I looked precisely on you test photos in 100% crop and also on GsmArena test patterns and clearly there are some problems with camera and/or post processing. Maybe your phone is defective?
Pictures have awful sharpening halos, corners are really blurry, especially lower right. Additionally complicated patterns like foliage are rendered in awful way - probably 9 to 1 binning is calculated in wrong way. I planned to change to this phone from my old but gold (color ;-) S9 but comparing the photos my S9 is clearly superior (i'm comparing only main camera because there is no other one in s9).
Maybe it's fixable in firmware or they put to big sensor and too small lenses in front of it.
I will wait and look if other reviews show similar thing.
Thanks GSMArena for doing such comprehensive test!
Cheers!

Pixel 6a premiere date and availability still unknown. Will be 6.4 so quite big. I like the pure OS from Google, but one UI is not that bad. 4y of promised soft support convinced me. Buds pro as a gift when you preorder. It'd my first Samsung and I am not disappointed.

I just do not get it why Samsung must be following Apple's throat cutting strategy? Just because Apple had proven majority of consumers are sheeps??

Gi... moreThen I'm afraid the S10 will go with you into the afterlife, since those things you wish for, wont ever be coming back from the looks of it. But like the review says, there are other alternatives to fit a more niche choice, if your flavor isn't vanilla/samsung.

Didn't we always knew this information? I want confirmation on the poor battery size, and camera performance.
I tried one of these, the camera was laughable, oddly enough.And I did not get to test the small battery either.

Throttled like hell.
Less than 15 minutes and it's already just capping at 60% of maximum performance.
Worse image quality than SD counterpart,
And micro-stutter or should I say there's still tiny bit of choppy UX experience.
I don't get it why people still buying this expensive nonsense.

Anonymous, 23 Mar 2022for the price very weak battery life.... not worth it.If compare to S20 regular although with 4000 mAH battery capacity but endurance rating is only 71 hours compare to S22 regular which has smaller battery but with a endurance rating of 85 hours! It is all about the software optimization and hardware I guess. What is bad on s22 is the speaker loudness compare to S20 which is scored very good.

AnonD-1018516, 24 Mar 2022I mean, the phone itself is pretty small, the battery cell ... moreNot much smaller than S21 if you put both side by side. Not that much lighter too when hold in hand. The way some of you guys talking as if the S22 is a marvel of packaging and efficiency just because it is a bit smaller is quite funny.

"Samsung's flagship Galaxy S devices have always offered great all-around, if not industry-leading, build quality"
Perhaps the reason why this phone display broke on the very first drop in the drop test. Indeed fantastic build quality seen
