Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra initial review: Ultimate reinvention?

The Ultra is a total departure for the S22 series, integrating an S Pen stylus, which makes it a lot like a Note that never was. Many features aren't hugely different to the outgoing S21 Ultra, however, but this handset is all about refinement - from that punchy curved edge display to the distinctive rear cameras arrangement.
Pros:
  • Hugely bright and punchy screen with adaptive refresh
  • Distinctive camera design is eye-catching - wholly different to other S22 models
  • Integrated S Pen stylus - the software and response is super
Cons:
  • Not everyone will want the built-in S Pen stylus - this is S series not Note
  • No microSD card expansion
  • Many features of minor difference to S21 Ultra
  • Expect a big price tag

Samsung Galaxy S22 ULTRA 5G (256GB, Burgundy) AU - Excellent review

Samsung has been leading up to this moment since the introduction of the Galaxy S20 Ultra and the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, which just so happened to be the final in that series. They’ve worked to separate the “Ultra” line of devices from others in the family, in hopes to sell them as a separate...

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra review: Ultimate reinvention?

The Ultra is a total departure for the Galaxy S22 series, integrating a little S Pen stylus, which makes it rather like the Note that never was. Many features aren't hugely different to the outgoing S21 Ultra, however, but this handset is all about refinement - from that punchy curved edge display to the distinctive rear cameras arrangement - and there's no denying the quality of the cameras on offer here.
Pros:
  • Bright and punchy screen with adaptive refresh rate
  • Distinctive camera design is eye-catching - and it's very capable too
  • Integrated S Pen stylus is great (but not everyone will use it)
Cons:
  • Battery life is questionable
  • Software not entirely bug-free
  • Not everyone will want the built-in S Pen stylus - this is S series not a Note after all
  • No microSD card expansion
  • Pricey

Samsung Galaxy S22 ULTRA 5G (256GB, Burgundy) AU - Excellent review

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra looks and feels awesome and in terms of features and performance will beat any Android phone out there in nearly every category. We would have liked it more if it actually looked like an S22 series smartphone but then, perhaps this is Samsung’s way of answering...

Samsung Galaxy S22 ULTRA 5G (256GB, Burgundy) AU - Excellent review

The S22 Ultra should really be called a Galaxy Note. It’s a giant phone for power users, offering unrivalled features, from the fantastic camera with more optical zoom than any other to the long battery life, stunning display and powerful built-in S Pen stylus.
Pros:
  • Pros: huge 120Hz screen, fantastic and flexible camera with 3x and 10x optical zoom, One UI, S Pen stylus, good performance, long battery, five years of software support, contains recycled materials.
Cons:
  • Cons: huge, heavy, very expensive, S Pen may be superfluous feature for many, gaming performance variable for EU model.
