The best phone I've had

Posted: Sep 09, 2023, 3:23 AM

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

Posted: Mar 13, 2023, 2:00 PM

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.

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!
