You really did it, you dropped the S22 review on 2/22/22

Who is here in 2024

Thank you so much! I came for the camera capability review at 08:11 I don't care about 8k video. But getting close is critical, Using it for insect colony inspections :) I'm a professional photographer and have been so impressed with phone image quality that I seriously need to carry one as well. 1080p video is where I have the most interest. I do wish you had covered macro capability. Thumbs UP and I wish you all the best.

While it is true that the vibration is weaker because of the axis, we should also note that there is a setting under "Sound and Vibrations" called "Vibration sound for incoming calls" which imitates the sound of the vibration motor using the phone speakers. It is very convincing and can make up for the new vibration motor's lack of strength.

6:07 I can agree not hearing the vibration has made me miss calls before. Then I realized how silly that expectation is, the whole point of vibration alerts is to not make noise. Once I was on a job interview and my phone kept vibrating and it was very distracting to everyone in the room

I think it's better to have a brighter photo in the dark, than a more realistic one. You can always darken the scene afterwards, but you cannot retrieve lost detail in darker shots.

@Marques Brownlee, I have a Note 8, and wondering if the vibrate on the S22 will be at least as strong as what I am used to on my existing device (sitting on a desktop), it is loud enough for me to hear in another room when the house is quiet (one room over)? We are actively looking at Verizon or staying with AT&T and I see this is now available in an unlocked combo to enable me to go to any carrier GSM or CDMA, and I would prefer to stick with a Samsung device versus going back to iPhone since I have been a convert for many years now. I held off hoping for the "Note" to come back under that name but it is not going to happen and I would have purchased the S21 while my phone was worth considerably more six months ago, but I digress. For a heavy data user, messaging, music, video, sending photos, and taking a lot of photos, is this phone worth it? I would like 1TB but they are completely sold out, so I can only get half a TB which is more than I have now, but I keep my phones until I need to replace them and do not want to hate it in a week and need to switch to something else. Thanks, Lynn

@Marques Brownlee With the S22 Ultra (Exynos), do these issues still exist: camera(heard about shutter issue) Gaming (pubg- 60 - 90 fps not available) battery life(screen on time less than 7 hours) ? Thanks in advance.

I got one as well, and it's exactly what you expect. It's not a "stand out" for sure, but jumping from an S10, you can definitely tell the difference.

Phone reviews are so addicting to watch... even if I'm not buying the phone anytime soon.

Thanks for the video. What mode should be used when filming videos between FHD UHD or 8k?

Is there an option to record pictures and video from both front and back facing cameras at the same time? I really miss that feature from my Galaxy S6! My S10 didn't have it, which was a real let down. Supposedly Android updates from 2020 were going to allow for this to come back (processing 2 cameras at the same time).

Goes to show how good phones have gotten that Marques ain't even switching. It's the first I've seen him stick to last year's flagship when the new one came out.

I'm currently living overseas and the S Pen I amazing for translations. you can hover over a word, sentence etc... and it will translate for you on the fly. No having to open a translation app, taking a pic and so on. Some really great hidden features

is the usa version , SM-S908U1 (unlocked) able to get 2 sim cards? both 5G? please answer me.

So, does this phone shoot any kind of 10 bit 4:20 or 4:2:2 ? Any sort of raw video?

I believe Arun's battery test was also based on the Exynos version of the chipset, so probably not entirely applicable for the NA/Snapdraggon version.

the notes stuff is the big yes there .. as Marques said.. the S Pen and features always there to be use without sacrificing anything on the phone. Great phone and great video as usual Marques✌️

Excellent review - and man - you are smooth in front of a camera. Congrats!

Thank you once again for such a clean non dramatic review.

Watching this on my S22 Ultra which I just received today. A beast of a phone, and so far I'm enjoying it!

I'm quite impressed how the S Pen didn't really compromise the rest of the phone. That's a really huge pen inside, yet the internals still as good as the best of the best.

Thanks for the great vid, I actually am waiting on this phone to ship to the store I ordered it from. My question to you though is how does it fair when taking videos? Maybe it's just me, maybe I really just overall suck at taking vids. but on my the S21 Ultra which froze & became non-responsive in less than a year.........the vids I took were so blurry, I couldn't stand it. You couldn't even really tell all that much, what was going on in the vid. Have you tested the vid quality on the S22 Ultra? and if so, what did you think?

Hey Marques how do you feel about google charging money just to change the contrast on photos now on Google photos? (upgrade to google one unlock this feature)

I was expecting a killer intro. Surprised there wasn’t one. Review on point as always.

Always love the simple informative presentation and review. Keep up the great work!

Nice "Founder Bricks" statues you got there at 10:10. I'm surprised no one noticed!!

My man your reviews are DOPE thanks for being you :)

Having never owned a Galaxy, this really makes me want to try one out!

I prefer the aesthetics of the way Samsung did the camera rings this year. To my eyes it is a much cleaner look - Dbrand's case is the perfect addition to the phone making the camera hump/rings sit flush on a flat surface - I'm a fan

How come i have an s22 ultra with tmobile and i dont get the 5G UC icon at the top right? Im on the n41 band and have the magenta max plan. I have an iphone 13pro max on the same plan it displays 5GUC with no problems.

Hi, please where can i buy the Ultra 22 phone cover that you showed in your video?

Whenever I hear "I don't really use the sPen" I feel like wow, you're missing a lot! If you look at the sPen as only for drawing and jottiing quick handwritten stuff then you're just scratching the surface. To me personally, coming from Note 4 onwards, I use the sPen not for handwriting but for keyboard Swiftkey predictive input. Pair that with Evernote (or any other note taking app ie. OneNote etc) that syncs across devices (laptop, tablet, desktop PC) and you have one productivity tool. I can take down notes much faster than handwriting or even typing on the phone. I have my calendar, tasks, journal, ideas all jotted down on my computer in my pocket. I use it for work in my meetings and for personal home stuff (ie. projects, to do's etc). I also use sPen with Lightroom app, easily adjust sliders for photo editing if i needed, edit quick videos, use the sPen to scrub through the timeline, easily screenshot/resize/edit using sPen, also highlight quickly and select texts on any page. I'm not getting a phone without an sPen, to me any phone without sPen is just for media consumption and not for productivity. I can't wait to get my S22 Ultra and I'm really hoping the big reason Samsung removed the Note title from the S22 Ultra is that they will introduce the sPen into the next Z Fold phone. That will be my dream phone if it ever does come out.

0:17 Notice the red dot on the globe in the background - The coordinates to that location is 22°22'22" N, 22°22'22" W

Great review! Very informative and to the point. Much success to you!

I use the mobile version of Photoshop a lot! Moving the sliders are so much easier with the spen. Having the spen is a must for me! Can't wait until Friday. It was a good run Note 20 Ultra!

Superb iteration of the S/Note line up. The burgundy color is stunning btw, more so than the metallic pink of the N20U. Really hoping Samsung is able to fit similar camera hardware and built in s pen on the Fold4. As always, great review and thank you for the content.

May I ask what are the temps like? Mine has gone as high as 45 to 60 degrees Celsius. Constantly hitting over 40 even when I just watch UKposts

I've been wanting to get another samsung phone for a while now and I knew their ultra was the way to go, but I also really wanted to explore the note series so this actually makes me really excited that they basically combined the two of them

I like Marques' subtle shoutouts and recognition of other tech reviewers in his videos. It should be the norm across the tech community here at UKposts.

What is the editing app you talk about in this video please.

Ty.. We appreciate your candid review as always.

vibration motor was one of the biggest flops I noticed when moving from Note 8 to Note 10. I hate to hear my ringtone or my alarm's sound, so vibration is essential to me and the fact that it's getting worse gets me concerned. However it is not a dealbreaker.

I'm glad he said he's sticking with the S21 ultra. I have the 512gb/16 gb variant and it feels like such a solid phone even a year later. I was recording a video at my sister's party the other day and someone peered over my shoulder and was like "what phone is that, that footage is crazy" . The technology in these phones have advanced a lot and a lot of people in the real world have held on to their old flagships. The S21 ultra takes ridiculous photos and is so feature rich, I can see myself keeping this until 2024

Hello! Which one would you prefer to get, the iphone 14 or this one, the galaxy s 22 ultra? Hopefully you will answer my question, I'll be thankful

Glad to see support for camera privacy cases for this product.

The day always gets better when Marques uploads! Thank you for the high quality, interesting videos!

This *might* be my next phone... I'm still rockin' the S8+ (and it's still going strong) but the stylus tech looks pretty dope. As far as cameras go, I'm using this Google Pixel 3 camera APK thing and it's amazing.

Always go to look at your channel until you've reviewed it. Ty, for your chan! Life saver!

I've gotten 8-9 hours of screen on time on my s10+. not pushing it hard, but not going necessarily easy on it. I've tried to turn off features I don't need, and optimized it pretty well, so I think that's why. I wonder what I could from the s22u haha

I liked the idea of a curved screen, until I encountered the issues of screen protectors peeling off more easily. In addition to being more expensive and difficult to find a reliable curved screen protectors.

Which is the best screen guard and back cover for S22ultra because of my old cover I am not able at put any screen guard....

How long do we get updates ?

After the disappointment over the Galaxy Note not being released in 2021, I'm so excited to receive my Galaxy S22 Ultra. I went with the 512 GB version. Thanks, Marques for another amazing review video.

Just got the ultra. Going to wait a few days while Android optimizes battery consumption. You can do some tweaking with the processing speed setting (3 options) combined with thermals app from Samsung store for what works best. I increase temps by 2c and Max processing noticed that cpu clocks stay really high for even the smallest processing and gets super hot quick.

great review, it was helpful had a ton of information, didnt overload me with spec sheets as long as my arm, might go grab me one of those phones.

Hey just bought the ultra just wondering of the people I bought the phone from put on the tempered glass wrong just over where the fingerprint sensor it looks like trapped moisture is that normal

I think the camera bump of the S21 series was honestly the most beautiful, iconic and seamless look of any camera bump.

Best part of the review 5:01 - finally he reviews something he made!

What is the version directed to America, is it Snape Dragon or is it Exynos..?

Where did u get your s21 ultra? I got one and the sim card didn't read. I also really don't mind refurbished as long as the sim card reads :)

I love how you make well explained videos.

S pen translation is something I have been using quite a lot when I live abroad. It has been a lifesaver for me so many times. You can't find similar functionality anywhere else.

So would you recommend the s22 plus or the s22 ultra? I currently have the s20 plus and my 2yr c9ntract is about up so I don't know which phone to get next..

I haven't used the notes since I had the note 8 bc the pen kept falling out everytime I dropped my fone. So I wonder is this still an issue? I hate not realizing if it came out and I walk away leaving it behind (although the notification of it was great) I'd rather it just not fall out at all.

I am glad that you pointed out the dust accummulating around the rear lenses. I am always cleaning my phone. The S21 Ultra still has a better design and it is easier to clean, in my opinion. Sticking with the S21U for now. But the S22U is still impressive.

Just to note (lol) I believe Arun adjusted the screen brightness on all phones so they output a similar nit count, so max screen brightness wouldn't affect the results of the battery test. Also he only had the exynos chipset to test. Thanks for the awesome content!

how much of an upgrade is this from a Note 9 and is it worth the $$ if I were to buy this mainly for photos and vids for UKposts?

Great video man! I just picked up 2 of them. they are awesome!

Hey I was wondering if I should get the 8gb of ram or the 12gb of ram? Is there a big difference?

Got mine yesterday snapdragon version 12gbRAM/512gb storage and let me tell you this thing is a beast and I love it. Am coming back to Samsung after OnePlus and Iphone not exceeding my expectations. The S22 Ultra is an all around phone to have if you're a super user

Awesome review! Going from a note 10 plus to this ultra. Should arrive tomorrow for me. I'm excited. Thank you for helping me understand my new phone more. I do wish the display was flat but it does give it a premium look that others don't have. Excited to play with the cameras 📷

I received the Dbrand Atomic Grip case today for my S22 Ultra and it rocks. Thanks. 🙃

what would you buy to get this camera power and battery life but also having a SD card slot?

I have waited for your review on the Ultra among all the reviews out there for 1 week and kept checking your channel everyday at least 3 times a day and finally its here. Thanks MB for a great review.

The clock is set to 2:22. This S22 Ultra Review was realased on 2/22/22

Wifi networks searching still same. How long charging Full battery using 45 watt and how long hourly can be using.

Hello wonderful video, New subie here. Is this phone compatible with AT&t?

Thanks Marques, this was a much much much much better review than the S22/S22+ one. Simple, to the point, using real world usable examples and comparisons instead of basketball comparisons which had me absolutely lost.

Awesome review my friend! No nonsense, just an honest and thorough review! Subscribed!

Hi I wanna know why my Samsung S22 ultra screen is slyt yellowish vs LCD? Even I'm not in night or eye shield or any filter. Is that normal? Thank you.

Marques love the channel keep up the good work. How do you feel about the samsung s21ultra vs the s22+. Your thought which is the better phone in your opinion?

I like the change on the vibration motor actually. I find the Samsung vibration super excessive compared to other phones and it drives me crazy when my coworkers phone vibrates on the table next to me. This X axis thing is gonna make it more similar to the iPhone I think.

Well done MKBHD! Having been an all-time Note fan it is pleasurable to see the Samsung S line merge with the Note line. I noticed I do not use the s-pen a whole lot but I am always pleased to have it when I want to use it, so this is a keeper for me and I am definitely upgrading to this. The specs and the features here can naturally make this a candidate for the phone of the year, fingers crossed.

I just did a warranty claim in the s21 ultra but they didn't have any and could "only" offer me the 22 ultra at no extra charge. Very excited to get this phone on Monday!

Anybody knows where can I find the wallpaper?

The battery life will optimize once the phoe starts to understand your pattern of use. It has happened to the last 2 phones I've owned.

I've always used the S Pen more for simple navigating instead of using my fingers. Which is faster, more accurate & it doesn't dirty your screen up with smudges either.

Does this phone has dual-sim?? I asked the help online on Samsung and they said no! but all the articles says yes...

I lost this phone in 6ft of water for 48 hours and when I finally found it , the phone was still on and I have had no problems with it so far since.

As someone who's been using the Note 9 since its release date, the S22 Ultra is definitely going to be a worthy upgrade for me.

I love this phone so much! I love the multitasking/split screen capability & s pen.

hi which weather widget are you using in the video ?

Awesome review thanks I’m thinking of dumping iPhones soon looking for a phone you can customise more yourself. I have a couple of questions on the s21 ultra can you use a photo from your albums as a screensavers? And can you choose music from your library as ringtones and lastly battery life compared to the iPhone 13 pro max thank you

The s22 ultra is finally making me return to Samsung, thanks for the review my guy! Looking forward to finally experiencing it this week

Can't get over how good S 21 design is. They should go back to it next year. Apart from that S 22 is a good step up

Watching on the 22 ultra The vibration motor does make me miss calls and or messages Other than that and the battery this thing is immaculate

Actually heard Marques review but wondering this... What does Andrew think of the S22 Ultra and what is his daily driver? Thanks Marques been a fan for years!!

The music and music quality of the songs in your videos are just 🤌🏽

Anytime I see that shot of the phone at the top of the stairs knowing fully well it’s a 1 person shot with Marques holding the kimono and a massive cinema lens, I’m more and more impressed that its in focus, and he hasn’t dropped a phone down the stairs.
