The Best Features of Samsung Galaxy s22 ultra:

1. A new Note series?

The S22 Ultra is an S series only in the name.  It’s basically a Note device with the signature boxy design and a built-in S Pen which is a  notable upgrade over the S21 Ultra, that phone had to use an optional case to hold its Stylus. Every thing from design to the features, this phone feels like an Note series smartphone.

2. Supernatural writing experience with S-Pen

let’s talk about this the s22 ultra is the first S-series phone to come with an s-pen built in the s21 ultra did support it but you had to carry it around separately and as a longtime user and fan of the Note series the only reason to use this is that it’s so convenient to pop it out and make some notes sign or mark up documents use the pen as a remote shutter for the camera the usual stuff but actually functionally there isn’t much new here the big upgrade is they’ve reduced the latency from 9 milliseconds down to 2.8ms. 

It’s an upgrade from 9ms on the S21 Ultra. Samsung is using AI to make it happen which predicts the path a user will draw for a supernatural writing experience.

which is very impressive and it makes the pen feel even more responsive so that and also handwriting to text conversions now support a few extra

languages but the big deal is it’s more responsive and it is you know inside the phone both of which by the way are ip68 water and dust resistant

3. Longest Software Support

5 years of software updates  

That’s right! The S22 Ultra will receive  4 new generations of Android OS upgrades and security patches for 5 years. Since the phone is equipped with Android 12,  it will go up to Android 16 and receive its final patch in 2027 which is unheard of in the Android world.  

4. Game-changing camera  

If you’re looking for the best cameras on a Samsung phone look no further while there’s some stuff that is the same across the board.
The s22 ultra has a few other cameras that are on paper even better every single s22 series smartphone has the same 12 megapixel ultra wide angle camera with a 120 degree field of view and the same 3x optical zoom lens the s22 ultra has a different main camera though a 108 megapixel wide camera with Samsung’s largest image sensor ever-larger image sensors are going to be great for things like performance in low light and producing shallower depth of field on top of that the galaxy s21 ultra has a fourth camera which is a second telephoto lens designed to zoom even further for 10x optical zoom and 100x space zoom.
Compared to something like the iPhone 13 pro max this longer range zoom lens is unique to Samsung’s s22 ultra on top of hardware improvements which by the way are all new across the board this year Samsung is also making improvements to the camera software including a new advanced autofocusing system and improved stability.

Even though the S22 Ultra doesn’t have major changes in camera hardware, there’s a massive improvement in quality both day and night. And that’s because Samsung improved the pixel size by 123% which means more detail and more accurate colors. Not only that the phone now takes two images simultaneously. One with 108MP for details and one with 12MP for brightness and then it combines both of them for a brighter detailed photo. 

They have also updated zoom sensors and you can see a huge difference. 

S22 Ultra captures the most realistic portrait photos ever thanks to improved AI. 

Samsung also says the night mode on this thing is unmatched and judging from early impressions, they weren’t messing around. 

They also worked with Snapchat so that you can use all these features from the app itself. 

Samsung absolutely nailed the camera game with the S22 Ultra. 

5. Huge upgrades in video recording  

Not just photos there are huge improvements in the video as well. It takes far better portrait videos aka cinematic videos than Apple’s latest iPhones. The stabilization has been improved by a  massive 58%, it captures 12-bit raw video, Samsung has included a super clear lens on the camera for clearer photos and videos. 

There are features  like auto fps which automatically adjusts the fps  

depending on the lighting conditions for brighter and detailed footage in dark, and auto framing which adjusts the zoom levels depending on the people in the frame. 

Like I’ve said, Samsung just raised the camera game to a whole new level.   

6. New cooling technology  

You see the new processors are so powerful that they generate a lot of heat so to counteract it Samsung included an updated cooling solution on the S22 Ultra.  

It uses a new thermal paste that’s capable of transferring heat 3.5x more efficiently. 

The vapor chamber used now covers a wider area which improves heat transfer and it also has a wide graphite sheet that diffuses heat away from the vapor chamber. Sounds great on the paper but will  

have to see how it does in real life. 

7. Brightest display ever with Vision booster  

The display on the S22 Ultra is the brightest ever at 1750 nits up from 1500 on its predecessor.  

But most importantly it has vision booster technology where the display automatically adjusts the contrast and colors depending on the brightness levels. This will prevent the washed-up content we get when we increase the brightness to max.
Not only that the  LTPO display can also go all the way down to 1Hz which was limited to 10 on the S21 Ultra. Thus saving crucial battery life. 

8. Toughest Galaxy phone 

The S22 Ultra is the toughest mainstream phone ever with Gorilla glass victus+ glass on both front and back and a stronger aluminum frame.  It doesn’t mean the phone is unbreakable since glass is glass and glass breaks. But it will handle the drops and scratches a little better than others.  

9. Fast charging  

Finally Samsung is offering a Fast charging technology with their latest smartphone S22 ultra, it comes with a true 45W charging support, unlike its predecessors.  
But Samsung isn’t providing this in the box, you need to get it separately. 
Box has the charging USB Type C cable but the charging brick is missing in the box. 

Conclusion:

The S22 Ultra is ready to become the smartphone of the year 2022 even though we’re still in February.  This phone has set the benchmark for the upcoming flagship devices.
Samsung S22 Ultra is really a good choice and has lots of camera improvements.
