SD card slot: why is it better to have only one HDD instead of two?! You don't want INSTANT access to backups or any other type of data, get this, IN AIRPLANE MODE? No connection, wire, dongle needed.
QHD display: I'm sorry, but after using a 4k display HIGH-END flagship phone (Sony) , I could immediately notice the transaction to WQHD+ when I bought a Samsung. Now we have to DOWNGRADE even more to FHD with 394 PPI??!
But the price has tripled in the last 3 years!
Why are you defending them? You sound like a payed troll if you ask me.

I really dislike the glass. It breaks and picks up fingerprints. Who are these people that want glass?

Classic Samsung strategy. First remove or downgrade a feature, then reintroduce it in a year or two...

I'm not too bothered about glass or plastic back. I'm just hoping they also put a better screen on the S22 and S22+.

I guess there really aren't that many hardcore headphone jack fans in real life, just a few loudmouth ones online.

Since 90% or more of the people are using a cover/case, nobody actually cares about that.
We're more interested in Samsung bringing back the 3.5mm jack, the SD card slot and QHD displays on the S lineup!

since there are no upgrades except the processor and optical zoom for the base s22 and plus models, they just decided to bring the glass back, and probably increase the price by 100$ good job samsung

Anonymous, 21 Dec 2021Glass back more durable then plastic? 😂You know durability doesn't only mean "drops" you know? Scratches are also terrible damage that is guaranteed to happen to all phones. It just happens WAY less to glass surfaces. Glass is infinitely harder than any plastic material. I haven't cracked a single phone I ever owned. They were all eventually scratched. Back when we had plastic cases and displays they all looked pretty bad. It got better when we got glass displays. It's best now we also have glass backs. Mid period when we had metal phone case designs weren't really better. Painted aluminium looks horrible when it scratches or dents because it exposes bright bare aluminium underneath and makes scratches and dents 100 times more visible. It's why I always only buy phones that have silver aluminium sides. Even if it's scratched or dented, color underneath is the same. Luckily I don't have that problem with glass on the back. It can be all scratched up and it's not even visible on white glass. Which is what looks the best anyway. Black glass (or glossy black plastics) are horrible for scratches and fingerprints.

Anonymous, 21 Dec 2021"Glass feels nicer and is more durable than plastic.&q... moreOH MY GOD. Is cracked glass ALL you people know? Eh? You apparently haven't seen phone worn from something as mundane as jeans pockets. Jeans is actually pretty rough and sliding phone in and out of pocket literally grinds off paint and scratches plastics. It also wears off chrome platted plastic sides on budget phones that pretend to have metallic sides. Glass is entirely unaffected by all that. I don't drop my phone on the ground 55 times a day, but I sure place it that many times on wooden table and in and out of pockets. And for that glass will stand wear way better. Like so much better it will look exactly the same without any deep scratches or discolorations. My 3 years old phone has just few micro scratches on glass display without any screen protector. I don't want to even think how it would look like with plastic screen that we had years ago and I've used them. And they all got horrible and they were recessed into the phone frame back then. Today it's fully exposed flat surface. What makes you think back plastics are any different? Uuuuuuh but glass cracks. Shut the hell up you whiners. Glass may or may not crack from POTENTIAL drop. You can't avoid desks and pockets that will absolutely and with GUARANTEE scratch all the plastics on your phone, unless your phone magically floats in mid air and doesn't touch jeans pockets when it's in them.
