lol I’m a lefty so for me, the feeling is yay! Finally a default that favors my people! 😆
Camera’s versatile and I’m fine with my results. Videos (not on social media playback) are nice. I’m glad I got this phone. I’m probably more happy with it than with the Pixel 6 Pro and I’m also quite happy with the Pixel 6 Pro, though. But for me it’s the S Pen that makes it the top choice. Apple and Google don’t offer anything comparable and I’m just really appreciating being able to jot down notes like the dinosaur I am!
As long as this phone continues to do this excellent job, I’m going to plan to keep it more than a year. I would have kept the S21 Ultra, if not for that lens crack or whatever it was. I’ve been babying the S22 Ultra in hopes of keeping it pristine.
Google cameras though…still the best overall. But I am a fan of a good 10X zoom. The one thing I haven’t really got to test yet is how it does on a country drive. I tested the Pixel last fall, but still haven’t had enough free time to do that sort of testing with the S22 Ultra.

At least they put the power and volume button on the right which is more convenient and easier to shoot screenshots. On my Note10+ its on the left.
I did very well sticking with my Note10+ for 5 years as i promised so we'll see how it goes with the S22u.
Next Note iteration will have no hole punch.
So you will be tempted by the all screen.
The hole punch doesn't bother me at all usability wise but it does bother me because many apps can access camera so you feel like being watched 24/7. This app is excellent camera blocker.

Do you guys use the the supertelephoto 10× & ultrawide features under the pro section of the camera?
Me neither
Dunno about yours but if I’ve not used the phone for several hours I do get lag when opening the Home Screen and Notification Center has some stutter. This might be launched related though
I’ve had no issues with lag so far. The only thing I did notice was battery life dipped, but I checked and Google services was running in the background. I quit all of that, my battery is now back to normal and giving me a full day.
My issues are nova related I think. My battery life also better since using home one UI
You mean your main sim or ditching the ultra? Pixel is a great phone for point and shoot it’s great but for me ultra is superior on most areas.
Ah no ditching Ultra love this phone ..I've had my SIM in the Ultra and this week was the Pixel turn to swap
but I'm keeping it as is for the week ..
Still in the Pixel here. I want to put the sim back in the Ultra so bad but I just can't do it 😂
I sure hope with the next Ultra Samsung and Google can work out a deal where the Ultra gets the Google Call Screening. It really is a game changer. Cameras are about the same between all the flagships. I'd still probably keep my Ultra if it came down to having to choose only one device, but I like my toys so I'll keep both.

we all want that combo ...Can anyone recommend a good Samsung-compatible charger stand that also has a watch charger? I'm currently using a Samsung one, but the watch charging pad is tiny and requires precise alignment (it's not magnetic), and as I use it on my bedside table I often knock the watch out of alignment when I sleep.
I’d wager it’s more folks with 2 SIM cards… the iPhone being the main SIM card while secondary being in the Android phone.
