We were once again privileged enough to get our hands on yet another pretty slick, recently launched Samsung Galaxy smartphone – The A22! The Samsung Galaxy A22 boasts a 6.4-inch large screen, quadruple camera and 5000 mAh large battery with 15W fast charging.
For the couple of weeks that we’ve been using the smartphone – we can safely say that for a mid-range device, this is a value pack! From a vibrant display to a pretty reasonable gaming chipset along with a battery to compliment them both.
With regards to its design, the quad-camera setup is slightly punched-up above the back panel although instead of an abrupt bump, edges are smooth around the camera bump which makes the design much more appealing.
The Samsung Galaxy A22 also comes with Android 11-based OneUI Core 3.1 update out-of-the-box – the core version of OneUI 3.1 optimized to run faster and smoother on mid-tier devices.
As mentioned above, The Galaxy A22 features a 5000 mAh battery which will easily last you a day without any trouble. We were also able to take the device to the next day with a few hours of usage across social networking platforms.
Lets dive into the exciting part – the camera! The Samsung Galaxy A22 features a quad-camera with the primary sensor being able to capture quality shots in daylight. The primary sensor doesn’t take time to focus on objects. It processes better skin tones. You can go for 2x, 4x, and up to 10x digital zoom with the primary sensor. Since the primary sensor has OIS, you can shoot stable videos at a max of 1080p@30fps without any issue.
Considering that the Samsung Galaxy A22 is priced at just R 3 999,00 in South Africa – The specs on the device along with the reputation of the brand makes this a very attractive buy!
