The Samsung Galaxy S22 has since been overshadowed by its successor, the Samsung Galaxy S23, but it’s still a very capable smartphone with either Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip or Samsung’s Exynos 2200 processor. It will breeze through everything that you throw at it, including multitasking between apps or playing demanding mobile games.

You’ll certainly love the screen of the Samsung Galaxy S22 — a 6.1-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display that’s bright and colorful. However, if you want it slightly bigger, you can go for the Samsung Galaxy S22+ and its 6.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display screen. Otherwise, the two models are similar, according to our Samsung Galaxy S22 versus Samsung Galaxy S22+ comparison, including their 8GB of RAM, IP68 resistance against water, and a triple-camera setup at the back with 50MP wide, 12MP ultrawide, and 10MP telephoto lenses.

The Samsung Galaxy S22 ships with Android 13 under Samsung’s OneUI 5, and with three more years of operating system updates, you can be sure that the smartphone will be getting access to new Android features in the future.

Android will now warn you if someone is using AI to fake your contact’s voice on a call
Google's fake call detection is the first time a phone platform has built a real-time cryptographic defense against AI voice cloning scams.
Android fake call detection featured.

Yes, advancements in AI help people from different walks of life, but they have some cons. One of the most exploited con has been AI voice cloning. Over the years, it has reached the point where most people can no longer tell a deepfake voice from a real one. 

Scammers already know this, and they’ve been spoofing users’ contacts, cloning their voice, and committing financial frauds for quite some time. Android's new fake call detection is designed to stop that exact scenario before it costs you.

The Vivo X300 Ultra is making all camera phones look bad, and here’s why
Vivo X300 Ultra isn't the camera you need, but deserve
Vivo X300 Ultra

For years, smartphone brands have promised “DSLR-like” photography. Most improved image processing, added bigger sensors, or stacked more cameras onto the back. But the Vivo X300 Ultra takes a very different approach - it does not just want to mimic a camera, it wants to behave like one.

From external telephoto lenses and physical camera controls to filter support and tripod mounting, Vivo’s latest Ultra flagship feels closer to a modular photography system than a traditional smartphone.
