Samsung Galaxy S22: Most hopeful

On paper, the Samsung Galaxy S22 was a fine release. It had the latest mobile processor in the Android realm, a great battery, and a gorgeous display—Samsung always delivers on video-ready smartphones. But something about its form factor seemed real—iPhoney? It could have been better at taking photos, too, and the cheapest variant didn’t even offer ultrawide band support. The pricing on the Galaxy S22 was a little high, too—$800 for the smartphone outright, compared to the camera system you get in a Pixel for less. Here’s to hoping Samsung took notes and that the Galaxy S23 makes us want to spend the money.
