What has Samsung equipped for S22 Ultra to please both S fans and Note fans?

The Galaxy S22 Ultra is a big change for the Galaxy S series. If the Galaxy S21 Ultra merely supports the S Pen, the Galaxy S22 Ultra has essentially become a Galaxy Note, minus the name.

Samsung’s highest-end flagship has a dedicated S Pen slot, and it really feels like Samsung has revived the Galaxy Note after 2021 without launching a new model. However, it carries the Galaxy S brand and follows the launch schedule of this series, along with the Galaxy S22 and S22+. The other two Galaxy Ss go in a more conventional direction, in line with the previous S series.

Redesigning the Galaxy S22 Ultra was indeed a risky move for Samsung, but it may have paid off when the company said user demand for this product line was very high. In the first steps, Samsung seems to be on the right track to please both Galaxy S and Note fans.

Time will tell whether the Galaxy S22 Ultra succeeds in the global market, but now let’s take a look at what Samsung has equipped with the Galaxy S22 Ultra in an attempt to make both S and Note fans happy. .

Built-in S Pen – more than just a tool for quick notes

The built-in S Pen has been one of the hottest features for Galaxy Note fans since Samsung decided to discontinue the product line last year. The Galaxy S22 Ultra has fulfilled the plan of change that Samsung laid out on the Galaxy S21 Ultra, and with a dedicated S Pen slot and powerful hardware, the S22 Ultra is trying to please fans of both models.

On the one hand, die-hard Galaxy S fans might argue that the S22 Ultra has lost something in the transition to the S Pen, which is that the design of the S22 Ultra now fully reflects the Galaxy Note line and separates it from the rest of the world. different from S22/S22+ and previous S series.

On the other hand, it seems that the integration of the S Pen does not have much impact on the internal components of the Galaxy S22 Ultra. Compared to the Galaxy S21 Ultra, the new flagship still has a 5,000mAh battery and moreover increases the fast charging capacity to 45W.

So, what does the S Pen offer, and why is it the ‘best feature’ on this list? The truth is that most of the time, the S Pen may not change the way you use your smartphone, but even fans of the Galaxy S might find it a useful tool in certain situations if have a chance to use.

You may not use the Air Actions feature often, but the S Pen will always be with you whenever you want to record or draw quickly.

Even if you don’t intend to use the S Pen with Samsung Notes or similar drawing/notes apps, the S Pen still has its other uses.

For example, users can use the S Pen for better photo editing. You can do much more precise photo editing with the S Pen using the Spot Fixer feature introduced with One UI 2.1. And don’t forget that you can also use the S Pen as a remote shutter button.

Brighter display, improved S Pen response

Along with the built-in S Pen, the S22 Ultra also features improved Wacom circuitry and the S Pen’s ultra-low latency of just 2.8 milliseconds, down from the S21 Ultra’s 9 milliseconds.

However, excluding the S Pen, the Galaxy S22 Ultra still has one of the most impressive AMOLED screens available today. The new 6.8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen can reach 1,750 nits of brightness in automatic mode, higher than the maximum brightness of 1,500 nits of the Galaxy S21 Ultra.

Galaxy S22 Ultra is guaranteed to receive four major Android OS upgrades

Samsung has announced four major Android OS upgrades for a number of Galaxy devices – including the S22 series. This has put Samsung at the forefront of Android updates. Galaxy S22 Ultra customers can expect Android 13, 14, 15, and Android 16 in the coming years.

Additionally, devices that are eligible for the four Android OS upgrades also receive security patches for at least five years. That means if you want, you can use the Galaxy S22 Ultra for the next half decade without worrying about software.

Main camera integrated with Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok

For many smartphone users, social media is where they use the camera the most. The camera application of the device is often integrated with more advanced modes than the camera on social networking applications.

Samsung has announced a partnership with three major social networking apps, making its proprietary camera features accessible directly from within the social networking app’s interface.

Galaxy S22 Ultra users can use advanced Samsung camera features such as Night Mode and Super Resolution directly from the camera of Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok. That means you don’t need to take photos or record videos with the default camera app first, and then put them on social media apps.

These features make the Galaxy S22 Ultra the best phone for social media creators, as well as casual users.

Galaxy S22 Ultra supports 45W fast charging and has the largest battery in the “Note series”

Perhaps pressured by Chinese firms, Samsung decided to upgrade the super-fast charging capabilities on its products. The Galaxy S22 Ultra supports 45W charging, compared to last year’s 25W.

In addition to 45W charging, if you consider the Galaxy S22 Ultra as the spiritual successor of the Galaxy Note, it is also the Note with the largest battery ever. Note 20 Ultra has a 4,500mAh battery with 25W charging capacity, Galaxy S22 Ultra has more than 500mAh, although there is still a slot for the S Pen.

The power and energy efficiency of the 4nm . chipset

Time will tell whether Samsung’s new Exynos 2200 chipset falls short of expectations. However, the Galaxy S22 Ultra is still guaranteed power in markets using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset.

The Exynos 2200 is also manufactured on the 4nm process, in theory, it will be more powerful and energy-efficient than the previous generation, like Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 compared to 888.

However, the case of the Exynos 2200 is more difficult to predict because it is equipped with the all-new Xclipse 920 graphics chip developed in cooperation with AMD. Although this is a chip with potential, it is possible that Samsung needs to continue to optimize it through future updates.

Armor nhôm Aluminum Frame

Finally, if you plan to use the Galaxy S22 Ultra for the next 5 years until you get the final security patch, you’ll need a phone that’s durable enough to stand the test of time. It needs to have good enough design quality to last through thousands of hours of use over half a decade.

Of course there will be some performance degradation in the long run, but in terms of “exterior”, Samsung has packed the best things to make the S22 Ultra last.

The front and back of the device is Gorilla Glass Victus+ and has an Armor aluminum frame that Samsung advertises as improving its resistance to drops and scratches. The channel JerryRigEverything also tested the durability of the S22 Ultra and the device “survived” the harsh tests.

With the S22 Ultra, it can be seen that Samsung wants to merge both of its super products into one phone, so that it can both attract fans of the Galaxy Note series and still have all the things that S Ultra users expect. .
