If Samsung launched S23 with exynos chip in Europe i think there will be a backlash.

Been using the S22+ for this past week and still love it for the most part.
iCloud photo album sharing is a real pain but it does work. I decided to send myself public links from my wife's iPhone. Just photos and videos of family and our dog so if someone wants to try and access them have at it! I was able to share / upload a photo from my S22+ which is nice.
Question: when I visit iCloud as a desktop link on my phone no shared albums appear on the page. Is this something I can fix or just how it'll be using the S22? I need to click on the links I sent myself to view them which is really annoying. I thought I saw somewhere you can add a shortcut to the home screen to point to the shared albums? If anyone does this please share.
Also if anyone is on Verizon, do you have really bad drop outs on calls when bordering 5G / LTE signals? My iPhone I felt handled this issue with perfection, I never had degraded call quality. The S22+ seems to try and hang onto the weak 5G signal. I've disabled 5G by using the Samsung Band Selection app, will see how this goes. My wife HATES the S22 because of this and is demanding I switch back to the iPhone. I'm resisting as best I can.
If anyone is still looking for good screen protectors, the AmFilm one from Amazon works flawlessly with the fingerprint scanner.
I'm on a Verizon unlocked phone ...only issues I've had was WiFi calling...once I turned it off my calls closer to around the house stop cutting off...I left 5G on and I'm usually around LTE ...that's the only hiccup I've noticed
I'm tempted to use import SD next year but be typical next year exynos will be better if I do that
I think Samsung will drop the Exynos next year. They almost did this year but last minute decision changed things.
Is it that bad? If @Dave245 doesn’t have problems with it, which he been waiting for the S22U since he took back his Note20U awaiting for preorders.
i don’t think Samsung is willing to give up on Exynos… if anything, they would love to ship all their phones using Exynos including in the US market.
Yeah maybe, I mean more exynos regions got SD this year than ever.
My performance and lag issues seems to have disappeared thanks to the new update yesterday. The only thing that should be the same I really care about is camera quality
It won't have the letter "Z" in it, there's my prediction.
I left a comment a few months back... informing Sakitech it's misleading to put Fold in the title descriptions for free wallpapers because it is presented with an error when Fold users click on the link.
So, the following video after that comment... he decided to remove it from the title description. But that was it; he went back to adding Fold in the title description, knowing that Fold users can not download free wallpaper.
I don't bother looking at those videos anymore.
Time with the S22+ may be short-lived. Phone calls using Android Auto go over Bluetooth compared to CarPlay which goes through the head unit. Call quality is night and day. Didn’t know this until I used AA often this past week and wondered why calls sounded really bad.
Are you hooked up wirelessly? I don't notice any difference between carplay or AA on my carTime with the S22+ may be short-lived.

Didn’t know this until I used AA often this past week and wondered why calls sounded really bad.
No I’m wired. I looked up the issue yesterday, despite a wired connection phone calls always go over BT. Media / music / navigation go through the head unit. It’s the way AA is configured by Google. CarPlay’s phone call transmission is not via BT when wired. Not sure if wireless CarPlay phone calls are via BT, I imagine they are?
Ah ok...I'm not familiar with wired ..I do have Wifi as well in my car ..never really paid attention everything seems the same to me ...
So phone calls go through CarPlay interface over the car's wifi system, and not Bluetooth, correct?
S22 Ultra SLOW and massive lag
Exynos device, highest resolution and framerate settings and it is really shamefully slow! My S20 Ultra is much nicer to use. Switching apps, waiting for anything to pop up, not to mention the games....unplayable!! The amount of dropped frames is crazy. Not to mention filming video or playing...

Many reports from youtubers as well.
It's probably some phones, not all.

I haven’t had any issues with my S22 Ultra as of this moment. I have been away on holiday for the past week. I did have a software update come through yesterday, i’m not sure what it fixes tho.
I will say that I’m an everyday user, i don't play games or do anything thats power hungry on my S22 Ultra. I use the S-Pen a lot and i do multitask, but no gaming.
Is this what the software update is for? i have to say I haven’t experienced this, so far.

He says the notification and UI lag is still there for him
I think it's a case some are having issues others aren't. Does seem the SD models aren't having such issues
The Ultra got between 9.5 to 9.8 stars from top tech magazines so no issues with the SD so far.
