My only problem with the S22 purchased Sept 2022 has been that light sources are severely blown out at night on all cameras, even front. Currently on Android 14, OneUI 6.0. No improvement from updates.
My S7 Active was perfect for night shots. The S22 is utterly worthless for anything with light sources in frame. I am very disappointed with this, but not worth returning the product. I have just given up on making interesting night photos.

        Samsung really f-ed up by giving the S22 smaller battery. Samsung tried to compensate with better optimizations but OneUI is no iOS in battery efficiency thats for sure. No wonder the S22 resale value drops faster when compared to S21.

          Does S22+ use a crop & upscale from main sensor to record 3x zoomed videos at night(4K) or the regular telephoto lens? Can someone test by covering the telephoto lens and shooting a 3x zoomed night video?

              I purchased this phone on April 2023. After using this device for about close to 8 months, its safe to say that I developed a somewhat "Love and Hate" relationship with it, especially considering the fact that I'm a College student which means my daily phone usage is quite high and whether the phone is able to adapt and handle my lifestyle is somewhat okayish. However here are my honest thoughts about it.


              The "Good"
              - Super light and compact to be brought and fitted in my pocket anywhere and any time.

              - Doesn't really heat up especially recording during long hours

              ' Snapdragonn Chipset made the device really fluid

              - One handed usage ability is fluid

              - Feels very appealing to hold/use/look at it

              - Great audio compression after video recording!

              - Camera photos and video recording serves a Iphone 13 feel which is really superb.

              - Charges really fast (if fast charging mode Is enabled)

              The "Bad"

              -Batrery drainage is quite fast, have to charge at least to a maximum point of 2-3 times a day if usage is heavy/mid heavy

              - Turned off most features offered by the device in order to conserve battery life so I wasn't able to enjoy the experience of the device as a whole.



              Conclusion:

              -Can be easily rectified by turning on the Fast charging availability to speed up charging process of the phone. Other than that the phone is super beautiful to use and it serves me well


              Reccomenedation : Get the S22 plus for a bigger battery life option and the phone is more than great!

                User of samsung galaxy s22 i bought this phone from flipkart as a replacement for my 13 mini i am a big fan of compact phone seriously samsung galaxy s22 dissapointed me the phone is great in papers when coming to the perfomance its a iron box the phone heats with minimum usage and starts to lag you can notice it in 120hz never think to use this phone in sunlight its like a mini sun in your hand
                The phone has many drawbacks the battery is average
                The phone buildquality is awful
                Camera is great but it has some bugs
                If you are looking for just the camera go for s22 otherwise leave this shit

                              Almost five years since phones are all about cameras, and nobody in GSM arena didn't find it compelling to learn a thing or two about the photography.
                              No puns, all intended.

                                The Samsung S22 phone is great in all aspects but the battery life is terrible!! All the other pros of this phone can't compensate for the biggest con which is the battery life. Quite disappointed.

                                  I bought 2 days ago brand new s22 and the battery is terrible. Today the Digital Wellbeing shows 1 hr 8 minutes of usage and I am at 45% from 7 AM to 12. I don't know how they state 5 hours screen time. Now I disabled 5g and VoLTE and will see what will happen. I switched from 120 to 60 Hz, but I don't like it so I am back to 120. Usually I end the day with at least 55% on my OnePlus Note 2T, so this one should be at 25, but it was at 20% yesterday at 4PM.

                                    S22 is a brilliant smooth phone, with everything you need in a phone, but the battery is brutal, I have to listen to music on another device to preserve battery life. They should of recalled all of these phones & upgraded the battery, it let's the phone down so bad. Shame, looks like I'll have to upgrade to the s23.
