Not to worry about the pin design mismatch. I had the experience of buying Samsung chargers from Samsung official website but receiving the "type" you received from flipkart as below. Samsung stores also have the same stock unlike the picture shown in Samsung online shop.

However, there are many fake ones available online/offline and is difficult to distinguish.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dr.Gonzo105:
I have the same one that you got. Bought that charger from Samsung smart cafe.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] NiruBhai:
Thanks @Virgo_Guy & @Dr.Gonzo105

Did anyone felt that the charger is too big 😳😳

Here is the comparison with a credit card size

Here is the comparison with s22 ultra itself
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Can't see clearly. Please put the cc on top and charger on bottom so we can judge against the numbers on the card. 😂
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
It is genuine i also got same from Samsung.com
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shubham540:
Finally got this combo yesterday (my birthday gift in advance), upgraded straight after Note 9

Ordered Spigen Neo Hybrid Case which will deliver by tomorrow, so suggest me a decent screen protector (I personally recommend

Ringke Dual Easy

but its currently out of stock as well as stock samsung one)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Super_Commando:
Can you compare & post main cam picture quality of ultra vs note 9 ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shubham540:
Sure I will do it, but after this month..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] imblfmstr:
Can I flash US model of S22 Ultra with India ROM and use the phone in India over 4G/5G eSim and Jio as a carrier ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Wi-Fi 6, no mobile data usage, Samsung int. browser + single SIM. These are definitely helping by a good margin.

I am also just guessing there's nothing much in sync in settings @ gallery, in apps , 1080p resolution, single email account etc..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Multiple email accounts in sync. Google One backup always on. WQHD resolution. Brightness on auto. Try harder next time 😊

Don't know why you feel the urge to subtly accuse someone of lying. That too about something as trivial as SOT on an internet forum. But you do you 👍
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
@NiruBhai

Bro I hope you realise my post about your charger was not in any way insulting or meant as an offence.

Looks like someone either reported or someone misunderstood my harmless post. Cheers. 🙏
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] NiruBhai:
Sorry to hear that bro.. Even I took it as a fair joke only
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Thanks bro for understanding. 🙏
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Not at all accusing of lying or anything at all.😊 ,hence I said I am "guessing". It's wonderful to see such batterylife despite of the battery consuming elements keeping ON. 👍
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
Finally after 5 emails and 20 days got myself registered on Samsung smart club and got 250 points for filling survey as well. Though 2000 points are pending for return duration to pass which already is passed. But relieved to see my account on smart club created
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] minuteman00:
1 TB version now available in india
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
In addition to a 256GB variant, I for one would prefer a credit card size 2TB external SSD insead for almost the same price difference.

Samsung can bring and start selling 1 TB version that most people do not need but unable to restock the necessary screeguard that almost everyone wants.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
Can someone try this for me and see is it also happening on your device ? Thank you.

https://xdaforums.com/t/instagram-v...-my-device-faulty-snapdragon-version.4423309/
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dr.ketan:
If Samsung consider to add 500 Gb additions SSD built (don't get formatted with device but needs to format separately of needed) in separate storage instead of 1TB device, may be more people will prefer it. This will be best replacement to ext SD card
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
This will never happen I guess. Atleast for Samsung the idea is to make it more and more "less development friendly" going forward and hence the removal of external memory space.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
Guys plz guide me,

I have purchased the S22 ultra with my friend's Corporate Email ID

my phone will be delivered in the next 2 days, plz guide me what is the next procedure to avail Smart Watch
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
I had a post here a few pages back. Same experience - corporate purchase for phone and individual purchase for watch. No extra steps to be done. Refer to the old post I mentioned and it should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Food for thought:

Across the board the S22U needs some serious updates. Shutter lag, grainy output, not so zippy UI, delay in applying wallpaper, slow fingerprint unlocking, etc. to name a few. The S21U simply feels faster in most of the areas in my usage.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
ok thanks, should i login my phone with my personal mail id and phone number Right?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
I have the same mobile for work and personal use. I logged in with my mobile and OTP, then verified the device and bought the watch.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
MIne is different, I have used My friend's corporate Email ID, and my regular address and mobile number. that's why I am confused
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Doesnt

Does not matter.

Upon receiving, use your own SIM & email id in Samsung shop app and wait for 72 hours and watch offer for 2999/- will appear.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
Ok thanks, now I am feeling better:D
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
Apparently the April update is nearly 1.4 GB in size with April security patches and camera updates. Let's see. iMHO, the camera is working great and the 3x.and 10x zoom images are an improvement. The portrait images at 1x are spectacular. Haven't tested 3x portrait and night time phones (1x and ultra wide)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
Did they already release april update?.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
Not in India ..they released it in South Korea and European countries. That's what I read in phonearena.com
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
Hey Friends - Wanted your advice. Planning to get S22 Ultra 256 gb today.

Few questions:

1. how is the battery life? lasts entire day? morning to night with light to medium usage?

2. since the 45w charger does not charge to max 45w, does it make any difference in charging speed? I have oneplus 8 pro and its 30w charger is pretty fast.

3. Is the phone too big to hold?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
1. Lower than the S21U, approx 1 and half hr of less SOT and approx 5 hrs of total runtime in exact settings across the board in my usage pattern.

2. It's a waste of money going for the 45W IMO. Stick to the 25W one since the 45W one isn't really making a difference.

3. Yes. But I like it more because of its comparatively better weight distribution and "boxy" design in comparison to the S21U.

I'm waiting for a miraculous update for a way better experience overall on the software side.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
Is call recording available?

How is the update cycle in India? Do we get timely updates as compared to other countries?

Also, with all the feedback of your usage, is it worth buying S22 Ultra?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
- Yes.

- Update cycle is better than the "rest". Ofcourse.

- That's subjective, it's for you to decide.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] zaydenQ:
SOT is 5-6 hours and almost the same as S21U for me. No need to buy the 45W charger, and yes it can be a bit big to hold if you're so not used to big phones. But you use thr OP8P should you should be fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] NiruBhai:
@sunny1119 @lycan_codex I am also facing the same issue..

Phone is getting switched off when it reaches around 4-5% 😢😢

@Virgo_Guy I have tried the option you have mentioned. But still the same issue exists..

Did you charge from 0 to 100 % while keeping the phone switched Off or On state?

Also 45W original charger is taking around 90 minutes to do a full charge 😒😒

If I try to charge after switching off the device, then its taking around 70 minutes only..

Anybody else facing the same issue here? 🙄🙄
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
It normalised for me. It comes to 1% and then switches off now. Don't worry, like @Virgo_Guy said, give it few proper cycles before it normalises. This did not happen with s21 before, it must be some AI related bug. What's your current room temperature? High brightness and ambient temperature might slow down the charging. I never used 45w charger before, so can't comment. But i think my 25w charger takes around 70 mins time to charge while it's powered on.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
I got my s22 ultra yesterday, I did the same process as u mentioned but today in MY Offer it showing me the "Device is not eligible for redemption", Plz Help
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Can take 72 hours for it to show.

The process worked for me. Corporate credentials were used only to get the benefits and placing the order but not for activating the device. The offer showed in 72 hours and I received it as well. There's no "tnc" wherein it's mentioned that the corporate credentials will have to be used for activating to get the watch offer AFAIK.

If it's still not working for whatever reason, get in touch with Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
ok thanks, I will try tomorrow, did u get this msg for first try "Device is not eligible for redemption"
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
No I didn't get that.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
i am getting this msg
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
On state. On or Off shouldn't matter.

I'll not be surprised if that issue re-occurs in mine too. Wait till some fixes are provided by Samsung(ofcourse without mentioning in the changelog) in upcoming updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] NiruBhai:
@sandy.parulekar

I was also facing the same issue.. Issue got resolved 7 days after receiving the device.. Try checking the offer every day. If its resolved after 7 days, write an email to customer care.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
Did u get offer after seven days?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
Bought s22 ultra yesterday 12+256.

Got 30k for oneplus 8 pro

Accidental insurance free from corporate email I'd.

Overall a good offer.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PrakashJoseph:
I am also facing the same issue

Even after 72 hours, saying not eligible for redemption...😑
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] NiruBhai:
Yes.. When I tried after 7th day I got the option to redeem the offer and I got the watch 4 for 2999 Rs.

Till that date I was getting the same message as "Device not eligible for the redemption".
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
Same here

"AVCJ" build is now rolling out at whopping 1.5 GB with April sec. patch. Ofcourse no changelog😅.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shalabhvickysom:
Yeah this most likely is due to "Find Device" where it keeps sending the location to Samsung when the battery is very low. I have had this issue in other devices as well that came with a 'Find Device' or equivalent feature
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shalabhvickysom:
I am having a similar experience.

When I charge it with 45W while it is off, it does get a bit warm but usually charges in about 65min from 0 to 100%

But when I charge it while ON, it doesn't heat up much but takes around 80 min to sometimes even 1hr 50min if ambient temps are high. I am not using the phone in this time, it's usually idling in this while.

The most baffling thing is, when I check the current inflow estimates from either Accubattery/BatteryGuru/Ampere it never maintains the current flow for more than a minute. Now I totally understand the concept of Power Delivery and PPS, but this doesn't feel normal. It will start charging at 5000mA and within a minute fall down to 1500mA and sometimes if the temps are high to even 600mA. No wonder it takes this much time. Battery temp all this while never crosses 41 degree Celsius

Comparing this to my Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra which is QC4+ certified (basically also PD), while charging with a 45W PD charger maintains a healthy current inflow of around 5500mA, while also maintaining battery temps at around 39-41 degrees. Takes overall 50-60min to charge from 0 to 100 it's 5000mAh cell.

April patch now available for India on frija
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
A huge 1.5 GB update is now seeing in India.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] praveen6585:
Might be placebo but the phone feels snappier after the latest update
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dr.Gonzo105:
I tried two uv tempered screen protectors. First one was a cheap one 400 one. Fingerprint didn't work with it. The other one was for 800. With this the fingerprint works, well enough but not as good as without tempered glass

Spen worked well with both the tempered glass

So at least I would stick with the uv tempered glass
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
With "AVCJ" build,

Camera app as well as OIS FW versions changed. Hope it translates into real life improvement.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
I had used spigen tempered glass on my s21 ultra, I was working with fingerprint but left some white circle mark of UV solution on screen and it's price is also high 2600 rs for single glass
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
Did anyone try to update their touchscreen firmware before? *#2663#
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PrakashJoseph:
Hi,

can you provide the link to the 800 rupees tempered glass you used?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Abhinav Jain:
Yes i also just received the April update. Now let us see whether it actually leads to any significant performance boost or not. Especially in terms of battery backup and camera performance.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] PrakashJoseph:
I feel vibration is slightly better in April update. What do you think?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Abhinav Jain:
I just received it. Will be able to comment after at least a days use.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
One thing i have noticed is how fast the FP scanner has become. I don't know if it's cause of the touchscreen update i did or the April security patch. But it is actually pretty amazing. Will wait for couple of days to check on the battery life. Haven't had a chance to go out and shoot landscape photography but will try this week.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
How did you see the versions of camera elements ? Is it an app or a phone code ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
I had the vibrations enabled for navigation gestures. I had it on the lowest setting. With the April build, the lowest setting feels lower than before, so, maybe they optimised this.

How to hard reset S908E. Tried by connecting phone to PC and then press Vol up + power keys, but not working. In S21 used to connect Type C headphone and then press Vol up + power keys.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
My camera versions looks different than yours even though we're both Snapdragon and both on April update. Is this normal ? How it is different ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dr.Gonzo105:
I bought it from a local shop
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
i think everybody's camera firmware is different
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Though Snapdragon, maybe based on model number(your unit is not SM-S908E/DS ?) Samsung provided different camera firmwares or used camera lenses from different OEMs(unlikely) and thus a different camera firmware! Have absolutely no idea.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
With Watch 4 44mm, anyone using 20mm steel band from Spigen/Fullmosa/Samsung?

The first metal link of the band that is connected to the lug is flexible or stiff?

The 20mm one from Fullmosa is stiff at that joint, that link stays downwards and needs to apply some force to push upwards. Not necessary for me to push it up but would like to know "how is it" from other two makers?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
That didn't used to be the case I think in previous models..

Yours is also different? 🤔
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
I'm also using SM-908E/DS. I'm on April patch. The only difference is i'm from Turkey, not India. Still so weird that all the versions are different, someone needs to explain :( My camera always takes the photos with too much contrast in my opinion, like trees/leaves etc are too dark most of the times and shadows get crushed. And now the versions are different which makes me think what if my camera is a defect ? Idk.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] akshay780:
anyone??
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kannanX10:
Devices manufactured from march 8th/9th(try *#12580*369#) does carry a different camera module AM instead of SM from initial batches and to my surprise AM ones does have better edge sharpness and overall better image quality.....might be a better lens component

@Virgo_Guy is sony XF-1000XM4 good?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
RF Cal from March middle in mine. So certain compoenents were calibrated later than the first batches..

This info is for real? Got some comparisons? If this is the case then it's a bad news for the early adopters.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
The world of reviewers said it's really good. Except that ear canals(discomfort) don't like it much AFAIK that reviewers "forgot" to mention🙁. I personally haven't tested it buddy.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kannanX10:
yes.......my first one made in February had speaker issue and to get that replaced i checked around 7 devices from February month ,all had(SM module )severe camera distortion around edges whereas 2 devices made in march with AM camera module had no issues in regards to edge distortion/blurring

all Demo units are having SM versions and you can easily spot the edge distortions in them
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
This April update seems to be performing nicely. Phone feels much smoother, haven't seen the phone heat up so far. Fingerprint sensor seems to be doing a bit better and lastly battery life seems to have improved, getting 5.5hrs screen on time with 40% still in battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
Let's not worry much about small things folks. Most of these changes are not even visible to naked eyes until you do pixel peeping.

Let's not blow it out of proportion. All reviewers had phone that were built in Jan and Feb and no one complained of Edge distortion or any negative feedback on camera modules (not even hard core apple fan reviewers).

I am early adopter as well and have no complaints about the camera. So chillax, don't loose your sleep over small things 😁
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
Thank you, this made me happy
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
Could you please share an image and highlight the stated distortion? Also a comparison with AM module would help.

I havnt experienced any such distortion and mine is from Feb. Neither did I find any reddit thread about this where more users have complained anything like this.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
@twisted_mind @anil84 do you folks see anything on your devices?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
Apparently I have the “old” device, but i'm not having any sharp or soft corner issues or distortions. My only complain was pics being too contrasty, like trees/leaves looking kinda black but it's a characteristic of this phone's camera and not a problem I guess (hopefully).
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
Samsung phones do have more contrasty and saturated photo to make them look insta ready.. My Note 9 from 3-4 years back used to take punchy photos too.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
Mine is contrasty but not saturated, I make the saturation higher by myself most of the time. I also upgraded from Note 9 and it was taking more saturated pics. Is it the same for you ?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
As I said, don't loose your sleep over small things. Even exynos vs snapdragon doesn't take exactly same photos. Something saturated for me might look under saturated for you.. Other contrasty thing for me might look black to you.. Beauty lies in the eyes of beholder :p

All I can say is I am pretty happy with the way photos look and come out from my device including edge detection and subject separation. Rest it's a very personal preference and will vary from person to person.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] wholelottared:
True
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kannanX10:
nothing alarming and to be bothered about....all manufacturers will have multiple suppliers for the same component,there will be minor variations.......if you still want comparison pics,will provide later

I'm influenced by watching erica griffin's reviews over the years for display uniformity and camera things...i may be having OCD regarding these......Chill and relax guys,nothing to worry

Does anyone who has a jio sim confirm whether they are able to make calls without wifi? I have this really weird problem when i am not on wifi calling and i call someone...the screen shows HD for a second and that icon disappears ..and all i hear is static sound...i am completely audible on the other end but I can't hear them as i just hear loud static sound. There is nothing wrong with my sim as i just used it on pixel 5a and i could call without issues.

VoLTE is enabled and shows up but i am just not able to call anyone without wifi. I can recieve calls and hear them okay..just can't call anyone.

I hope it's something to do with my software and a reset might fix it..settings look fine though.

No such issue for me. Able to make calls with and without wifi while wifi calling is turned on for my jio sim.

Hdr10 plus video playback is dull and not bright as it in s21 and s20 series phones.

I compared it with my s20 plus with s22 ultra. google it, one reddit user also spoke about it..

I have even installed April 2022 update. The problem is not solved yet.

This is a major bug and it irritates me while playing hdr10 videos and movies.

I have tried extra brightness on, reset and tried all possible troubleshooting methods. Now i can say its a s22 ultra bug.

Anyone else facing this issue?
