00:00Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra in 2023.
00:05In this video, we're going to find out if after 20 months, this phone is still worth
00:11it.
00:12As always, we're going to start by talking a little bit about the exterior design, which
00:15as you can see is quite similar to the latest model, to the S23 Ultra, besides a very small
00:22shape difference on the side edges to make it more ergonomic.
00:25I've already said this many times, but I'll say it again.
00:28This is the most beautiful design that Samsung has ever created for one of their phones.
00:34It is very, very, very good looking.
00:36The only bad thing that I can say about it is that it's not the most ergonomic as I said.
00:41It is 6.8 inches and very pointy squared edges.
00:45So unless you're Shaquille O'Neal, you're 100% going to have to use it with two hands.
00:51Then in terms of the internal components, it obviously has the best of the best.
00:55More specifically, the Snapdragon 8th generation 1 optimized for the S22 Ultra.
01:01Pay close attention.
01:02This is not the normal 8th gen 1 like the rest of normal phones.
01:07It has a version of this processor customized specifically to take the most advantage out
01:12of the phone.
01:13So of course it is as fast as it gets in the Android game.
01:17So yeah, it's kind of a phone for the long run.
01:19You're supposed to buy it and use it for like four or five years.
01:22That's kind of the purpose of having so much power that you can have it for so, so, so
01:26long without losing that premium fast phone feeling experience.
01:31But anyways, let's move on to talk about the battery, which I'm not very excited about
01:38the battery.
01:39It is not the best battery I've ever seen.
01:41And there's a couple of things that you should know about it.
01:43But first, before we talk about the battery, there's something more important.
01:47And it's that right now this phone has an amazingly low price on Amazon.
01:52I've never seen it so low ever.
01:54So if at the end of the video you decide you want to buy it, I left a direct link in the
01:58description because as I said, very low price.
02:01It is very worth it to just at least take a look.
02:04But anyways, back to the battery, which as I said, it's not the most exciting part of
02:09this phone.
02:10As you can see in this comparison, it has worse battery life than the S23, the S23 plus
02:15the S23 Ultra, which doesn't, it makes it not look so great.
02:20I have to say in the S22 Ultra defense that all of these other phones have insanely good
02:27battery lives.
02:28So even though the S22 Ultra is a little bit behind, it doesn't mean it has better, bad
02:32battery life.
02:33It just means it is not as insanely good as those other phones.
02:37But still, if we compare it to like an iPhone or two other phones, it's very, very good.
02:41But anyways, let's move on to talk about the display, which is insanely good, beyond good
02:48on this phone, because my friends, the display on this phone has everything and everything
02:54is everything.
02:55120 Hertz with an LTPO panel that varies that refresh rate from 120 to 1 Hertz, 1750 nits
03:03of brightness and extremely thin frames.
03:06On top of, of course, the highest end panel available.
03:10And when I say the highest end panel available, it's not just me hyping it up.
03:15It is literally the best panel you can put on any phones.
03:19Well, you can't really do it because Samsung makes those panels and they're not going to
03:23sell them to Apple or any other company.
03:24They want their phones to have the best of the best.
03:27So right now, the best display on any phone is the S22 Ultra or the S23 Ultra, which share
03:34that panel.
03:35For those who have had this phone in their hands, you know what I'm talking about.
03:38It looks insanely good.
03:43And finally, it is time to talk about the most important component or well components
03:49on this phone.
03:50All the cameras, because this phone has a lot of cameras.
03:53It has a 108 megapixel main lens.
03:56It has two 10 megapixel zoom lenses, a 3x and a 10x.
04:00And of course it has the beloved classic 12 megapixel ultra wide.
04:04All of these cameras are very, very good.
04:06They all are in some way or another an upgrade over the old generation S21 Ultra.
04:13But I would say the most important upgrade we've seen is on the main camera, which is
04:18the one that I'm using to record this video.
04:20It has a huge sensor, a lot of megapixels as you saw.
04:23So it captures a lot of light, a lot of detail.
04:26It's very, very sharp.
04:28But anyways, I know most of you care about the photos, not the video.
04:31So I'm going to show you a bunch of photos from all the four cameras zooming in so you
04:35can see the small details.
04:37And then I'll come back to talk about the fifth camera, which is the selfie camera.
04:42Let's go.
06:12Okay, so those were all of the main cameras on this phone.
06:25As you saw, the better looking photos came from the main sensor, as I said.
06:30Then I think the ultra wide is a close, very close second.
06:34And then we have the zoom cameras, which are not as good looking as the other two, but
06:39are very versatile because we have two focal lengths.
06:42We have a 3x and a 10x, which is very handy for people who like to take photos.
06:47And last but not least, of course, we have the selfie camera, which is the worst out
06:51of all of them.
06:52Of course, it is a very tiny sensor, very tiny optics.
06:55So it's, it's impossible to make it look as cinematic to give it as much a dynamic range
07:02as the other cameras because of physics, you know, you can't make a gamer look big when
07:07it's tiny.
07:08But even then, it looks very, very good.
07:10I wouldn't say it's a massive upgrade over the S22 Ultra or sorry, S21 Ultra, but I would
07:16say it's, it is very good.
07:18It is on the high end of selfie cameras right now.
07:20So you're not going to be disappointed, I guess.
07:22It's going to be definitely going to be way better than the one you have right now, unless
07:26you have the S21 Ultra.
07:27So yeah, adding up all of these points, the very good processor, the decent battery life,
07:32the very good display and very good camera system for the same price as an iPhone 12,
07:39I think it is insanely worth it to get an S22 Ultra, unless you have a lot of money
07:45and you want to get the best of the best, which in that case, I recommend you go for
07:48the S23 Ultra.
07:51This is it.
07:52If you're looking for an Android phone, that's very good, but you don't want to break the
07:56bank and go beyond a thousand bucks.
07:59This is it.
08:00This is it.
08:01S22 Ultra.
08:02Remember, you have a direct link in the description to Amazon for the best price available right
08:07now.
