In our Samsung Galaxy S22 review, we loved the phone’s bright 120Hz display, processing power, and compact, durable design. We were also fond of its rear triple camera with 3x optical zoom. We gave the Samsung Galaxy S22 an overall rating of 4.5 out of 5-stars and our hard-to-get Editor’s Choice award.
In real-world testing, the Galaxy S22 tackled everything we threw at it. Even when we opened 12 Google Chrome tabs with Netflix streaming in the background while switching between multiple apps — the Galaxy S22 didn’t stutter or lag.
If you’re due for an upgrade or switching from an iPhone, the Galaxy S22 is worth considering.
