- The Samsung Galaxy S22 trio arrived earlier this week to take their spots as the rulers of the Korean company’s bar phone lineup. The Galaxy S22 Ultra is the first Samsung phone to include a built-in S Pen since the Note20 Ultra in 2020. Both the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22+ have updated main cameras and slightly different sizes. The Galaxy S22 and S22+ are now better positioned. Instead of relying on digital zoom from a 64MP sensor, the Galaxy S22 and S22+ have upgraded camera setups compared to their predecessors. These include proper telephoto cameras and a main sensor that is significantly larger. Those along with the new chipsets that bring a major boost to computational photography promise to bring significant boost to image quality.
- The Galaxy S22 is not only slightly narrower but also more than half a centimeter shorter than the S21, making it arguably the most significant change in terms of screen sizes and dimensions. This makes it the first truly compact Samsung flagship in three years and brings it closer to the Galaxy S10e than its predecessor. The Samsung Galaxy S22+ has shrunk a bit too, helping it distance itself a little better from the Ultra member of the lineup. It probably won’t completely avoid the anonymity that comes with being the middle child, but it might be seen as a viable option for people who think the Ultra is too big, rather than just a consolation prize for people who think the top dog is too expensive.
