Editor Rating
4.3/5

Samsung Galaxy S22 5G is the most affordable variant in the flagship tier Galaxy S series of smartphones sold by the popular Korean brand, which gets a complete redesign, along with all new internals. The body has been slimmed down and features a minimalist design. The rear panel is made from glass, and both sides are protected by the latest Corning Gorilla Glass Victus Plus. The camera module has also been trimmed down to three main sensors, which are placed in circular cutouts and hosted vertically on the top left. The camera module is also painted the same colour as the body to make it easier to blend in. On the front, you get a bezel-less display thanks to a small camera cutout for the selfie sensor.
