Initially when I saw the Samsung Galaxy S22, I felt that it was a little bit bland. I felt that it looked very typical of Samsung devices. It has very nice matte back here which feels awesome to the touch minimal fingerprints.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 Plus is the flagship phone that sits in the middle of this year’s S Series lineup. It has a bigger and brighter screen than the vanilla model, as well as a larger battery and support for faster charging. Galaxy S22 is a fresh new build. The phone is made not of gorilla glass victus but gorilla glass victus plus on the back and the front. The back is a lot flatter here than last year and the camera bump doesn’t wrap into the frame like before. The frame itself is made of armor aluminum, it’s glossy and has a subtle curve to it. You also get the IP68 rated dust and water resistance.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra brings a design that’s quite different from the rest of the S-Series, it’s larger and heftier. And cameras come straight out of the back rather than being mounted in a camera bump. The Ultra has a flat back, top, and bottom, quite like a galaxy note device. Another big change over last year’s model is that the S22 ultra integrates the stylus into the design with a dedicated dock at the bottom. It’s a lot more secure and it means that you’ll always have your pen with you.
