Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Display Review
Samsung just upped the ante for display quality with the Galaxy S22 Ultra. As before, you get a dynamic 120Hz refresh rate, which made for smooth scrolling during our hands-on time. And there's a 240Hz touch sampling rate that gamers should appreciate.
But there are two notable display upgrades here. The first is that the screen has a peak brightness of 1,750 nits, which could be the brightest we've ever seen. (The standard brightness level is 1,250 nits, which is still quite high.)
The other display perk is a new Vision Booster feature, which can adjust the screen's brightness on the fly throughout the day. This means that you should have no problems using the S22 Ultra outdoors even in very strong sunlight.
I took the Galaxy S22 Ultra to Bryant Park with the iPhone 13 Pro Max and Google Pixel 6 Pro, and the Galaxy S22 Ultra's display was noticeably brighter than the two competing phones when I fired up the trailer for Reacher.
When watching a trailer for Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, this Galaxy S22 Ultra's panel delivered rich colors and wide viewing angles, along with smooth motion during action scenes.
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Display test resuls
| Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra | iPhone 13 Pro Max | Google Pixel 6 Pro | |
| Max brightness | 1,359 nits | 1,038 nits | 842 nits |
| sRGB color gamut | 137.5% | 109.3% | 104.2% |
| DCI-P3 color gamut | 97.4% | 77.4% | 73.8 |
| Delta-E color accuracy (lower is better) | 0.25 | 0.21 | 0.3 |
The Galaxy S22 Ultra's panel also impressed in our lab tests, as it reached a very high max brightness of 1,359 nits, compared to 1,038 nits for the iPhone 13 Pro Max and 842 nits for the Google Pixel 6 Pro.
In addition, the Galaxy S22 Ultra beat the competition on color reproduction, as it notched scores of 137.5% and 97.4% on the sRGB and DCI-P3 tests, compared to 109.3%/77.4% and 104.2%/73.8% for the iPhone 13 Pro Max and Pixel 6 Pro, respectively.
The only are where the S22 Ultra fell behind the iPhone was color accuracy, as it turned in a Delta-E score of 0.25 (where 0 is perfect). The iPhone 13 Pro Max hit 0.21.
One potential issue with the S22 Ultra's display has been noted by several users (though not us) who got their devices early. These units produce strange static-like bands across the display, but the issue is limited to Exynos-powered devices and Samsung promises a fix.
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Design Review
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is simple but stunning at the same time. I appreciate the sharp, squared-off angles, and I also like that the cameras aren't housed in a honking bump. They are more flush with the back of the handset. The overall look is minimalist and sleek.
Another plus: The 6.8-inch display is gently curved, so it adds some aesthetic appeal without leading to accidental screen presses. My only complaint is that sometimes typing words or moving the cursor on the extreme left or right side of the screen can be a challenge. Despite having a slightly larger display than the 6.7-inch iPhone 13 Pro Max, the S22 Ultra is lighter at 8.07 ounces vs. 8.5 ounces for Apple's handset.
The Galaxy S22 Ultra feels solid and durable, and it should, as it's fortified with an armor aluminum frame and a Gorilla Glass Victus+ back. We'll have to see how well this phone holds up in drop tests, though.
The color options for the Galaxy S22 Ultra include Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green and Burgundy. I tend not to use a case, so I would probably opt for the very eye-popping white model.
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra S Pen Review
The Galaxy S22 Ultra has the smoothest S Pen I've ever experienced, and that's because Samsung has dialed down the latency from 9 milliseconds to just 2.8 ms. So you're getting a 70% improvement here.
The best part is that you don't have to use a dumb case to store the S Pen as you had to with the Galaxy S21 Ultra. There's an S Pen holder built right in to the phone.
In addition, the Galaxy S22 Ultra uses AI to predict your hand movements and deliver that pen-and-paper feel. When taking notes the writing not only feels smooth, there's a neat sound that makes it sound like you're writing on paper.
I compared the S22 Ultra and S21 Ultra, and there is a noticeable difference in responsiveness when writing on the display. For example, when jotting down "This is the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra," I felt like the words were appearing in real time on the S22 Ultra as I scribbled, while it felt like the S21 Ultra was a half step behind and was trying to keep up with the S Pen.
Samsung has made a few other notable S Pen improvements, including more accurate handwriting-to-text conversions, as well as the ability to quickly save your notes in Microsoft Office docs and email
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra Battery and charging Review
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is powered by a large 5,000 mAH battery, which Samsung says will last over a day in typical usage. We've run the Tom's Guide battery test a few times, which involves continuous web surfing over 5G at 150 nits of screen brightness.
The best battery life result for the S22 Ultra thus far is 10 hours and 18 minutes over T-Mobile's network with the 60Hz mode turned on. That's good and well ahead of the 7:55 from the Google Pixel 6 Pro, but this runtime is behind the 11 hours and 25 minutes we saw from the S21 Ultra and the iPhone 13 Pro Max lasted an even longer 12:16.
With adaptive mode turned on for the display (which scales up to 120Hz), the S22 Ultra lasted 8:50, which is lower than we expected. We'll report back with further results.
When it's time to juice back up, the Galaxy S22 Ultra offers 45W charging, which is an upgrade over the 25W charging in the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Samsung promises you'll get to 50% in 20 minutes, which would be about 10 minutes faster than the S21 Ultra.
We tested a 45W charger, and it juiced our Galaxy S22 Ultra to 36% in 15 minutes and 67% in 30 minutes. That's faster than a 25W charger with the same phone (29%/58%), but it's not a dramatic difference.
