It's a huge phone to start off with! The display is beautiful and the phone i is super snappy. The cameras are amazing and the battery will get you through the whole day easily, with juice leftover to spare yet. Best phone I've owned so far.

This phone is big, but just a little biggen than the Apple Max pro series. The build quality is top notch! Gives you a premium feel. Not for single hand use, but you have a feature to make screen small temporarily so it can be used by single hand, although I do not use it.
It is fast, still not as fast as my previous iPhone 12 Pro Max, but still enjoyable.
Customization! You can customize every single aspect of UI, the things never available on any iPhone! I know some people say you do not need it, but when you try it - you understand that having the ability to change a lot of system settings gives you freedom to make the device more personal for you!
Battery wise, it is hard to judge from a few days of use. The more you use, the more battery drains. And because you want to use this phone a lot often - you will have less battery available.
Camera is the best, especially super zoom!

Upgraded from an S20 to S22 Ultra and was concerned about the size difference. Although this phone is a lot bigger its also compact and having the stylus is a plus. Camera quality is great and the phone is fast. Not sure I will ever "downgrade" to the entry level version on my next upgrade. Battery life on this phone is fantastic and the charging time with the ultra fast charger (bought separately) is amazing. In 5 minutes I get over 15% charge time.

S22 Ultra 256 GB is a great phone lighting fast and performs flawlessly, an only issue encountered is ghosting on Wii charging lights up if the phone is on during the night. My Note9 never did this but this phone is far superior in every way as a result. T tried to tweak it for this unable so far to find the culprit or setting which allows this happening. Going to replace the cord on the Verizon Wii charger to see if matters could be notifications signaling the phone but having it in do not disturb mode failed to correct it. Turning the phone off at night stops this annoyance.

I upgraded from a Samsung 9plus. The extra size and width on this phone make it a win. My texting is much better. The screen quality is unreal. The most noticeable thing was in bright light. I have never seen a screen that looked so good and not bleached out by the sun. The camera is phenomenal! I still have yet to try all of the features. Setting it up was a snap. I connected my old phone and went to it. I can say I sorta regret not getting the 512k but I will learn to use the cloud more as I do pay for it. The weight and thickness on this phone compared to my 9 plus for sure is noticeable. It is heavy but that part doesn't bother me at all. The battery life is hard for me to judge as I am a heavy user. So far I can say I do charge it a couple times a day but again, I am a heavy user. I have watched 4k video and 8k (or so it said) and all was amazing. People say you can't tell the difference on a small screen but you can. I have used Samsung notes in the past and this is essentially a Note. It took me about 5 weeks to get the phone but I was patient. I don't blame Best Buy like others do as it wasn't their fault. I had a perfectly good phone to use. The store person warned me that he doubted it would be delivered on April 25th so I never even planned on it. It was the Samsung company's fault. They underestimated demand and of course the ongoing chip shortage probably was most of the problem. Anyway the phone itself. I do suggest getting the 256 minimum. My other was a 128 but I had a 256 card inserted. So I was ok. You just have to watch with such high resolution video and photos that you don't fill this up. I think you can't go wrong with this phone. I am a Realtor and I used it tons for business. Hence the high usage.

I bought this phone for my mother on her birthday and she was so happy that she is still figuring how many more settings she can play with compared to her old phone. Excellent long lasting battery. Fast charging speed. Amazing colors and speed. Even the dolby atmos speaker when turned on was something she didn't know she needed before on a phone. Especially the storage you buy it at made her amazed how far phones have come.

The Note 22 Ultra is a great device. I updated from a Note 9. My only complaint would be the absence of the headphone jack. I've never been a fan of wireless earbuds, and even though adapters exist that enable charging and talking, they aren't without their glitches. One of the reasons I waited so long to upgrade, and considered other devices. Absence of LEDs takes some getting used to, but there is an app that can be downloaded to add that capability to the phone. Camera is excellent; night vision is impressive. I was open to either an iPhone or different device. After extensive research, the Galaxy Note Ultra series was the one that was repeatedly recommended to keep up with the demands of running my business.

Amazing Phone/Had for 2+ Years

Honestly a great phone to have. I've had mine for about 2 years (pushing for 3) and there have been no problems with it at all. No cracks, no internal damaging and it really can take a beating. I went almost half a year without a case and it still help up really well. If you're looking for a phone thats not so pricey like the newer models but still want a reliable phone, this one is your go to. The stylus really changes things up, if you want to tske pictures you can use the stylus like a little clicker for photos or if you're hands are full you can write hand notes for quick note taking. Amazing phone 30/10

I've been watching, studying & testing this Samsung S22 Ultra for months while strategizing to purchase it around holiday time... which I did & got a great price doing it! This phone is everything that it was advertised to be for me thus far! It does almost everything one could ask for a phone, camera & a micro pc & it does it all well! I'm 2 months into it & I'm still reading the manual & learning about its many wonderful features even though I am a amatuer techie. It's great for personel & business uses alike. The speed of everything, smoothness of scrolling & switching of functions, the beautiful screen resolution, the quality of calls, the options of writng notes is all top notch. Some complain about the high price but if you're using most of its features, you're getting your money's worth! This phone makes me money with my various businesses from real estate to music production & it enhances my personal life by keeping me in touch with family & friends through rich media content. I had to @ least get the 256GB version because with the high end pictures, video capabilities & graphics, I didnt think the 128GB version would have enough RAM memory to last the fewvyears that I plan to have this phone. The 512GB version was sold out when I made my purchase or I probably would've gotten that one but the 256GB version should hold me... if not, I can just dump my media onto my pc, an external drive or use a free 100GB online app for extra storage. I highly recommend this S22 Ultra to those that can afford it & will use many of its great features, if not I recommend purchasing one of the other lesser & more affordable S22 options. These are great phones for work, rest & play!

Amazing flagship with some temporary gripes

This phone is a very nice phone but the release stock was rough as many people didn't receive it on time due to supply issues which I understand but once it arrived I began to use this phone daily from second week of March I believe.
Display: The screen is amazing and pretty much most Samsung amoleds are these days. I have used the note 20 ultra and s21 ultra and this one is amazing in color reproduction, clarity and it's very very bright just like those were.
Camera: the main camera is sharp and vibrant and packs a punch in various shooting situations, the wide angle is great in sharpness and color and has a pretty wide field of view. The telephoto 3x and 10x and great and I think best telephoto on any phone currently due to having both 3x and 10x optical giving more clarity at those zooms and further digital zooms. The night mode is improved and pretty amazing. The night mode on Samsung phones were already amazing but wow it's even better here. One of the best cameras I've used. If anyone is wondering though this camera vs iphone 13 pro max I would say this one is better due to the better overall. Iphone 13 pro is amazing but this is even higher.
Battery Life: The battery the past almost two months has been pretty good and easily gets me through my day considering that this phone does so much. I do wish it to last a bit more though and maybe that's asking too much haha. I have been spoiled a bit by the iphone 13 pro max which the battery lasted for days without a charge but this phone is way more feature packed than any iphone although I love iphone too. 45 watt charging is overdue upgrade and it's fast enough to charge up while I get ready for work or when I'm about to go out so no issues there.
Performance/Software: When the phone first released it was quite buggy the software. To be frank it was jittery and stuttering all over the place but the March update fixed so many bugs and now the phone runs much smoother but there are still bugs here that hopefully Samsung will get rid of in the coming months because as of right now even though the phone is running nicely it's not as smooth as last years s21 ultra or even the note 20 from 2020. Hardware wise this phone is More powerful than both of the phones I just mentioned but so far the software bugs are my only real gripes so if someone is considering this phone I'd like to share my experience on that. It's just the overall 120hz doesn't feel entirely smooth and Polished as it seems to drop down, along with some stutters in scrolling, and animations.
Once everything is polished I will give it a five star. Overall quite a nice phone just wish the software was polished out of box.

Excellent phone, but expect it to be at this price. Had a hard time finding the higher memory models as 128gb was just not enough for long term. I hate that Samsung has no SD card memory upgrade option. Phone is very snappy and the screen is first class. The pen is a welcomed addition as it replaces the Note line up. Screen is amazing as always.
