Android smartphones are often easy to discount. Indeed, you only have to wait a few months after the phone is released to take advantage of a much more attractive price and the most premium references on the market are no exception. Take for example the Samsung Galaxy S22 launched last January, the price is already in free fall thanks to an unprecedented reduction of 220 euros.

Design that fits in your pocket

The Samsung Galaxy S22 roughly takes the aesthetic features of its predecessor, in particular this photo module that rolls up on the left edge of the smartphone. The device is also of better quality than before, as it now incorporates a 50 + 12 + 10 megapixel triple sensor, where the wide-angle, ultra-wide-angle and x3 telephoto lenses provide the versatility of relevant photography. . It’s definitely a good photophone, but it still needs improvement on its management of dynamic range, which can be patchy on some lenses at times.

What we really appreciate about this flagship is its compact size. So it’s not as small as the iPhone 13 mini at 5.4 inches diagonally, but it’s sure to fit in all pockets thanks to the screen at just 6.1 inches leaving almost no room for the sidewalk. Apart from that, the panel is of very good quality, as it is AMOLED with Full HD+ definition of 2,340 x 1,080 pixels and adaptive refresh rates ranging from 10 to 120 Hz. We must not forget that everything is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus+, the most resistant protection to date.

Best performance, but…

If most of the high-end Android smartphones in 2022 choose the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, Samsung is clearly choosing once again for its internal solution. We are talking here about the Exynos 2200 SoC which is sculpted in 4 nm and which follows Qualcomm’s chip in benchmarks. The user experience under Android 12 with the One UI 4 interface will always be smooth, even when abusing multitasking with voracious apps, but one should note a slight drop in graphics performance. In 60 fps, epic quality and 100% 3D resolution on the game Fortnite, unfortunately it may experience some slowdown.

As far as battery life is concerned, the Galaxy S22 made the wrong choice by carrying a very small battery of only 3,700 mAh. Both on paper and in practice, it’s too little to last an entire day with intensive use. Hence, you have to think about taking your charger anywhere to recover the percentage, and unfortunately it’s not that fast with only 25 W fast charging, where it takes more than 1 hour 30 to go over 90% battery. Wireless charging is definitely part of it, and it’s thankfully in this price range.
