Our take on the Samsung Galaxy S22 5G 6.1 in - Unlocked - 256GB Black
The Galaxy S22 is Samsung's 2022 compact flagship: a 6.1-inch AMOLED phone with a 120Hz refresh rate, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip and a triple camera led by a 50MP main sensor. It stands out for its small size and full flagship features, including wireless charging, IP68 water resistance and an optical 3x telephoto. Reviewers praised the screen and camera for its class, but many noted average battery life for a small phone. It suits shoppers who want a one-hand phone with strong cameras rather than the biggest screen or longest endurance.
