Can anyone help me understand how close the performance and battery life is between the three phones? I’m in the USA so the chip will be Qualcomm between the Samsung models.
My wife and I are trying to decide if we need the latest and greatest or if we should save some money. But, I wanted to know the trade offs.
Any perspectives on how they perform, the battery, the features, the longevity would be greatly appreciated!
The battery improvement with the S23 series is huge, you can pretty much cross off the other options, I do use the Pixel6 Pro.
S22 has pretty bad battery life compared to the S21. I’ve not tried the S23, maybe Google Fi will buy me an upgrade for Black Friday again this year.
Performance wise I have no issues with the S22.
The fact that you are asking if you need the latest and greatest mean you don’t. Every year is diminishing returns.
Pixel and Graphene OS are the only combo that exists any more IMO. You can take full ownership over yourself again. I’ve bought two in a row just for this combo after having every other Samy S Flag from 3-9. I’ll never go back or to the fruit. I am not a slave to my device’s bloatware and no one is stalking me recording everything I do and say 24/7 like when a phone has google services garbage baked in. I could run that stuff sandbox on Graphene if I wanted to but F that. I don’t need or want that trash.
I’d strongly advise against getting the Galaxy S22 as its battery life (both Exynos and Snapdragon) isn’t good.
