Samsung Galaxy S22 ULTRA 5G, 128GB BURGUNDY - Unlocked

Corner Screen breaks and cracked easily even with daily use ! I also have the top end otterbox phone case with screen protector. This is without a fall !!!!! I have owned a galaxy since generation 1. This is the worst experience. I am now stuck with it and I just purchased it in January!.

I bought this almost a month ago and i am VERY disappointed with the battery life since it is not even taking a full day to drain it. I have upgraded from S20 Ultra and I regret my decision since that phone sometimes was taking me 2 days to drain battery eith normal use. I dont play games or use social media. They really need significant update for the battery life. I always have been a Samsung user and would like to stay as is if necessary updates are pushed.

The good: The processing speed of this phone is second to none. Don't let anyone fool you, the size matters. This is a nicely designed phone with large screen and substantial weight to it that can be used a self defense item when you find yourself alone in the dark trying to find your car on a large parking lot. The settings and customization is vast as you can adjust whatever you can think of on this phone. The display and camera is simply second to none. The not-so- good: We purchased two of these phones, one for me and one for my wife (her is a Note 20 Ultra which i am assuming is the same exact unit as S22 this year). First thing that shocked me is how easily they break. After one week of ownership we dropped the phone on the concrete from our toddlers stroller pocket and the screen cracked across the entire phone. The phone was in the case and the drop was not that bad. So much for the super tough gorilla glass or whatever Samsung is advertising on these flagship phones that cost an arm and a leg. Fixing the cracked glass on this phone costs approximate like an average brand new smartphone. We fixed it once and decided to buy this super tough case that is commercialized all over the internet (i will leave the brand name out) and what do you know, even with this wonder case the phone was not able to survive a two feet drop on the garage floor from the seat of a sedan car. The display glass broke severely and the back cracked across. What in the world is going on with the super tough glass advertised on these phones?? Well, back to repair shop and this time the price was even higher because they had to replace the rear cover that supposedly has the battery block on it. Enough about the toughness of this phone, its clear enough that this phone is not tough at all, as real life shows, not well controlled laboratory tests. My second concern is the battery life. Why in the world the battery only lasts one day under normal use? By "one day" i mean morning to evening. I never play games, just check my emails, messages and not even have a social media account of any kind to be always on it. Battery needs a lot of improvement. But this last one takes the cake and i think is actually comical. I opened the box and there was no charger. Seriously?? In this price range you cant include a cheap charger?? I get it, you spent all these money to develop an unbreakable glass and long lasting battery but, how is one supposed to charge this flagship phone when a charger is not included? I strongly recommend buying warranty with these flagship phones as real life experience shows they are extremely expansive to repair and they are simply not durable enough to survive real life tests.

Listen, for the little features they call upgrades, you won't miss them even if you tried out the 22 ultra. The Camera is garbage compared to the Note 20 regular. Auto HD is no longer an option, so your pictures are dark. The Flash Light is noticeably dimmer than the s20 note. There is no noticeable difference in processing speed, and the fact that they took away memory expansion means they are trapping you into spending hundreds of dollars more for adequate memory storage vs a few dollars for memory card. S22 Ultra is a rip-off.

I've used my Galaxy S22 Ultra (512GB, Green) for two weeks, and this phone keeps making me disappointed daily. I've been using Galaxy from Note 1, 3, 7, 9, and 10+. I love using S Pen. First of all, my new S pen has an odd smell like burning plastic which makes me very uncomfortable to use it because of the smell. Second, the phone gets warmer easily when I watch movies and use apps, and even I feel hot when I talk on the phone without using any additional devices like earbuds. Third, its sound is not good quality. I have to make the maximum of the volume to use its speakerphone for a phone call. Of course, its volume is not good enough for watching movies or dramas. Forth, this phone is heavier than I expected. Fifth, its camera quality is not impressive except its zoom function. Sixth, its body color (Green) is not pretty nor stylish. I can add more of my disappointments about this phone...but I stop here. Now, I am looking for a way of returning this phone since I haven't sent my Galaxy Note 10+ for the trade-in yet. I think the best phone is the Note 10+, but it is over three year old, so I am a kind of a dilemma. As a Samsung's loyal customer, I am pretty much frustrated at the quality of my new phone: Galaxy S22 Ultra.
