Before we go any further in our review, are you ready to see what makes the Galaxy S22 tick?

Don't blink; you might just miss the sleight of hand that Samsung pulls off with this premium phone.

Whether you're scouting for a new phone or eyeing its refurbished version from UR.co.uk, you'll find these specs hard to resist:

So you've peeked at the specs; now let's see how it performs in real-world experiences.

Anchoring the show is the Exynos 2200 chipset.

Paired with an octa-core processor, which features a dynamite Cortex-X2 core clocked at up to 2.8GHz, this device zips through tasks like lightning.

To put things in perspective, the increased RAM and faster processor on the Samsung Galaxy S22 arguably rivals that of other Android phones like the Google Pixel 7, which has a Tensor G2 Chip that struggles to run high-demanding games as efficiently.

One standout quality? The Galaxy S22's finesse in ramping down its performance.

It avoids those jarring, sudden drops that turn other phones into frustrating stutter-boxes.

Smoothing transitions, whether you're flipping through your gallery app, editing videos, or toggling between watching videos and making video calls.

One drawback of the Samsung Galaxy S22 could be perceived as the battery life.

Why? The Galaxy S22's 3,700 mAh battery might be less robust on paper compared to other Samsung Phones, like the Samsung Galaxy S21's 4,000 mAh.

But here's the thing: it's about efficiency, not just size.

Thanks to the Exynos 2200 chipset, this phone squeezes every last bit of power out of that battery.

So whether you're snapping rear camera pics or streaming the latest binge-worthy series, you'll find it's more marathoner than a sprinter.

And with every refurbished device brought by UR.co.uk, you can expect at least 80% battery health with your Android phone.

Let's talk camera—the soul of any smartphone worth its salt.

Samsung's Galaxy S22 isn't just another phone with a good camera; it's a pocket-sized photography studio.

• 10 MP front-facing camera: Just for your lovely face.

• Rear Cameras:

  
  

  50 MP wide sensor: For those breathtaking landscape shots.

  
  

  10 MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom: For capturing distant details.

  
  

  12 MP ultrawide sensor: For those group selfies where nobody gets left out.

The camera on this device shines in varied lighting conditions, offering vivid colours, precise white balance, and expansive dynamic range.

Think less fiddling with settings and more capturing moments as they're meant to be seen, whether it's the gleam of direct sunlight or the mood of an indoor soirée.

Beyond the impressive hardware, the Galaxy S22's camera suite offers features that tap into the magic of the moment. Let's get into the nitty-gritty.

The Night Portrait feature transforms dim settings into well-lit masterpieces.

Have you ever struggled to capture a memorable night out? Not an issue here.

The Night Portrait can be engaged on both the front and rear lenses, ensuring you look radiant even in the moonlight.

Then there's Portrait Mode—your fast track to social media envy. It lets you snap eye-catching photos, whether it's a selfie or a candid shot of a friend.

Post-capture, you can finesse these shots further with Blur or Backdrop effects, turning any moment into a work of art.

Mimicking its predecessors in the S series, the Galaxy S22 sports an Infinity-O display that seamlessly integrates a circular cut-out at the top centre for that selfie camera.

The design is symmetrical from front to back, whispering 'sleek' from any angle you dare to peek.

Even the details on the sides have been dialled down to simplicity, giving it an uninterrupted, streamlined flow.

As for colours, we offer the same as what Samsung sells.

Phantom White for those who adore a classic look; Phantom Black if you're into that mysterious vibe; Sky Blue for a dash of coolness; and Pink Gold when you're feeling just a tad fancy.

Each hue doesn't just add colour; it adds character.
