Editorial report

Samsung W22 5G technical sheet

The Samsung W22 5G suits buyers who want a high-end phone with generous memory, a fluid display, and broad connectivity. At 271 g and 14.4 mm thick, it has a significant trade-off for anyone prioritizing a light, slim device.

Its 6.2″ Super AMOLED display runs at 120 Hz, a higher refresh rate than that of most phones of its time. The 75% screen-to-body ratio, however, is lower than that of most. The configuration shown pairs 16 GB of RAM, among the highest capacities in phones of its time, with 256 GB of storage, more than most. Storage is not expandable.

The triple rear camera setup includes a 12 MP main camera with optical image stabilization and a 13 MP ultrawide camera. The 12 MP resolution is lower than that of most phones of its time. The 4400 mAh battery has less capacity than most, while its 15 W wireless charging power is among the highest of its time; reverse wireless charging is also available. This model has no Google Services, a significant limitation for anyone who relies on them. Connectivity is among the best of its time, with 5G, NFC, and eSIM. With an overall NeoScore of 7.1, it makes most sense for buyers prioritizing memory, connectivity, and camera features over a lightweight design or built-in Google Services.
