      The latest flagship is mostly just ai, don't think that you're gonna miss anything big. Also most of the ai features will come to the s22 with oneUI 6.1.

      I think he lionizes it. I think it's a piece of crap. The battery is terrible. The processor is too power-hungry while also being inadequate. It lags, apps crash regularly, and I find myself having to restart the phone every few days. I've had this phone less than four months, and the battery life is about the same as the S9+ I had for over three years. It is inferior to my old phone in every conceivable way, except that the processor is better on paper(but not in practice), and the camera is definitely better. I had to trade in my treasured S9 for this hunk of crap, expecting I would have a superior phone, and instead I find it has stripped features and cheap, unreliable components. The only good thing is the camera, and I don't take a lot of pictures.

    Great review! Just upgraded from S10 to S22 only because of delayed patches on S10 and nearing EOS. On the vibration issue, I guess Samsung took a note of feedback and provided a vibration sound setting to alleviate the issue out of pocket at-least. Couldn't agree more to all things mentioned about Samsung maturing from bloatware over the years and now leading the way in Android features. I myself was OnePlus fan before moving to S10 which was a pleasant surprise and S22 has bettered it in terms of some cool nifty features in software like "video call effects". Having "Switch"-ed over my data from old phone, I will soon be missing the expandable storage I guess. Limiting battery charge to 85% is another cool feature to prolong battery life which makes sense as Samsung promised 4 years of software support. Thanks again for the great video helped me and many others make an informed decision.

So in my case it was worth the upgrade as soon I wouldn't be able to trade in my s10 anymore and given the 4 yr support form samsung, I see s22 as a worthy upgrade at that price. Won't recommend paying more than $300 though as s10 is still a solid phone if end of support doesn't bother you as much. For me software support is needed for my work email on phone so was a compulsion to upgrade. Chose s22 because of form factor else s22+ is a better deal @ $100 more.

No rounded corners of the display make it resemble piece of paper shape which add to note taking experience bu after getting used to it using diffrent apss with corners trimed off feels weird.

    I bought the S22 last week. I ordered it on Tuesday night, after the official presentation, and it arrived less than 2 days later, on Thursday morning, even though on the website it said it would arrive in March. The size is good, the battery lasts well (more than 24 hours for normal use), the supercharger works fast (this is my preferred way of charging it as the wireless takes considerably longer), it doesn't heat up (only on day 1 while I was setting it up). The size is the right one for me as I'm a woman and anything bigger looks like the size of my head.

    It is very sad to still see people "defending" Apple and Android in the comment section as if they would get paid to do it. As long as all brands develop good phones and offer competitive price's, all consumer's win. Samsung certainly pushes Apple out of their conforte zone as much as Apple does it to Samsung.

The s22 is a breath of fresh air and sigh of relief in phone form. It's so awesome to not have to "baby" a phone anymore due to it having multiple "weak" and vulnerable spots. Its sooooo wonderful to not have to deal with a curved screen. I'm grateful for a flat screen because I haven't had one since I grabbed the note 9 years ago. The s22 is everything a person needs and a tiny bit more in a cute and compact form. I'm definitely happy!

      I think its good they kept it on the biggest models. One of the biggest complaints for the big new iphones is that the square edges are really uncomfortable to use. So why not put some curved edges on the big ones so they are easy to use, but while you are at it, just extend the screen into those edges. If the palm rejection is good, why not?

    The smaller S22 is the first phone I'm _potentially_ interested in upgrading to from my S10e. I can't get with the larger screen sizes, and it's good to hear the battery life is still decently well on the S22 (which has a 3700mAh compared to the S10e's 3100mAh, but obviously with the new gen processor and 120Hz refresh rate to make up for that difference). And four years of updates? Hot damn. It's just the lack of a headphone jack that still puts me off... I'd have to get a 3.5mm->USB-C connector if I pick up the S22. But it's definitely on my radar this year.

    Samsung was my first Android phone when I retired my Nokia Windows phone. It taught me about home screen looping and Dark Mode. The only brand I've used without having to install a launcher for looping is LG. LG phones also had Dark Mode whereas other brands didn't have it until Android 10 was released. I've been debating about going back Samsung and this video makes me lean a bit more that way.
    That haptic motor is one of the first things I turn off. The first time I touched a smartphone screen with it on it felt like I was being shocked and the phone went flying. Another thing I turn off is the sound of me touching the screen. That's annoying as all get out...
