Samsung Galaxy S22+ 

Intro

While the Galaxy S22 Ultra model stole the thunder at the 2022 Samsung Unpacked event, it is the Galaxy S22 Plus that might actually be the more suitable big screen phone to buy for the average user.

The Galaxy S22 Plus is missing some features from the Ultra model, but that is exactly what makes it special: if you don't use an S Pen regularly, you probably won't want one in your phone, and not having that means you get a phone that is significantly lighter and not as gargantuan, so you can comfortably carry it in your pocket.

So yes, the Galaxy S22 Plus is that golden middle ground: not too small, and not too large, it has a premium glass back, dissipates heat better than compact models, and battery life is far superior to a mini phone. And compared to last year's S21 Plus model, the new Galaxy does all of that in a more compact form factor, too!

However, after a bit of testing, it turns out that the Galaxy S22 Plus is hardly bringing anything new to the table and is pretty much on par with last year's Galaxy S21 Plus. I'd even dare say it's worse in some key aspects, like sustained performance and image quality in certain scenes. Overall, the new middle child in the Galaxy flagship family is doing little to inspire confidence. Still, what's better about the S22 Plus than its predecessor?

Let's explore it in more detail below!
