The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is an upgraded version of the Galaxy Note that has a more powerful S Pen that is integrated in, several camera upgrades, a more vivid display, and quicker charging. If we were to evaluate the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra based just on its cameras, and in especially the optical and digitally improved zoom capabilities, we may conclude that it is the greatest smartphone that has ever been produced. One of the most high-end mobile phones ever produced by Samsung, the Galaxy S22 Ultra is also one of the most expensive. It's possible that the phone doesn't quite have the same level of "amazing" factor as the flexible Galaxy Z Fold 4, but there's no denying that it's Samsung's most impressive product. The Galaxy S22 Ultra can be had for a starting price of $1,199 in its 8GB/128GB version. It will set you back an additional $1,299 to increase your storage capacity to 256GB, $1,399 for 512GB, and $1,599 for 1TB.
DESIGN
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is a beautiful device that manages to be both straightforward and sophisticated. I like how the angles have been squared off and kept crisp. Due to its Note heritage, the 6.8-inch Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, which is an undeniably stunning piece of hardware, does not resemble the Galaxy S22 Plus in appearance very much. The design is based on the first-generation Galaxy Note 10, but it improves upon it by using even higher-quality components. The framework is made of solid Armor Aluminum, which resists bending in a stiff manner. The metal, which has been polished on the exterior to a finish that is almost identical to chrome, is placed in between two plates of Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+. Both the high-gloss surface on the front glass and the warm satin finish on the rear glass do a good job of preventing fingerprints from sticking to them. The water that we ran over the phone didn't seem to have any effect on the phone's IP68-rated body. Another standout feature is the AMOLED screen that measures 6.8 inches. It is capable of supporting resolutions of up to 3088 by 1440 pixels (WQHD+), which equates to a pixel density of 500 ppi. Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green, and Burgundy are the four color choices available with the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra.
DISPLAY
On the display, which can now easily transition from a 1Hz refresh rate all the way up to a buttery-smooth 120Hz, everything, including games, films, and applications, looks wonderful. The refresh rate ranges from 1Hz to 120Hz. The panel has a maximum brightness of 1,750 nits, making it perhaps the brightest display that any of us have ever seen. The efficient ultrasonic fingerprint scanner is tucked away behind the screen in a location that is around one third of the way up from the bottom border. Both registering a finger and using it to unlock the phone was a simple process for us to complete. Facial recognition is the other kind of biometric security that may be enabled on a Samsung device; however, the company advises that this method is not as safe as others, such as a PIN or a fingerprint.
CAMERAS
The Galaxy S22 Ultra takes photographs that are noticeably more lit up as a result of its larger primary sensor. The cameras don't only have a similar aesthetic; they also function practically identically. There are two 10MP telephoto lenses; one has an aperture of f/2.4 with a field of view of 36 degrees, while the other has an aperture of f/4.9 and a FOV of 11 degrees. In addition to that, there is a 12MP ultrawide camera that has a 120-degree field of view, and there is also a 108MP primary wide camera that has an f/1.8 aperture and an 85-degree FOV. The zoom capabilities of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra are just on another level compared to anything else we have seen from a mobile phone camera in the past. It should come as no surprise that the 3x and 10x optical zooms are not only reliable but also provide crisp photographs of faraway subjects with sufficient clarity to enable you to crop in on features without seeing a significant increase in pixelation. One feature of Samsung's video recording capabilities that we really enjoy is that, in contrast to Apple's iPhone, it allows you to start recording video, stop it, and then pick up where you left off while still saving the whole thing as a single video file. Apple needs to include this functionality as promptly as possible.
SAMSUNG GALAXY S22 ULTRA S PEN
Aside from the incredible cameras, the built-in S Pen is the primary attraction of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, which is why you should consider shelling out the additional cash for it. The finest feature is that in contrast to the Galaxy S21 Ultra, it is not necessary to make use of a bulky cover in order to carry and store the S Pen. There is a slot for the Samsung S Pen right there on the phone itself. In addition, the Galaxy S22 Ultra makes use of artificial intelligence to anticipate the motions of your hand and simulate the sense of writing with a pen and paper. In spite of its little size, the S Pen is a capable sketching instrument, making it one of the most useful tools in the Apple ecosystem. Both the pen and the screen can detect different levels of pressure and angles.
In a nutshell, it's an effective technique for increasing productivity.

PERFORMANCE
One of the first smartphones to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor is the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. This 4nm chip claims to give higher performance across the board, including in the areas of CPU and graphics, while also improving energy efficiency. In spite of the fact that it has just 8 GB of RAM, the Galaxy S22 Ultra has a very fluid experience while opening and closing applications. This gaming phone is not only stunning to look at but also pretty powerful.
SOFTWARE
The Galaxy S22 Ultra is driven by Samsung's OneUI 4.1 software, which is layered above Android 12 and serves as the operating system. According to Samsung, this new design is more user-friendly and helpful than earlier iterations, and it also has a new privacy dashboard to provide users additional peace of mind. Similar to the majority of Android overlays, this one isn't primarily there to enforce a bespoke design aesthetic on top of pure Android; rather, it duplicates some utilities, such as the web browser and photos apps, and adds a ton of smart software touches and useful tools, such as Samsung's new Wallet, that should enhance the experience of using pure Android.
BATTERY LIFE
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has a large 5,000 mAH battery that, according to Samsung, may last more than a day. The Galaxy S22 Ultra supports 45 charging, an improvement over the 25W charging in the Galaxy S21 Ultra, for when it's time to recharge.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is without a doubt the most capable and adaptable Android smartphone now available that is not foldable. The performance of cameras has significantly increased, particularly in low light. The screen on the S22 Ultra is brighter, the battery lasts longer, and the processor is quicker than before, but the S Pen has also been improved to be faster and smoother. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is now the greatest premium Android phone available, and it is really close to becoming the best phone on the market in general.
