Samsung Galaxy S22 Review

Score: 93.4 / 100

Samsung Galaxy S22 is a wonderful Android cellphone released more than a year ago, having a 6.1" screen, a high speed Octa-Core processing unit (composed by a Quad-Core at 3000 megahertz and an additional Quad-Core clocking at 1800 MHz), a 50 MP back-facing camera and a 10 mega-pixels front facing camera.

Samsung didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 5.89 ounces cellphone. Samsung made this cellphone in many different colors: green, phantom black, pink gold and white. The S22 combines Glass (Corning Gorilla Glass Victus) and Aluminum . The S22 is only 5.75 inches long, but it still manages to hold a 6.1" display. This phone has a beautiful design, with a thickness of just 0.3 inches.

Samsung packed this cellphone with a beautiful 6.1" display, and a 1080 x 2340 resolution, providing this device with a high level graphical experience.

Samsung sells this device with a high speed Octa-Core CPU (formed by a Quad-Core at 3000 MHz and another Quad-Core running at 1800 MHz), bundled in the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SM8450 (4 nm) system chip and a big 8 GB of RAM memory. This cellphone comes with an awesome 128 GB internal storage memory and whereas it doesn't have an SD memory slot, it is still enough to store tons of applications, games, photos and videos without thinking about filling the cellphone.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 is equipped with two cameras, a 50 megapixels back facing camera and a 10 MP front-facing camera. Its back facing camera lens has a maximum F1.8 aperture so it can capture awesome pictures even in poorly lit environments. This phone can also shoot videos up to 7680x4320 at 24 fps, and 1280x720 HD slow motion videos up to 960 frames per second (32 times slower than reality).

This cellphone features a great 3700 mAh non-removable battery, enough to provide this cellphone with a marvelous battery duration. An issue to take into consideration is that the Samsung Galaxy S22's battery is non-removable so you can't change it when it begins to lose capacity, even though having 3700 mAh you will probably replace this device before it happens.

This phone provides wi-fi connectivity (which it can provide to other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), 5G latest internet connection, LTE-A 4G ultra fast internet connection and also HSPA+ data connection (a bit slower 4G variation) and the fastest 3G connectivity, over HSDPA technologies. This device uses a Nano SIM card for GSM services.

The S22 also comes with lots of interesting characteristics as Biometric fingerprint, Facial recognition biometrics, Wireless charging, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your device close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth and GPS (Global Positioning System), and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

This phone may not be a good choice considering it is offerred for $ 799, and other similar phones are being sold for less than that. No matter if you are looking for a social cellphone, are looking for a work cellphone, want this phone to take tons of photographs or will use it as a gamer phone, you will definitely love this cellphone.
