Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S22 series at its February 2022 ‘Unpacked’ event.
I went hands-on with the Galaxy S22 Ultra ahead of its reveal and offered up my initial impressions of the device, however, now that I have the S22 Ultra in my hands, I was able to put it through its paces ahead of my full review.
It’s worth noting that Samsung’s Galaxy S22 series are the first smartphones in Canada to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. Qualcomm’s 8 Gen 1 focuses on 5G, AI, and uses the 4th-gen Snapdragon X65 5G Modem-RF system, which Qualcomm says can hit 10-gigabit download speeds.
In the charts above, you can see how Qualcomm’s new chipset in the Galaxy S22 series performs pretty similarly to the Snapdragon 888 in the S21 series in terms of single-core and multi-core scores.
Additionally, the iPhone 13 Pro Max’s A15 Bionic still leads the pack, with the Pixel 6′s Tensor chip coming in last.
That said, I don’t put much stock into benchmarks because a device can still offer a great experience and benchmark relatively low. For example, the Pixel 5 remains a great smartphone despite only offering a single-core score of 589 and a multi-core score of 1,603.
The Galaxy S22 Ultra’s scores are by no means low, but they are weirdly slightly under than the S22+ for some reason.
At its ‘ Unpacked ‘ event today, Samsung officially unveiled its latest S-Series flagship devices, including the S22, S22+ and the S22 Ultra. While the devices are now available for pre-order in Canada, it’s a good idea to know how the tech giant’s latest flagships compare to its predecessors.
You may be wondering why we decided to add the Note to the mix. In a sense, this year’s S22 Ultra looks like the S21 Ultra and the Note 20 Ultra had a baby. It features S-Pen support — and even comes with one — along with a considerably higher price tag, something the discontinued Note series is known for.
Let’s dive in and see how the S22 series — released over the past three years — compares to each other.

Display and design
The latest S22 Ultra features a 120Hz Quad HD+ 6.8-inch display with a peak brightness of 1,750 nits, which is higher than the S21 Ultra’s 1,500 nits 6.8-inch 120Hz Quad HD+ display. While less bright than the S22 Ultra, the Note 20 Ultra features 1,609 nits of brightness, which is higher than its successor, the S21 Ultra. The Note 20 Ultra also features a slightly bigger screen, measuring in at 6.9-inches along with a 120Hz Quad HD+ display.
All three devices have a Corning Gorilla Glass Victus screen, along with always-on displays and HDR10+ support. It’s worth noting that all three devices are IP68 dust and water-resistant too, which means they can be submerged up to 1.5m underwater for about 30 minutes.
Surprisingly, the Note 20 Ultra weighs the least of the bunch, coming in at 208g, followed by the S21 Ultra at 227g and the S22 Ultra (heaviest) at 228g.
The odd one out is the 2021-released S21 Ultra, as it doesn’t come with a stylus, and the other two devices do. t’s worth noting that while the S21 Ultra doesn’t come with a stylus, it does support stylus functionality, which means you can purchase an S-Pen separately, and it will work with the device.
Cameras
Samsung takes great pride in its camera tech, and rightfully so. Its introduction of 100x zoom with the S20 Ultra was unprecedented, and the tech has only gotten better since then.
The latest S22 Ultra comes with a quad-camera setup with a camera bump that doesn’t protrude all the way out, but it doesn’t sit flush with the rear either. It features a 108-megapixel f/1.8 main sensor, a 10-megapixel telephoto lens, a 10-megapixel periscope lens and a 12-megapixel ultrawide shooter.
The rear shooters can record 8K at 24fps, 4K at 30 and 60fps and FHD at 30, 60 and 240fps.
On the front, the flagship sports a 40-megapixel selfie camera that can shoot 4K videos at 30 and 60fps and FHD videos at 30fps.
The camera setup on the 2021-released S21 Ultra isn’t that much different. It also sports a 108-megapixel f/1.8 main sensor along with a 10-megapixel periscope lens, a 10-megapixel telephoto lens and a 12-megapixel ultrawide shooter with the same video recording resolutions as the S22 Ultra. The selfie camera on the S21 Ultra is a 40-megapixel f/2.2 one and records 4K at 30 or 60fps.
The Note 20 Ultra, on the other hand, featured a triple camera setup, with a 108-megapixel f/1.8 primary shooter, a 12-megapixel f/3.0 periscope lens and a 12-megapixel ultrawide shooter. The Note 20 Ultra also shoots video at the same resolutions as the S22 Ultra.
The front camera on the Note 20 Ultra however shows that it’s an older device. It features a 10-megapixel f/2.2 shooter that records video in 4K at 30 or 60fps and 1080p at 30fps.
OS, internals and memory
The S22 Ultra ships with the latest Android 12 operating system update and Samsung’s One UI 4.1.
While the older devices shipped with Android 10 (Note 20 Ultra) and Android 11 (S21 Ultra), they too have already received the Android 12 update and can now run on the latest OS.
The Galaxy S22 Ultra sports up to 12GB of RAM, up to 1TB of storage and Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor.
Last year’s S21 Ultra was released with a Snapdragon 888 chipset and features up to 16GB of RAM and up to 512GB of storage, though Samsung Canada currently only has the 12GB RAM, 128GB storage variant listed.
The oldest device in the mix, the Note 20 Ultra, sports a Snapdragon 865 5G+ chipset and features up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage. Samsung Canada currently has the 12GB RAM/128GB storage and 12GB RAM/512GB Note 20 Ultra storage variants listed on its website.
All three devices feature an in-display fingerprint scanner, an accelerometer, gyro, proximity and compass sensors.
Battery
The S22 Ultra and the S21 Ultra both feature a 5,000 mAh battery. The former, however, supports 45W fast charging whereas the latter only supports 24W fast charging.
The Note 20 Ultra, on the other hand, features a slightly smaller 4,500 mAh battery with 25W fast charging.
All three devices are capable of reverse wireless charging at 4.5W.
Colours
The Note 20 Ultra offers the least colour variants of the bunch. The device comes in ‘Mystic Bronze,’ ‘Mystic Black’ and ‘Mystic White’ colourways, though only the bronze and black variants are currently available on Samsung’s website.
On the other hand, the S21 Ultra comes in ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom Silver,’ ‘Phantom Titanium,’ ‘Phantom Navy’ and ‘Phantom Brown’ colourways, though Samsung only has the black variant listed as of right now.
The latest S22 Ultra is available in seven colours, namely, ‘Burgundy,’ ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom White,’ ‘Green,’ ‘Graphite,’ ‘Sky Blue’ and ‘Red.’ Samsung Canada has the S22 Ultra available in all the colour variants.
As usual, Wednesday’s Samsung Unpacked event was chock-full of hardware announcements. However, there were several interesting software announcements alongside the S22 series reveal, including a Google announcement about Duo live sharing.
Live sharing is a new feature coming to Google’s video chat app Duo. It’s similar to Apple’s SharePlay for FaceTime and allows Duo users to via notes, photos, videos, and more simultaneously when in a video call. Like FaceTime, Duo live sharing will only work with a limited number of apps, including YouTube, Google Maps, Samsung Notes and Gallery, and Jamboard, Google’s interactive whiteboard app.
Another catch: Duo live sharing will only be fully supported for Galaxy smartphones and tablets, and Pixel smartphones. Engadgetexplains that only people with supported Samsung or Pixel devices will be able to host live sharing Duo calls, while people with other Android devices will be able to join live sharing calls but not host them.
It’s a bummer that the feature is restricted like this, especially considering Duo’s wide availability. Although FaceTime can be used on Android, it’s extremely limited; Duo, however, has a full app experience on both iOS and Android. If Google fully supported live sharing on multiple devices and platforms, it could potentially go toe-to-toe with FaceTime and SharePlay. Plus, Duo live sharing supports YouTube and SharePlay does not — another advantage Duo could leverage if it didn’t restrict live sharing.
Beyond the Duo feature, Samsung’s Galaxy S22 line will also get access to some other new Android features, like YouTube link previews in Messages and the ability to watch full YouTube videos in Messages without leaving the app. Unlike live sharing, however, the YouTube x Messages features will eventually roll out to all Android devices (except Android Go).
If you order a new Galaxy S22 from a telecom or Best Buy, you can only buy it in ‘Phantom White,’ ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Green’ or ‘Pink Gold.’ There’s no denying that the Pink Gold and Green colours are very appealing, but once you see the colours on Samsung’s site, it’s a different story.
My favourite of the exclusive colours is ‘Cream,’ which was the flagship colour on the Galaxy Flip 3. The other hues include ‘Sky Blue’ and ‘Graphite,’ both of which are Galaxy S22 Ultra exclusive colours as well. The final exclusive option is ‘Violet.’
Samsung has brought back the Galaxy Note form factor with the new Galaxy S22 Ultra, and if you want it in a fun colour, this is how.
Often Samsung will limit the best colour options to devices sold on its website. That means carriers and Best Buy will likely sell the phone in ‘Burgundy,’ ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom White’ and ‘Green.’
Samsung’s online exclusive colours are a more silver/grey-tinted ‘Graphite,’ a very distinctive ‘Sky Blue’ that seems to match the Samsung bespoke fridges, and finally a burnt ‘Red.’ Notably, all of these phones still feature black top/bottom rails so the colouring isn’t as cohesive as the ‘Burgundy’ and ‘Green’ variants.
They still look nice, but it seems like these are just the ‘Phantom Black’ phones with different coloured backplates and S Pens.
Samsung has been improving its Android update support over the past couple of years. Though we typically get Samsung Android updates a bit slower in Canada when compared to the rest of the world, future updates will arrive globally.
Samsung says it’s offering four years of major Android updates on the Galaxy S22 and other recent device releases.
Four years of major Android updates is pretty great considering Google only offers three years of major updates and five years of security patches for the Pixel 6. Samsung is also providing five years of security patches to all Samsung smartphones as well.
Below are the Samsung devices that will receive four years of major Android updates:
Galaxy S22
Galaxy S22+
Galaxy S22 Ultra
Galaxy Tab S8

Galaxy S21
Galaxy S21+
Galaxy S21 Ultra
Galaxy S21 FE
Galaxy Z Fold 3
Galaxy Z Flip 3
Galaxy Watch 4
Galaxy Watch 4 Classic
Upcoming Galaxy A devices
9to5Google points out that Samsung says “up to” four years of major updates, which means it could potentially only give these phones three years of major updates. Hopefully, that’s not the case, though.
Samsung unveiled its latest Galaxy S smartphones, the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra, at its Unpacked event on February 9th. Shortly after, Canadian carriers started revealing their pricing and pre-order details.
We’ve collected the pricing and pre-order information below so you can check out which carrier has the best offer on the S22 series. Some carriers haven’t released pricing yet, so keep in mind that some might be missing from the list below, but we’ll add them as information becomes available.
It’s also worth noting how much these phones cost outright from Samsung:

Telus
Telus revealed its pre-order details, including a special limited-time offer to “double the memory” of the S22 series. According to details on the carrier’s website, customers can get the 256GB S22 Ultra, S22+, or S22 for the same price as the 128GB version. Telus notes that the discount applies automatically. This offer ends on March 10th, 2022 and is only available with a two-year Telus ‘Easy Payment’ financing term.
Galaxy S22 Ultra starts at $0 upfront, $40.29/mo financing for 24 months with Bring-It-Back ($2,210 retail price)
Galaxy S22+ starts at $0 upfront, $37.42/mo financing for 24 months with Bring-It-Back ($1,815 retail price)
Galaxy S22 starts at $0 upfront, $29.42/mo financing for 24 months with Bring-It-Back ($1,445 retail price)
You can learn more about Telus’ Samsung Galaxy S22 pricing here.
Koodo
Telus’ flanker brand Koodo also has the Samsung S22 series available for pre-order, but without the same storage discount. It’s also worth noting that Koodo doesn’t offer financing plans like other carriers — instead, it uses a ‘Tab’ system that reduces the upfront cost of a device and then divides that up as a monthly Tab Charge that customers pay along with their monthly plan cost.
Galaxy S22 Ultra starts at $858 upfront on Tab Plus with a $33/mo Tab cost for 24 months ($2,040 retail price)
Galaxy S22+ starts at $608 upfront on Tab Plus with a $33/mo Tab cost for 24 months ($1,730 retail price)
Galaxy S22 starts at $308 upfront on Tab Plus with a $33/mo Tab cost for 24 months ($1,360 retail price)
Shaw-owned regional carrier Freedom also offers the double storage deal on the new Samsung Galaxy S22 series. That means Freedom customers can pick up a new S22 device with 256GB of storage for the same price as the 128GB version of the device. That’s a savings of up to $168, depending on which phone you get.
Galaxy S22 starts at $0 upfront, $28/mo MyTab for 24 months with a $50/mo plan on TradeUp ($1,296 retail price)
Galaxy S22+ starts at $0 upfront, $37/mo MyTab for 24 months with a $50/mo plan on TradeUp ($1,656 retail price)
Galaxy S22 Ultra starts at $0 upfront, $40/mo MyTab for 24 months with a $50/mo plan on TradeUp ($1,944 retail price)

Shaw Mobile
Shaw’s Galaxy S22 series pricing is also live, although it’s worth noting that Shaw is a little different since its plans and prices rely on customers’ Shaw internet package. If you’re a Shaw internet customer, make sure to check out the carrier’s website to see what your package will get you.
Additionally, like the others, Shaw offers a limited-time discount on the 256GB S22 models that makes them the same cost as the 128GB models.
Galaxy S22 Ultra starts at $0 down, $72/mo MyTab for 24 months ($1,944 retail price)
Galaxy S22+ starts at $0 down, $60/mo MyTab for 24 months ($1,656 retail price)
Galaxy S22 starts at $0 down, $45/mo MyTab for 24 months ($1,296 retail price)
Toronto-based national carrier Rogers also has the double storage offer, which appears as a discount applied to the 256GB S22 models that brings the price down to match the 128GB versions.
Galaxy S22 Ultra starts at $0 down, $53.83/mo financing (regular $77.21) with Upfront Edge ($2,211 retail price)
Galaxy S22+ starts at $0 down, $46.08/mo financing (regular $63.38) with Upfront Edge ($1,815 retail price)
Galaxy S22 starts at $0 down, $36.08/mo financing (regular $50.46) with Upfront Edge ($1,445 retail price)
Today Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S22 series, but unlike in previous years, the company partnered with Netflix to unveil its new phones. Queen Charlotte (played by Golda Rosheuvel), from the Shondaland and Netflix series Bridgerton, is holding the season’s inventor’s ball at the Palace.
The first invention showed off was a raincoat presented by Lord Macintosh, which Queen Charlotte quickly dismissed. While this is just a brief scene before Tristar revealed the Galaxy S22, if you read between the lines, this is clearly shade being thrown at Apple. In case you weren’t aware, before 1998, Apple’s computers were called Macintosh computers, which is definitely a throwback.
The trailer continues by showing off the S22 and S22+, with the queen being interested in the handset’s camera sensors.
The video ends with Queen Charlotte asking Lord Tristar when the phone will be ready, and he reveals that the phone won’t be available for 209 years. This means that you won’t be seeing the Galaxy S22 or S22+ on the second season of Bridgerton.
Check out our announcement post if you want to learn more about Samsung’s Galaxy S22 series.
As always, the handsets are available in a variety of colours. The S22 and S22+ are available in ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom White,’ ‘Green’ and ‘Pink Gold,’ as well as Samsung exclusive colours’ Gray,’ ‘Cream,’ ‘Violet’ and ‘Light Blue.’
The Galaxy S22 Ultra, on the other hand, comes in ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom White,’ ‘Green,’ ‘Burgundy,’ and Samsung exclusive colours’ Gray,’ ‘Light Blue,’ and ‘Red.’
While all three of these phones are flagships in their own right, the S22 Ultra is the star of the show with a different form factor than the other devices in the line.

Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is this year’s top-tier S series device. First off, the device looks like a fusion of the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and the S21 Ultra — a perfect combination of the two smartphones. The handset features up to 1TB of memory, up to 12GB of RAM and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor.
What’s most notable about the Galaxy S22 Ultra is it includes the fan-favourite S Pen. This new S Pen supports 2.8ms latency, which should make it feel very smooth. Additionally, the S Pen features a more advanced version of handwriting that can digitize your messy handwriting into easy-to-read notes, and it works with up to 88 languages.
Further, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra features a 6.8-inch display that offers a 1440 x 3080-pixel resolution and 120Hz variable refresh rate that can reduce to 1Hz when looking at static images. Additionally, it supports a 240Hz touch sample rate when gaming. A touch sample rate or touch-sensing refers to the frequency at which the smartphone tracks the movement of your finger. Typical devices have a 60Hz touch sample rate, which tracks the screen every 16.6ms, while, for example, the iPhone 13 series features a 120Hz touch sample rate that cuts the time by half.
The 240Hz reduces this to 4.15ms, which should make it seem like the handset reacts instantly to each touch.
Camera-wise, the S22 Ultra sports a 108-megapixel primary shooter with an f/1.8 aperture, a 10-megapixel telephoto shooter with 10x optical zoom with an f/4.9 aperture, another 10-megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom with an f/2.4 aperture, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide shooter with a 120-degree field-of-view, and lastly, a 40-megapixel selfie shooter with an f/2.2 aperture.
The S22 Ultra’s low-light videography and photography have improved thanks to pixels that are 1.23x bigger than the S21 Ultra’s, allowing the camera to capture more light, according to Samsung. The bigger pixels combined with the company’s multi-frame exposure technology should allow the S22 Ultra to capture bright high-resolution images even in low-light. Alongside this technology, the company’s AI reportedly processes 4x more data to sharpen details and reduce noise in low-light images.
There’s also a new auto-framing feature for videography that can detect people within five meters and track up to ten people for better group shots. When you tap a specific person’s face the video automatically shifts and adjusts to keep the subject in the centre.
Samsung says it has upgraded its ‘Portrait mode’ by improving its AI Stereo Depth Map and making depth photos pop in a more natural way. There’s also better studio lighting that should improve selfies, and portrait photos now work at night.
Additionally, Samsung has improved its manual photo-taking mode, allowing users to export 16-bit raw images. Finally, the handset sports a 5,000mAh battery and 45W wired charging and 15W wireless charging.
In a sense, Samsung’s Galaxy S22 and S22+ are in a different ballpark than the S22 Ultra. Both phones look similar to last year’s S21 and S21+ and lack the S22 Ultra’s S Pen stylus.
The S22 features a 6.1-inch FHD+ display, whereas the S22+ offers an S22+ FHD+ panel. Both devices sport a 120Hz refresh rate with a 240Hz touch sample rate when gaming.
Both phones only sport 8GB of RAM, up to 256GB of storage and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor. Additionally, the devices offer Android 12 and One UI 4.1, 5G, LTRE and Wi-Fi 6E for the Galaxy S22+ and the Wi-Fi 6 for the Galaxy S22.
Additionally, the handset sports a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera with an f/2.2 aperture and a 120-degree field of view. There’s also a 50-megapixel primary shooter with an f/1.8 aperture, a 10-megapixel telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom and f/2.4 aperture, and lastly, a 10-megapixel selfie camera with an f/2.2 aperture.
The S22 sports a 3,700mAh battery, 25W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. On the other hand, the S22+ features a 4,500mAh power cell with 45W wired charging like the S22 Ultra and 15W wireless charging.
All three of these smartphones will launch in Canada on February 25th and pre-orders open today.
Samsung’s new S22 series devices will be available at carriers and retailers, but if you purchase your phone directly from the South Korean tech giant, here’s what to expect.
The S22 and S22+ come in ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom White,’ ‘Green’ and ‘Pink Gold’ as well as Samsung exclusive colours ‘Gray,’ ‘Cream,’ ‘Violet’ and ‘Light Blue.’ The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra, on the other hand, comes in ‘Phantom Black,’ ‘Phantom White,’ ‘Green,’ ‘Burgundy,’ and Samsung exclusive colours ‘Gray,’ ‘Light Blue,’ and ‘Red.’
