Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy M22 technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy M22 suits anyone looking for a Super AMOLED display and a camera with optical image stabilization, but its performance is worse than that of most phones of its time. This entry-level phone puts more emphasis on its screen and camera than on its hardware.

Its 6.4-inch display uses Super AMOLED technology and has a 90 Hz refresh rate, typical for phones launched around the same time. The camera stands better than that of most phones of its time: the 48 MP camera has optical image stabilization, and an 8 MP ultrawide camera offers another perspective. The trade-off is the camera's f/2 aperture, which is worse than that of most phones of its time.

This version has 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage; the Galaxy M22 is also sold in configurations up to 6 GB / 128 GB. Performance is worse than that of most phones launched around the same time, so this is not the best fit for anyone prioritizing hardware. The 5000 mAh battery and 25 W charging are typical figures for its time. NFC, dual SIM and USB Type-C round out its connectivity.

With a NeoScore of 5.2, the Galaxy M22 makes more sense for someone who values a Super AMOLED display and optical image stabilization than for someone seeking standout performance.
