About Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

The Galaxy S22 Ultra marked the merger of Samsung's Note and S-Ultra lines, adopting the Note's squared-off design and, for the first time, a built-in S Pen slot on an S-series phone. It kept the 108MP main camera and dual telephoto zoom lenses (3x and 10x) from the S21 Ultra, paired with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 (or Exynos 2200) chipset and a 6.8-inch 120Hz LTPO display. It launched in Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green, and Burgundy, with Graphite, Sky Blue, and Red as Samsung.com exclusives.
