Key Highlights
With a starting price of Rs 84,999, the Samsung Galaxy S22+ comfortably earns its title as the “Goldilocks” option in the S22 trio — perfectly positioned for users who want more than the vanilla S22 but don’t need the Ultra’s extravagance. While it doesn’t introduce groundbreaking changes, its subtle yet meaningful upgrades make it a reliable and well-balanced flagship. The FHD+ AMOLED display and 4,500mAh battery may appear modest on paper, but Samsung has refined almost every corner of this device compared to the S21+, making it noticeably smoother and more polished in day-to-day use. As the middle child of the series, the S22+ walks a fine line. It enhances the essentials — improved cameras, faster charging, and a slimmer, more refined build — without overshadowing its Ultra sibling. The refreshed design, featuring an aluminium frame and Gorilla Glass Victus+, adds durability while maintaining a sleek, premium feel. Its 6.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 120Hz display delivers crisp visuals with impressive brightness levels reaching up to 1750 nits, making outdoor visibility effortless. Paired with stereo speakers, the multimedia experience feels richer and more immersive. Samsung sticks close to last year’s design language but adopts a more squared-off aesthetic similar to modern iPhones, giving the S22+ a sophisticated and contemporary vibe. At just 7.6mm thick and 196g, it’s slim, sturdy, and IP68-rated for dust and water resistance. Powering the device is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, offering flagship-grade performance for multitasking, gaming, and heavy workflows. Users can even transform the S22+ into an advanced GPS tracker for real-time location sharing and family coordination. With its launch across various markets, including India and Nepal, the Galaxy S22+ delivers a well-rounded flagship experience that’s dependable, stylish, and perfectly balanced for most buyers.
