Samsung Galaxy S22+ 5G Mobile Phone 128GB SIM Free Android Smartphone Pink Gold

Product Information

This upgrade is welcome as the 50MP sensor is a large one, so it ‘sees’ more light, resulting in brighter images and more vibrant colors. This is most noteworthy for low-light photography, as we managed to capture some surprisingly bright-looking snaps at nighttime, but also helps during the day to make colors stand out more.

Sitting slap bang in the middle of the range in terms of price, it’s a decent option, but it doesn’t really stand apart from the rest, either. The bigger screen is a nice bonus, as is the chunkier battery, but sadly I can’t see many of these flying off the shelves.New high-end phone releases are generally quite anticipated, shoppers always get excited to see all the new tech their latest toys are going to have. Unfortunately, regardless of having all the bells and whistles, sometimes they also can be a bit boring and the S22 Plus is a grand example of that. There is nothing wrong with the phone and it's certainly better than the 2021's Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus 5G, it just doesn't give any major reasons to upgrade if you have a high-end smartphone from 2021 and that's okay. But the owners of a 2020 model phone or older could certainly find something attractive in it to upgrade to it and we're here to describe the new enhancements they might like to have.

HDR, Panorama, Bokeh Mode, Night Mode, Portrait Mode, Scene Detection, Slow Motion, Time Lapse, Stereo Recording Both chipsets are paired with 5G modems, so both of these phones let you connect to next-gen networks which is useful for streaming and gaming on the go.FHD+ is fine for most tasks though, as only select streaming services or games offer content that’s a higher resolution than that anyway. There’s also a refresh rate of 120Hz, which means motion looks pretty smooth when you’re swiping between menus or playing games. Review summary: Design: 8/10 – Features: 8/10 – User-Friendliness: 9/10 – Performance: 9/10 – Value: 8/10 We found the audio quality a tiny bit tinny when the phone was on higher volumes, but it was fit for something like gaming or taking video calls. Software You’ll never have to leave home without either, not with its 2-day battery life. That’s right, it can hold a full 48 hours of power. But when it does (eventually) need topping up, fast charging tech means it’ll ready for action again in no time. And wireless PowerShare lets you give your friend’s handset a boost if they’re running low.

The display of the S22 Plus is a 6.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X one, which makes it 0.1 inches smaller than the predecessor. It has a dynamic refresh rate that goes from 10Hz all the way up to 120Hz to preserve battery life when on-screen elements are static and offer a buttery smooth display all the other times. The average brightness is also higher with the S22 compared to the older model. Expectedly, the colours are vivid with an impressive contrast ratio and the 2340 x 1080 resolution looks sharp. The Exynos 2200 chipset offers a strong performance with impressive enhancements - maybe not for the basic tasks but for the graphics and neural processing, it's a great jump. Battery Life: Practically Unchanged We also have to commend Samsung for being one of the few phone companies putting out vibrantly colored phones - we tested a pink S22 Plus, and other options include green, blue and violet. How many companies are putting out pink phones these days? For our full review, we used the Exynos-powered phone, and it ran well. When we put the device through a multi-core benchmark test using Geekbench 5, it returned a score of 3,431. That’s a very high score, and one of the highest we’ve seen from a Samsung phone too, but a few 2021 devices beat it, including the Xiaomi Mi 11, Realme GT, OnePlus 9, and ZTE Axon 30 Ultra. Those devices all use the Snapdragon 888, the predecessor to the 8 Gen 1, which points towards the Exynos chip being a tiny bit weaker. Samsung’s Galaxy S devices used to be industry-leading for its amazing-looking displays. While the S22 Ultra gets to keep this title, we’re not sure the S22 Plus deserves it. That’s not to say the display is bad looking, but it doesn’t stand out from the crowd.The S22 Plus’ screen is a 6.6in Dynamic AMOLED 2X affair, which feels noticeably larger in use than the comparatively dinky 6.1in display on the standard S22. Specifications remain the same, however, with a maximum FHD+ resolution, 120Hz refresh rate and a touch sampling rate of 240Hz. These new displays also have a lowered minimum refresh rate of 1Hz, which in theory should help to increase battery life. Zoomed images are much improved, too. Pictures taken at 3x optical zoom looked phenomenal, and even the 10x hybrid zoom produced some Insta-worthy snaps (30x is still a bit iffy, but is miles better than last year). Telephoto images looked both crisp and clear, with very little visual noise, even as the light levels dropped.

S22 Plus review: Bigger and better? Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus review: Bigger and better?

With a few discounts this phone might prove popular, but at its current price, it’s hard to recommend. The Galaxy S22 Plus went on sale February 25 in the US, March 3 in Australia and March 11 in the UK. Plus, it’s exceedingly expensive - we shouldn’t be calling a phone that costs this much ‘average’ in any way, and the overall use experience of this mobile is more comparable to mid-rangers than similarly priced Android or iPhone rivals you might be considering instead. If there’s something that does make us narrow our eyes in doubt, it’s the charging speed. Samsung claims that the phone charges at 45W, a figure that’s hard for average users to test given that the phone doesn’t come with an in-box charger. But when we used an 80W charger on the phone, it still took over two hours to power from empty to full.Video recording goes up to 8K, which we’ve no idea why any average user would use. There’s also 4K recording at up to 60fps, and using a sub-8K-resolution also lets you use image smoothing and stabilization. The Exynos 2200 performed well in our benchmarks, although the speed gains are negligible compared to last year. In the Geekbench 5 single- and multicore CPU tests, the S22 Plus scored 1,144 and 3,488, which, as you can see from the graph below, is pretty much identical to the previous Exynos 2100 found inside the S21 Plus.
