Im really thinking about of picking this phone up new, and newly sealed in the box for 2024. I know this a unpopular opinion but I like the curved edges of the screen.
If I were you I'd choose the S23 Ultra instead, the screen is still curved yet the phone has a much better power management which means the battery lasts twice as long. The S22 Ultra's battery life is pretty bad because of the cpu.
I am the proud owner of a Sky Blue S22 Ultra with the dreaded Exynos processor. I LOVE my phone. I never understood all the negativity around the S22 Ultra. It is a beast of a phone. I get solid battery life, I get great photos, I get great call quality and of course that big screen is amazing for watching movies and content. Do NOT listen to the haters. It is truly one of the best value for money used phones on the market. Just make sure you pick one up still in good condition. I guarantee you will not be unhappy with your purchase. Friend of mine even has the S21 Ultra and that is still amazing and going strong.
My questions: 1: S22 ultra got the AI updates ? 2: Is Exynos processors good enough after the updates, or I need to get a Snapdragon as mandatory ? 3: Is 8 bg ram enough or I need to get one with 12 gb ?
So it's got some AI updates but nothing heavy as advertised on the S24 and I suspect for future phones. The Exynos processor is very good but for heavy usage such as gaming etc the snap dragon on this model is probably the better option. 8 GB ram is more than good enough but the option is there for 16GB

The curved edges are definitely a bit of a debate but I like them too, so go for it!

Just got one off ebay for 330 excellent condition, was on Android 13 with May 23 security patch,so it hadn't been used in awhile
It is a very good phone in my opinion, hope you enjoy it!
Getting this phone very soon ......

I hear you and I definitely agree, it should be good for the next few years at optimum performance

3: Is 8 bg ram enough or I need to get one with 12 gb ?
1. No
2. For heavy gaming or emulation, yes
3. Any 8gb or 12gb is good enough

Around £500 in the UK, maybe cheaper if slightly used
