**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S22 Family Thread ****

Yeah I was miffed when there were literally no videos or photos showing the matte frame, only passing comments but I was sure it had to be matte.

As for camera, looking forward to it, the next full moon you can be sure I'll be out grabbing closeups of that bad boy :D


Wonder id the S-pen for the exclusive colours will be available to purchase separately
 
Finally mine is now showing "Preparing Dispatch" !!! so looks like I will be getting mine tomorrow with any luck.

Also graphite looks great.
 
Is the frame the same colour on all the exclusive ones?
Mine is red and the frame looks to be black but I suppose as your phone is grey it makes the edges not look as black in photos perhaps!

Love that colour though! But I wanted RED!
 
The corners are gonna take some getting used to as it's a bit sharper so digs into the palm! Feels quite hefty though, but doesn't feel as massive as I was expecting though thanks to still being pretty slim on thickness and the rounded frame edges.

All the exclusive colours have a matte black frame whihc I think sets it off nicely. I liken it to a Porsche 992 GT3 where the main and mirror caps are one colour, with the rest of the "trims" being matte black as standard :D
Finally nice to see the Graphite colour, looking forward to getting mine.

@mrk

Any word on performance yet?


It's still copying stuff and installing apps so a ways to go but so far I've not experienced any stutters etc yet and have been configuring settings and stuff so far.
I checked for updates too but none available so looks like this shipped with the latest version which makes sense since the exclusives people will get this week were only made the past week or so.
 
So glad I went for Graphite and waited...Damn that looks good :D

@mrk - are you using Smart Switch to move over?

I did yeah, just used it to copy everything over but some apps like WhatsApp it says it cannot restore as that needs to be done manually for backups of chats etc so will do that shortly.

It's copied over all my settings and stuff too so will reboot shortly and set up individual app notification tones as they need to be done then copy over the 512GB micro SD card to internal storage.
 
Had a message saying mine is to be delayed.....aaaargh, fortunately only by a few days, should be arriving on the 24th, I was getting concerned with lack of notificationor movement and was going to cancel, but all is good.
 
Wiping the partition cache has improved my battery life, all on mobile data, WQHD and 120Hz

Also got my Buds today. Impressed with the build quality, feels premium. Sound is also good and AKG tuning is very enjoyable. But I wouldn't be keeping as my Sony WF-1000MX4 still blows it out of the water in terms of sound quality (has more detail/separation) and noise canceling.
 
Sold my s22 ultra. The performance was shocking. I was prepared to sacrifice the high cost of the device and the weight for the spen but the performance was way beyond what I expected. I know it's subjective but for someone like me, who uses the phone for work and play the performance drop was too much.

Performance drop vs what?
