    I 100% agree with you on the unboxing experience thing, when i bought my S10+ (still rocking it) i was so satisfied with the experience. The box itself wasn't special but inside it was: The phone, the CHARGER, USB to USB C cable, high quality AKG tuned earbuds with extra ear tips AND even a USB to USB C converter. It felt like it was worth every penny!

    I am honestly impressed by the depth someone finally took to rewiew the S22 ultra.
    I also cannot agree more about the fact that removing everything from the box, the lack of the SD card slot, the jack, the high price tag is stupid unacceptable. Thank you for saying those things in a video, a few others to no one else did that because they are too compliant with manufacturer sh!t.
    I hope Samsung has a good look at this video!

    • @cremedelacreme.
      @cremedelacreme. 2 года назад +38

      One thing I dont like about Samsung is they often follow Apple's footsteps, then the other Android manufactures follow up. They are removing features and charging more. Think about this. The Note 10 plus comes with 12gb ram standard and 256gb and external mirco SD. We are in 2022 and the S22 U only has 8gb ram. The note 10 came with 8gb. Note 9 came with 6gb and had an option for 8gb ram and 128gb storage. So its the same or less storage options when storage is becoming cheaper to Floss's point. I remember 5 years ago 256gb sd cards were $300. now you can get them for $50. Why are we getting less features for higher prices? Makes no sense. The standard should be 512gb and 16gb ram with micro sd slot. Bring back the IR blaster (yes that was on the galaxy S5!!). It also featured dual camera mode using both the front and back cameras simultaneously which was then removed, and finally released again on the S21 as a "new feature." I like the S22U but just hate the fact that features are removed. For some people they may not use all the features, and that is fine, but that doesn't mean remove the feature entirely. Keep the features available for those who want to use it.

      I say this as a Samsung fanboy on my note 20 ultra right now. The s9 series has way better speakers than the note 20 ultra or s22 ultra. It sucks. They keep skimping out more and more each year.
      It sucks that I don't like iOS because I used to feel like Samsung was the android version of apple phones, but now Samsung is not that in my mind.

      Solid day battery life but not much more - I don't mind though as the super fast charging means I don't need to charge it overnight anymore! The 120Hz screen with the amazing panel + S Pen makes it a far superior experience overall.

We are in the age where we don't need to upgrade every year and they really ran out of innovative ways to sell phones and it's just little incremental updates year to year.

    Thanks so much for the film-length review, Floss.
    Been following your content since 4 years, not the longest but I always look at your stuffs first before I consider any phone changes just for a more informed purchase.
    Took me a while before I finally decide to take a dip with the S22 Ultra. And frankly I am so glad with the performance and display of this thing.
    The S-pen really is something else, but if I am honest I probably won't be using it too much in everyday use, but I'd rather have the option to use it whenever I want.
    And as for the battery life debacle, well, I could easily get through a work-day without worrying it'll konk out since I keep my brightness moderate, only using FHD+ (the QHD I sometimes use for Netflix viewing), and not in 100% brightness blast since I don't wanna burn my retinas with all that nits. The 45W charge support is kind of a mystery since whenever I put it on my GaN 100W charger it will sometimes measure up to 5500 or even 6000 ma (1000 = 10W charging) when it's not heating up over 40 C and it was kinda interesting that it can charge that fast in short period before it throttle down to like 33W later (which is probably why it still needs 1 hour to charge up from 0 to 100%)
    I'm using the Ampere app from Playstore to do the measurement btw, not the most accurate like it was with those measuring devices but yeah, it's something at least.
    Putting that aside, I definitely love this phone based on just its massive screen, quad HD display and that dynamic amoled x2 display, and of course the S-pen.
    For me though, I need a good case to protect my investment, so I ordered the Supcase UB Pro for it too, in black color of course.
    Keep doing what you do, man.

Bc if you use a case, you'll never get accidental touches, and you can confidently put your phone on a surface facing down. The curved display is amazing bc it makes the experience emersive af.

I personally love the s-pen and I am gutted about the lack of expandable storage but I'll live without it. Its a brilliant upgrade from a note 9 for me and I know I'll keep this phone for 5 years now. As Floss has said, the yearly upgrades just are not enough to open your wallet. The changes these companies are making to their phones are not worth that kind of money. So, yes, its worth the upgrade in my opinion.

    Most reviews say nothing about the improved modem over the past few years x50 to x55 x60 x65 ect. It is HUGE as far as connectivity to LTE and 5G network bands. Now they are incorporated into the CPU instead separate like on the note 20 ultra and prior and are absolutely monumental for good reception and speed. One of the most important features taken for granted and never reviewed. This phone with series 8 gen 1 has the most advanced modem to date for excellent connectivity and speed in the most remote places.

      @@Archer_Legend Those are just baseless rumours as far as i know, Prove me wrong if you have a source. The reason the speakers aren’t as good is cuz the N20U had an S-Pen so the battery was downgraded to 4500mAh, Which wasn’t enough as android lacks the optimization to get amazing battery performance with small cells, The S22U has an S-Pen and a 5000 mAh battery with the cost of being slightly larger, Now it should be clear that area has a positive relationship with sound quality (i’ll explain if needed in another comment) so due to the 5000mAh battery and S-Pen taking extra space, and since they cant afford to make the phone even wider than it is, they decided to downgrade the speakers a bit (It can get as loud as some top tier flagships but not for long)

      I'm sorry to hear that. All these negative reviews and quality issues that people are having with the S22 Ultra's makes me want to hold on to my Pixel 6 Pro for awhile. And it's much cheaper.

    I just upgraded to the S22U from a Note 20 Ultra. I got my S22U yesterday. The only reason I switched was because the camera on the S22U allows you to zoom out when recording video, and I like that crystal clear buttery smooth QHD+ 120hz. I absolutely agree with you though that if you have a N20U to stay with it, the upgrades on the S22U are VERY minimal.

      @@RagingBad yeah but I needed the opposite, i needed it to zoom out, which you can't do with the N20U. The wide angle lens was only for pictures not video. I don't know if they've changed that with a software update or something I just know that at the time when i had the N20U you could not shoot video using the wide angle camera.

    Big brotha Floss Almighty! Had a note 8, new, moved to the original Gatsby fold, New. Big screen just died on a player and got me sour on the foldable. Should I grab this..... Wait for the newest fold, or just ride around with a thick phone and little screen until something calls me lol?
