Key Highlights
Samsung’s Galaxy S22 lineup arrived at the February 2022 Unpacked event, carrying forward the legacy of the Galaxy S series with a refined approach. While the S22 Ultra shifts fully into “Note mode” with its S Pen integration, the Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus stay true to the classic Galaxy S identity. The standard S22 keeps the signature Contour Cut camera housing from the S21, offering a familiar yet more premium feel thanks to its new Gorilla Glass Victus+ glass-sandwich build. At just 168g and with an IP68 rating, it strikes the perfect balance between durability and comfort. Competing directly with the iPhone 13 and Google Pixel 6, the Galaxy S22 stays below the $1,000 mark without sacrificing core flagship strengths. Its 6.1-inch Full HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display delivers a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, 240Hz touch sampling, and an impressive 1,300-nit peak brightness supported by Samsung’s Vision Booster technology. The result is crisp, vibrant visuals even under harsh sunlight. Powering the S22 is Samsung’s Exynos 2200 chipset paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage. The 50MP Sony IMX766 main sensor captures sharp, detailed photos, while the 10MP front camera handles selfies with ease. The device supports 5G, Dual SIM, NFC payments, and both fast and wireless charging—though there’s no microSD slot or 3.5mm headphone jack. With a starting price of around €550.94 ($638), the Galaxy S22 stands out as a strong value pick, especially for Android users who appreciate premium performance without paying Ultra-level pricing. In markets like India and Bangladesh, it continues to attract tech enthusiasts with its sleek design, flagship display, and reliable everyday performance. Overall, the Galaxy S22 remains a polished and innovative entry in Samsung’s flagship lineup.
