Samsung’s Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus launched, delivers revolutionary camera experiences

Last year's Galaxy S21 series, by most accounts, failed to meet Samsung's sales projections. The S21 and S21 Plus were surrounded by more Android competition than ever before, making it difficult for them to distinguish out on their own. Samsung gave the basic model a "cheap" initial impression by employing plastic materials on the rear instead of glass, which didn't help things.

With yesterday's announcement of the Galaxy S22 and S22 Plus, Samsung is attempting to correct some of those wrongs and re-establish them as premium, trustworthy, flagship-grade smartphones — even if they lack the Note DNA of the S22 Ultra. Unlike that smartphone, these are more similar to last year's phones with minor design tweaks. The displays on both versions are flat, measuring 6.1 inches on the S22 and 6.6 inches on the Plus, and both have a resolution of 2340x1080.
