Design

The vanilla Samsung Galaxy S22 and the Galaxy S22 Plus have almost the same design. The camera modules have the same form factor and their design is an upgraded version of the Galaxy S21 series. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, instead, is totally different from its two siblings. It comes with a design reminiscent of the Galaxy Note series, as well as four cameras placed directly in the back cover without a camera module. It is bigger and it has a slot for the S Pen. Further, unlike its two internal rivals, it has a curved screen at the sides. All the phones from the Samsung Galaxy S22 series are waterproof and dustproof with the IP68 certification, they sport a glass back protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+ and an aluminum frame.

 

Display

Besides having a different design, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra comes with an improved display if compared to the vanilla and the Plus version. It is an AMOLED panel with a diagonal of 6.8 inches, an adaptive refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz, a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440p, and the HDR10+ standard. The Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ come with the same display specifications and what changes between these two models is the diagonal: the Galaxy S22 is very compact thanks to a 6.1-inch display, while the Plus has a standard 6.6-inch panel. In both cases, you get a Full HD+ resolution instead of Quad HD+.

 

Specs & Software

All these phones are equipped with the same processors: Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in select markets and Samsung Exynos 2200 in the remaining ones. The Samsung Galaxy S22 and the Plus offer 8 GB of RAM and either 128 or 256 GB of native storage, while the Galaxy S22 Ultra is actually better because it sports up to 12 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of internal storage. The whole series runs Android 12 out of the box and will get the same software treatment with four years of major updates.

 

Camera

Samsung Galaxy S22 and S22+ are great camera phones packing a 50 MP main camera with OIS, a 10 MP telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom, and a 12 MP ultrawide camera. But the Galaxy S22 Ultra is way better as it replaces the 50 MP main camera with a better 108 MP one and it adds a 10 MP periscopic sensor with 10x optical zoom and OIS. Even the front camera is superior with its 40 MP resolution and 4K video recording at 60 fps.

 

Battery

The Samsung Galaxy S22 has the smallest battery with just 3700 mAh, the Plus comes with 4500 mAh, and the Ultra has a whopping 5000 mAh battery. The Plus and the Ultra also get a faster 45W charging technology.

 

Price

Samsung Galaxy S22 is priced at $800/€850, the Plus costs $999/€1050, and the Ultra starts from $1200/€1250. Despite the price, the S22 Ultra wins the value for money comparison thanks to the S Pen, a superior display, a big battery, and better cameras.
