Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Buyer's Guide
Galaxy S22 Ultra Release Date: February 2022
Swappasaurus says...
The Galaxy S22 Ultra is Samsung’s highest-end flagship for 2022. The S22 Ultra was released alongside the rest of the S22 lineup, on February 25, 2022. But even though it carries Galaxy S branding, you can think of it as the Galaxy Note 22 because of its S-Pen support and integrated S-Pen holder. Just like the rest of the S22 lineup, the S22 Ultra is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip. However, it sets itself apart in the specs department with a large 6.8" Dynamic AMOLED screen, options for 8GB or 12GB of RAM, and your choice of 128GB, 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of internal storage. The Galaxy S22 Ultra also packs a powerful quad-camera array with a 108MP wide-angle, 12MP ultrawide, and two 10MP telephoto zoom lenses. It also supports Nightography, advanced optical image stabilization, and up to 100X Space Zoom. The S22 Ultra is available in 7 colors: Phantom Black, White, Burgundy, Graphite, Green, Red, and Sky Blue.
