Galaxy S22 Ultra, which is currently selected as the model that Android phone users want to buy the most in the surveys, was officially introduced at the Galaxy Unpacked event. Without further ado, let’s take a look at what the phone has to offer.
How Is The Design Of The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra?
Samsung entered a new path with the Galaxy S22 Ultra and combined the Galaxy Note and Galaxy S series in this phone. The Galaxy S22 Ultra is not only the top model of the Galaxy S22 series, but also brings with it the S Pen, which we are familiar with from the Galaxy Note series. Thus, it makes a difference as it is the first S Pen supported Galaxy S model we have seen in the Galaxy S series to date.
The Galaxy S21 Ultra also had S Pen support, but we had to buy the S Pen separately for this. In the S22 Ultra, the S Pen finds its place directly in the box or even inside the phone. Not only that. Galaxy S22 Ultra has many differences from Galaxy S21 Ultra in terms of design.
Galaxy S22 Ultra, which can be found in different color options, reveals the biggest difference in design around the rear camera block. The block around the camera, which we are familiar with from the S21 Ultra, is absent on this phone. While the cameras are located directly on the body of the S22 Ultra, there is no change in the number of cameras. We will talk about this in the camera step a little later.
While the edges of the S22 Ultra draw attention with its rounded lines, its corners have harder lines, as in the Galaxy Note series. Thus, while the power and volume button are located on the right side of the S22 Ultra, which differs from its predecessor model S21 Ultra in terms of design, when we look at the bottom, we find the SIM card slot, the USB-C port and the speaker grille right next to it, respectively. By the way, let’s say 2 things: S22 Ultra also does not have a microSD card slot, so you cannot upgrade the memory of this phone, just like in the S21 Ultra. That’s why we say make a good choice of storage space when buying the phone. Another point will be that the phone will have stereo speakers – and the sound quality is unquestionably good.
There are a few more things we can say about the design of the phone. One of them will undoubtedly be dimensions. The dimensions of the phone are 77 mm wide, 163 mm long and 8.9 mm thick. Thus, the S22 Ultra, which is slightly wider and slightly shorter than the S21 Ultra, is equal in thickness to the S22 Ultra. There is no change in the weight point. The S22 Ultra also weighs 229 grams.
The water-resistant design also applies to the Galaxy S22 Ultra. The phone, which has an IP68 certificate, can withstand water at a depth of 1.5 meters for 30 minutes.
What are the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Display Features?
Yes, now that we have finished the design part, let’s take a closer look at the other features of the phone, starting with the screen. The screen of the S22 Ultra consists of a very large, 6.8-inch Edge QHD + screen. Thus, it is of course possible to say that it is a great option for multimedia applications.
In addition, we think that there is no one who does not know how sensitive Samsung is about the screen. Consisting of a Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel, this screen has a 120Hz refresh rate and a 240Hz touch sample rate, which is one of the most sought-after features for mobile gamers. The screen of the phone, which you can use very fluently with a 120Hz refresh rate, also has important changes compared to the S21 Ultra.

The first of these is that the brightness level of the screen has been increased, which is probably why Samsung will receive a new screen award with it. The screen of the Galaxy S22 Ultra can reach a brightness level of 1750 nits. This value was at the level of 1,500 nits on the Galaxy S21 Ultra. We will already talk about these and comparative tests in the test video, where we will examine the Galaxy S22 Ultra in detail.
There is, of course, an integrated fingerprint sensor on the screen. Let us inform you that while this sensor works fluently, face recognition is included as an alternative security method.
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Operating System What?
Of course, the Galaxy 22 Ultra has the latest Android 12 as the operating system. Bringing the Android 12 update to many phones, including the Galaxy S21, Samsung has also updated the One UI interface with the Galaxy S22 Ultra; One UI version 4.1 appears on this phone.
What are the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Features?
The Galaxy 22 Ultra, like other Galaxy S22 models, is available with Qualcomm’s latest chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The S22 Ultra will be available in different regions with different RAM and memory options. There is a wide range from 8 GB RAM and 128 GB memory options to 12 GB RAM and 256 GB / 512 GB / 1 TB memory options.
There is no change in the battery of the phone. The most important difference in the S22 Ultra, which comes with a 5,000 mAh battery, is experienced in the fast charging point. The phone’s fast charging support has been increased to 45W. This was 25W on the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Of course, the S22 Ultra also does not have a charger in the box. In other words, you will need to buy a charger with this speed to benefit from the 45 Watt speed.
How Are The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Cameras?
Yes, now let’s get to the cameras. Galaxy 22 Ultra does not have a big difference in camera compared to Galaxy S21 Ultra. The cameras of the S21 Ultra were already quite good, but we would expect to see some differences. We will talk about this later in the detailed review.
When we look technically, we see that the 4-camera setup is still preserved in the S22 Ultra. Here, there is a 12 MP wide-angle camera with f / 2.2 aperture, 108 MP dual pixel supported, f / 1.8 aperture and 85-degree angle camera, and 2 10 MP telephoto cameras. One of these 2 telephoto cameras can do 3x optical zoom, while the other can do 10x optical zoom. In other words, this camera is also what we call 100x Space Zoom. Thus, Moon photography is also possible with this phone.
8K video recording is also supported on the phone, and when we come to the front camera, we see that there is no difference here either. The front camera also has a 40 MP lens and can shoot at an angle of 80 degrees.
Conclusion
We think we’ve talked about everything you need to know about the Galaxy S22 Ultra at first impression. Of course now we need to use the phone a bit and learn more about it. We will pass this information on to you right after.
It is possible to say that the S22 Ultra made the biggest difference from the S21 Ultra with the S Pen, processor revision, design update and a few minor revisions. Maybe it would be much better if we saw a few innovations about the camera. Price is a mystery for now.
