Comparison review
Galaxy S22 has a general score of 93.4, which is just a bit better than Google Pixel 5's 89 score. The Galaxy S22 body is newer and a little bit thinner than Google Pixel 5's, although it's just a little heavier. Samsung Galaxy S22's processing unit is just as good as the Google Pixel 5 one, they have the same RAM memory amount and the same number of cores.
Galaxy S22 counts with a more vivid screen than Google Pixel 5, because although it has a just a little lower amount of pixels per inch in the screen, and they both have exactly the same resolution of 1080 x 2340px, the Galaxy S22 also counts with a little larger screen. Galaxy S22's memory capacity for games and applications is very similar to the Google Pixel 5 one, both have exactly the same 128 GB internal memory capacity.
Samsung Galaxy S22 shoots a lot better pictures and videos than Google Pixel 5, because although it has a tinier aperture, it also counts with a much better video quality, a way higher 50 megapixels resolution back camera and a much bigger camera sensor shooting way better quality pictures and videos.
Google Pixel 5 features just a little bit longer battery performance than Samsung Galaxy S22, because it has a 4080mAh battery capacity instead of 3700mAh.
Although Galaxy S22 is a better device, it costs a lot more than Google Pixel 5, and it doesn't have such a good price and quality relation as the Google Pixel 5. So if you need that extra features, you can buy the Galaxy S22, but if you don't you can save a couple dollars and get the Google Pixel 5, giving up a couple specifications.
