22 plus because the ultra was frequently stuttering and lagging too much and the touch response is slightly slower and the screen looks mediocre compared to the s22+
Wow...fair enough!
Ur work is great 👍
Thank you! 👊🏼
Once you notice that this reviewer keeps hitting the same note vocally you can't unnotice it.
The lord blessed me with a monotone voice
@@insidetechltd it's not monotone. It's a series of notes that always ends on a C#. Probably no one but a musician would ever notice.
do you face some choppy scrolling and touch delay on your s22?
Sometimes choppy scrolling with social media 😕
Nice vedio..
I need u help
What u recomended me to chose between S22 and S22 plus?
I think it depends on what phone you are switching from, so what's your phone now? They are both good, but it depends what you had before and why you are upgrading. For example if you found your last phone had a small screen, then maybe the S22+ is better. But maybe you want to try a smaller phone this time 🤷♂️
S22 plus for the lovely flat screen.
Hi. Need your opinion on the Samsung S22 series
1. Is the S22 Ultra heavy? Is it gonna make you feel uncomfortable on long term use like watching movies?
2. For someone who needs to turn on the data and hotspot most of the time, is the S22/S22+ still okay to last the whole day?
3. Is the design of S22 Ultra makes you feel uncomfortable? The corner edges and the big boxy size. Or will it be fine with a phone case?
I think the Ultra is heavy. The S22+ is lighter, more comfortable and the battery is almost as good as the Ultra. I would recommend that instead
@@insidetechltd yaa i was planning to get that one also.. But the colour that i want is out of stock right now and i need to get it within this month. I'm in dilemma.. Thanks for the reply!
1.20: Oh stop! As for Galaxy Note Fans, the boxy design of S22 Ultra is perfection.
We don't need big almost circle rounded corners have to offer.
Glad you like it! It's just not for me personally
@@insidetechltd because it will cut content. And we don't have to copy apple for everything.
