The best phone I've had
Phone owned for less than a year

I've had this phone for about 6 months now, it's still as good as when i first got it! I cannot believe how great this phone is.
The camera is also one of the best things about it, the pictures are clear even at night

Bad Camera
Phone owned for less than a year

Picture quality is awful, especially with movement and lights. Nothing redeeming about this phone. Not worth $800. I liked my old Pixel 4 much better but I gave it to my teen son thinking this S22 would be an upgrade, it is not. The phone is also not intuitive to use.

Best phone ever
Phone owned for less than 3 months

I only has Samsung phones, but this one is far better than all the other models. I love the way it is build, all the programs are working properly and the camera is 10/10 - I enjoyed it at my last trip. must try it!
