I have the S22U, and you'll only find it for $400ish if you can deal with the 128GB variant. Better to go up to the 512GB variant and pay a little more, plus you get the extra ram. Keep in mind that many of these flagship don't come with expandable storage anymore, so you're stuck with what you buy on the phone.

[@dr4k0nm47]

As someone who as previously owned an S22U I would recommend it to those who aren't too heavy on battery life. I would also recommend getting the Snapdragon varients of the phone if you can. Personally I loved the phone, except the battery life, it was its only flaw. On average I would get around 7H of screen on time.

[@someguy759]

Where can I buy a refurbished s22u with the snapdragon chip for around $500?

[@makelliagurley7287]

​@@someguy759 ebay and Amazon

[@chipsoftheweek]

Bro 7 hours of screen on time is really good I don't know what you're talking about

[@nafeeahnaf6296]

My Personal recommendation is the S21 Ultra, even cheaper than S22 Ultra and 95% the same phone and you can buy an extra S Pen case to have the S Pen too and that's what I did, love this phone so much costed me like 350 bucks

[@nirav6983]

Battery life is worse compare to s22 ultra

[@samuelhere41]

But Why not just get the s22 ultra WITH the included s pen?

[@choose2vibe]

I have S10+ and S23Ultra. Haven't really touched the Ultra since settling up my apps, email, etc. The S10+ is still solid.

[@ArthurDessy]

Please bless me with the S10+

[@katinasoutherland7693]

That’s weird imo I can’t imagine why you’d do that?

[@user-jgn1944]

But you know that I actually prefer the larger screen of the ultra models

[@shadowposh9088]

Thanks for the review as usual i am shocked about the s22u being so cheap coming from where it was

[@peterparker2068]

Price reflects the demand and the value people would get. The s22U has lower base storage, worse battery life, and the extra heat from chip. S22 U might get AI or it might not. The Note 20 Ultra is still popular which depending on the condition, still can range from $300-400.

[@nilskiemle9556]

I want s22 ultra however, I'm so skeptical about the SD 8th Gen 1. 8th gen 1 is just not efficient and also throttles a lot

[@yeshuasfragrantlife1262]

Try the s23 and s23plus. Better processor, and about the same price as the s22ultra.

[@richmondchinewube3290]

[@haderach3651]

Your videos are so great and helpful! Thank you! Will you cover Xiaomi phones ?

[@mfyoutubewatcher9352]

My only issue with the base S series after the S20 is the storage capacity. I feel like these phones should either keep an SD Card slot or allow us to purchase a 512GB or even 1TB. That's an instant purchase for me! Great vid as always!

[@SKLL3TR]

i got the 23 ultra for $800 and am very happy with my choice spending an extra $300 for the 24 ultra didn't make any sense to me, if you don't mind where can i find that wallpaper?

[@melanindread]

With a trade in you can s24 ultra for 600

[@SKLL3TR]

@@melanindread it doesn't exist here in my country, plus I got the s23U brand new and honestly after the recent updates it just made it unreasonable to get the s24U I have until android 17 of support and a very great device even to this day it's still a flagship

One question if you purchase an older android phone in which the life cycle for OS and Security updates has already ended will the phone automatically update to the latest OS and security update that was available for the phone?

[@SmittyAZ]

A refurbished phone should already have the latest available.

[@ChrisKadaver]

Are you reffering to prices on the used market in the US?

[@Olajuwon-v5q]

I love your reviews and haven't seen anyone present phones like this

[@Rr-j4x]

theyre 400 but theyre only 128gb which is unuseable nowadays since apps has gotten bigger. if anyone can buy 256gb buy it. i wouldnt recommend buying 128gb versions

[@spandsbab]

I still have the S22 Ultra (changing when my carrier contract ends around Black Friday). It heats up quick when playing games and the battery is just bad. It's beautiful though when rocking it without a case.

[@KKondo-ty5yz]

Which case is the best for this s22 u? Considering the screen?

[@OGBananaPanda]

I got the s22 ultra (the one linked in description), but it had issues with connection and I ended up having to get a new phone. It would barely get any cell service.

[@robi6713]

Is Iphone 15 pro worth it for my first Iphone choice? I want to hold the phone as long as I can, coming from an old and broken Oppo

[@BrianRamotar_1776]

Apple has 7 years of software support so it is a great choice if the price is right

[@peterparker2068]

s22 Ultra seems like a nice price but the drawbacks is the lower base storage, worse battery life, and the extra heat from chip.

I'm stuck on the s22 ultra and the oneplus 12r. The 12r seems better in every way besides camera which would make me choose the 12r. But I don't see myself needing a super powerful phone for a long time so if I go to trade in the 12r I feel as if I wouldn't be able to get a good upgrade like I could with the s22 ultra

[@richi6483]

I love your reviews 😊

[@chos3nzw407]

S22u 128 gig not worth it unless if you not a content creator I guess

[@jeffjeffjeff69]

not worth it at all whatever u are tbh, its just too small.

[@jiffonbuffo]

I don't know why 128gb phones are still getting bought. The users say 128gb/256gb is enough but then you see them baby sitting their usage. And will prolly change phones before future updates eat into the system.

[@marvelousmarvin956]

Awesome video of all the phone's. I'm looking for another phone because my Motorola Edge plus 2023 hit the cement and the screen cracked to where the phone is not usable. I liked the Unlocked Motorola edge plus 2023 because it had super fast 68 watt charging brick plus would charge the phone from 0-100 in like 30-40 minutes easy. I'm currently using my unlocked Samsung Galaxy a54 for right now until i can get something alot better with super fast charging again. Anyway excellent great video man!!!

[@katinasoutherland7693]

Get the 1+11 or 1+12 or 12r

[@DwightLawrence-mf4yj]

It's very nice to hear from you with the phones. However, it will be more better if could do some new phones as well too!!?

[@punkbutler88]

im conflicted. I want the Moto G Stylus 2024. But i also want the Oneplus 12R for not much more. I know the OnePlus gets the better updates, but i miss the chop flashlight i had in my Moto G5 Plus. Which i throw my sim in once in awhile. I loved that phone. lol

Hey Mathew. Why did Samsung make curved edges on there older phones? Also I’m thinking about getting one of the galaxy a14 phone. Can you tell me about that phone? And why did Samsung do random numbers with there a series

[@gustavof2241]

Edges meant more screen to body radio. And also, the A series numbers mean the following: A14 -> 4 = the generation of A series the phone was made. For example, past A series was A13, 33, 53 etc. Next Will be A15, A35, A55. First number means the placement in its generation. A54 is more expensive than A34, that is more expensive than A14.

[@BrianRamotar_1776]

Snapdragon out performs exynos anytime. No point in buying samsung flagships with exynos for the same price as their snapdragon phones. There are far better alternatives out there for consumers in countries receiving exynos on flagship devices

*reposting for visibility Thanks again! Please weigh in- Brand new A55 or pristine S22ULTRA for just under 150 USD more? (From a legit online store with a one year warranty).
