The Galaxy S22 Plus has an elegant glass and metal design and it features a beautiful 6.6-inch OLED 120Hz screen that neither feels too large nor too small.
The only compromise – if I may call it that – you’ll be making is that for $450 less, you’ll get to own a phone powered by the snappy and responsive Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 and not the snappier and even more responsive Snapdragon 8 Gen 2.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 doesn’t deliver noticeably faster performance than the Gen 1 and the only reason to go for the former would be if you like to play games for long stretches. Otherwise, the user experience is quite similar.
The S22 Plus has a 4,500mAh battery and should last you a day and a half if you don’t spend most of your day playing games and watching videos. The phone will be supported until early 2027.
