In our review of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, we found a big, powerful, and good-looking Android phone (if you like them monolithic). It’s very flexible and can be used for important work, taking notes by hand, playing games, and casually browsing the web on a big screen. The cameras are a clear highlight, and the Space Zoom feature lets you go to infinity and beyond. Yes, you will have to pay a lot for all of these features.
The design of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is very different from that of the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and even its own predecessor. Its design is inspired by the Galaxy Note series. For example, the big screen with curved sides and a flat top and bottom reminds me of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra (Review). The best thing about the Galaxy S22 Ultra has to be the built-in S Pen, which has its own place in the phone and continues the Galaxy Note series’ legacy.

Where to buy Galaxy S22 Ultra smartphone?
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has a 6.8-inch screen with a hole punched in the middle of the top. The top and bottom edges of this panel are very thin. Its sides follow the shape of the aluminium frame, which makes this phone look very high-end and hides how wide it really is. The Galaxy S22 Ultra is 228g, and you can feel this weight in your hand. But Samsung has put the weight in a way that makes it easy to use with one hand.
One of the first phones to come out with Qualcomm’s flagship SoC, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, was the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. The 8 Gen 1 takes the place of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 888, which was used in a lot of 2021 flagship phones. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, on the other hand, is only sold in a few places, most notably North America. One version of the S22 Ultra that is sold in Europe has Samsung’s Exynos 2200 SoC inside. No matter what processor your S22 Ultra comes with, it will have between 128GB and 1TB of storage and either 8GB or 12GB of RAM.
