About the Samsung Galaxy M22

The Samsung Galaxy M22 is a budget phone built around two things people actually notice day to day: screen quality and battery life. Samsung gave it a 6.4-inch Super AMOLED panel with a 90Hz refresh rate at a point when most rivals at this level were still fitting flat, 60Hz LCDs, so blacks are genuinely black, colours pop and scrolling feels far slicker than the price bracket suggests. The resolution is only HD+ rather than Full HD, which is the obvious cost-saving and is visible if you look closely at small text, but the AMOLED contrast does a lot to disguise it. Battery life is the other strong suit, with a 5,000mAh cell and an efficient MediaTek Helio G80 that comfortably manages a full day and often more, backed by 25W charging that is quicker than most budget phones bother with. The 48MP main camera is fine in daylight and unremarkable after dark, and the extra macro and depth sensors add little. It is a 4G-only handset from 2021 whose update window has closed, so it suits light users rather than anyone chasing longevity.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Samsung Galaxy M22 worth buying?
It is a reasonable budget choice if you value a good screen and long battery life over camera quality or future-proofing. The 90Hz Super AMOLED display and 5,000mAh battery are its strengths, and the Helio G80 is fine for messaging, streaming and browsing. It is 4G only and no longer receives Android updates, so newer A-series models are the safer long-term pick.
Does the Samsung Galaxy M22 have 5G?
No. The Galaxy M22 is a 4G LTE handset, which is perfectly adequate for calls, streaming and browsing on every UK network. If you want 5G from Samsung at a similar level, look at the A-series 5G models instead.
How long does the Samsung Galaxy M22 battery last?
The 5,000mAh battery generally sees out a full day of mixed use and stretches towards two days if you are mostly messaging and browsing. The HD+ resolution actually helps here, since a lower-resolution panel draws less power, and 25W fast charging tops it up quicker than most budget phones manage.
Is the Samsung Galaxy M22 camera good?
It is acceptable rather than impressive. The 48MP main camera produces decent daylight shots and the 8MP ultrawide is useful for landscapes and group photos, but low-light performance is soft and the 2MP macro and depth sensors contribute very little. Video is capped at 1080p 30fps.
Does the Samsung Galaxy M22 have a headphone jack and memory card slot?
Yes to both. It keeps a 3.5mm headphone jack and takes a microSD card of up to 1TB alongside its 64GB or 128GB of internal storage. It also has NFC for contactless payments and charges over USB-C.
What is the difference between the Galaxy M22 and the Galaxy M32?
The M32 is the step up: the same 6.4-inch 90Hz Super AMOLED and Helio G80 chip, but at Full HD+ resolution instead of HD+, with a 64MP main camera rather than 48MP and a 20MP selfie camera rather than 13MP. The M22 is the lighter, simpler option if a sharper screen and better cameras are not priorities.
