A phone for photography lovers 

Recently, we have noticed that Samsung has given more focus to mid-budget phones. On July 23, 2021, Samsung launched another phone named Galaxy A22 5G. This phone compromises some of the great features of its previous 4G version just to accommodate the 5G technology. This Samsung Galaxy A22 5G review will give a detailed heads up for the people who want to buy this phone.

Design and Display

The Samsung Galaxy A22 5G has a high-quality design that is more like the recent iPhones. Sides with angular finish with a backside adorned with a silky shimmer as well as a matte finish brings an elegant look to the phone. The dark grey, white, or light violet colour variations all look great. The smartphone is comfortable to hold.

The Galaxy A22 5G also uses a lesser quality IPS panel, with the highest brightness level of 418 cd/m2. It can be an issue, particularly in the bright surrounding.

Despite its low price, the Galaxy A22 5G has a Full HD display featuring 1080x2400px resolution, 20:9 aspect ratio, and 399ppi pixel density. This phone offers a 90Hz refresh rate. It produces a more fluid experience when scrolling and using the device.

Camera

It has a triple camera setup on the back, but only the primary camera and the wide-angle camera can be used to take photos. The third lens is only used to aid in portrait photography.

The rear camera setup has 48 megapixels (f/1.8), but only images with a quarter of that resolution are typically generated. This is because every four pixels are combined into one to increase light yield. Images were taken with 12 megapixels also look perfectly adequate for most cases. Users will be able to take full-resolution photos in a special mode if they wish.

The  8MP (f/2.0) lens in a mid-range phone is a step back. In bright light, the camera takes good self-portraits, though it isn't a departure from the norm. As a result, selfie-lovers will still be pleased with the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G. 

The images are detailed and well-presented. Portrait mode is also commendable. Due to factors such as stray hairs and excessive dust in the environment, a few soft edges may appear in some cases. With this frontless camera, users can capture 1080p video at 30 frames per second.

Performance

The Samsung Galaxy A22 5G is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 700 5G (7nm) SoC. A22 is equipped with an Octa-core processor composed of two Cortex-A76 cores with a maximum 2.2 GHz clock speed combined with six Cortex-A55 cores featuring 2.0 GHz clock speed. The graphic unit of this phone is provided with a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU.

Samsung Galaxy A22 5G has several variants 64/4GB, 128/4GB, 128/6GB, and 128/8GB. The RAM power ranges from 4 to 8 GB. Starting from 64GB, the internal storage capacity spans up to 128GB.

Battery and Charger

The Samsung Galaxy A22 5G has a large 5,000mAh battery that will last for a long time. Users will get day-long battery support with moderate use even if the battery capacity is reduced by half. Even a full day of intense gaming will not deplete the battery.

Price in Bangladesh

For the basic variant (4GB Ram and 64GB ROM), users have to pay £209.00 (BDT 24392.66; £1=BDT 116.49) to buy the phone. This latest Samsung phone is expected to be launched in Bangladesh soon.
