Niko, 06 Nov 2022Hello,I am considering an upgrade to this device from my ga... moreThe S22 is a huge upgrade over the S10. Heck, even the S21 I had was a big upgrade. My S22 has been better in every way over my S10, except for the screen resolution. The S10, at this point, is ancient and slow compared to the S22.
You could not pay me to go back to using an S10. Or even an S21.
But, at this point, you might as well wait for the S23 to launch in February. Which should be similar to the S22, only faster and have better battery life.

Samsung made a thin, light, compact device but miscalculated on the battery size and power efficiency of the new chipsets. Let's hope they don't repeat that mistake next year.

Hello,I am considering an upgrade to this device from my galaxy S10, but am worried about the battery life, and also spec wise this does not seem like much of an upgrade.
Should I spend more and get the S22+ or possibly even wait for the next gen in February?

Besides your average user has no clue about the resolution and doesn't even care.
For me, I can easily see the difference between the resolution my S10 had and the resolution my S21 had and the resolution my S22 has. But in the end, I am many times more pleased with my S22 than I was with my S21 or S10. The lower resolution has made no difference to me. And hopefully the S23 will continue that trend. I plan to get one at launch and trade in my S22.

That's slightly disingenuous.
14 Plus has a 458 ppi, S22 Plus has 393 ppi
The 14 Plus has a closer resolution to the S22 Ultra.

Samsung lowered the resolutions because they could. They looked at the lower resolutions Apple had, saw that it did not affect sales, so Samsung ended up doing the same thing with their lower Galaxy S phones. And their resolutions are similar to the lower end iphones. Like the ipHone 14 and 14+.
Plus, Samsung probably had the data that showed that most people ran their screen resolution in the lower rez mode anyway.

Apple devices doesn t need much specs to be fast . Apple devices with only 4 ram are faster than android devices with 8gb ram. Some people want better security , some people want easy to use , it is all about choice. But even Apple never downgraded display quality and ram for the newer model. Only Samsung did that with S21 and S22 who are lower than S20 5G.

I will have my S23 in a case, like my previous Galaxy phones, so I'm not too concerned with the raised camera lenses the S23 will have. Since the case should be designed to still protect them. Although I do prefer the flat design the S22 has for the camera lenses.

Anonymous, 31 Oct 2022How do you use your S22 daily so that you could go with it ... moreFor me, I use wireless Android Auto for around 1.5 to 3 hours a day. I also always have between one to three BT devices connected to it. I will listen to music from it for a few hours a day with my Galaxy Buds2 Pro ear buds. Plus I use it for email, texting, banking, Blue Iris, Samsung Smart-things, web browsing, word docs, pdf docs, pics, UHD videos etc. So I'll also have several hours of Screen On Time use too.
I can typically go all day with no issues. But if I'm going to go past 17 or 18 hours off the wireless charger, then I will charge it for a while, just in case. But, so far, I've only needed to do that three times since I got it launch week.

Plus I’ve seen leaks of what the S23 and S23+ might look like, and it seems Samsung’s changing the camera design to match that of the S22 Ultra’s 🙁 I much prefer the S22’s overall design. It’s simple and elegant. I also heard they’re retaining the sizes of these phones, and possibly their battery sizes as well. It looks like Samsung is again banking on the newer SoC alone to make the necessary improvements in battery life, just like they did in the S22 lineup. Their major mistake was making the physical capacities smaller if you ask me, and if they’re not rectifying that decision, I’m not sure we can expect better batteries for the S23s. Nothing about these are confirmed, of course, so fingers crossed you’re right about this most anticipated upgrade.

LostFantasist, 30 Oct 2022After weeks of deliberating hard on whether I should get th... moreAt this point wait for the S23. With the newer, more efficient SoC, Plus TSMC making it, and the slight increase in battery capacity. Means the S23 will have much better battery life than the S22. The S23 is supposed to be out in January.
I plan on trading my S22 in toward an S23 or possibly an S23+. I've been trying to get more devices that have 6Ghz, WiFi. aka WiFi 6E. Since I now have a couple of WiFi 6E Access Points. So if the base S23 doesn't have WiFi 6E, I'll seriously consider getting the S23+.
Although I have no complaints about my S22. I've had one since before launch. I can still go all day with it. Screen On time isn't the only factor to consider. I use wireless Android Auto too. Which is a big drain on battery. But it is still easily the best Galaxy S phone I have owned. But that is also the case every time I upgrade to a new Galaxy S model. I expect the S23 I get to also be the best Galaxy S phone I will have owned too. And supersede my S22.
