r/S22Ultra

Hey guys I am really considering to buy an old s22 ultra. My budget is not much to buy something new and I also have never used these flagship phones. Please suggest me if it is worth buying or I should just buy a new phone in this price range .

Just posting my appreciation to this device. For context I have this since December 2022 and I'm still using my device today. I remember before I am too protective about my screen for scratches yet today I am rocking my screen naked. Currently, I have transitioned to IOS now with my Iphone 17 Pro, but I just keep coming back to my S22 Ultra when I need to do some android stuffs.

Almost 4 years later, battery has gone shit, but its not a problem because I use this as a back up phone now. What I love about this is it feels almost exactly as the day I bought it. The screen is such a beauty to look at especially if used without screen protectors. It doesn't scratch easily and honestly I dont mind having some scratches considering it is a 4 year old phone but oh boy, even though I am using it carelessly, it doesnt really scratch easily.

What a beast. This is the phone that I can say I got my money's worth.

I need some opinion, I have the A56 but my sister recently upgraded her S22 Ultra to a new phone and asked me if I want her old phone. The S22 Ultra is working as normal and the only thing it needs is a battery replacement as we tried to do the battery life diagnostic and it came back as 'weak'. So I'm wondering if its worth to switch to the S22 Ultra considering it is an older phone? Not sure how many updates it has left.

I have had my S22 Ultra for more than 3 years; it was good, but now battery issues have started showing, and I barely get 3-4 hours of screen-on time.

AccuBattery is showing 74% battery health.

Should I change my battery or upgrade to the S26 Ultra?

If I change the battery now, how much longer can I use it?

Went through injured gadgets for an aftermarket screen. Basically got it back to new and looked at the trade in value. Was offered $1,004. Debating on if the fold 8 ultra is worthy of my s22ultra.

Hi everyone! I'm hoping that someone out there has done what I'm trying to do...

A year ago, my S22 Ultra had a bad update and turned itself into a brick. It was only a couple weeks before I was deploying, so I had to get something junky to tide me over.

Anyhow, now I'm back and trying to turn it back into a useable phone. Here's the situation:

After the bad update, the system booted once into a blue screen, and then went into a constant cycle of booting into a black screen that wouldn't end until the battery died.

Once the battery is dead, it can be plugged in and then on the first boot I can get into the recovery menu, but from there I can't make any progress in restoring it.

I'm pretty sure I need to reinstall the operating system from scratch, but I don't even know where to begin!

Any help would be amazing!
