Dunno about return policies of Samsung. But with cashify, as long as your old phone does not have any defects and if you are certain the Cashify guy is lowballing, you should simply hold your ground and insist on the price quoted by Samsung during the deferred process.

A little bit of humility and firm but politeness also goes a long way. If you come across as stubborn or rude, the Cashify guy always has a walk away option. Just offer him a cold drink, be nice (imagine he's your future about-to-be father in law). Once you break his emotional defence, he will call his senior on the phone and offer you the price you should get.

All this comes at the cost of time. If spending an hour at your doorstep doing all this is not feasible then yeah one is better off letting him go and selling the phone to a local shop. The Cashify guys "cash-in" on this exact mentality of ours. "You want convinience of home pickup and instant bank transfer? Be ready to be surprised by our curveballs" 😂
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagarb:
same and they say always use original Samsung products.Also is that separate cable they sale will it support fast charging 2.0 or not? if not only way is buy 45w charger and cable lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagarb:
just saw the samsung separate type c to c cable don't know will it support fast charging 2.0 or not can any one confirm who purchase c to c cable of Samsung it says 3A but I think we need 5A for fast charging 2.0 right?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dr.Gonzo105:
Which charger are you using?

And yeah I think we do need the 5A one for fast charging 2.0
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] adie95:
Yup, it's so sad that they wouldn't even include a compatible cable in the box. How is this saving the environment?

The 45W charger bundle (T4510) comes with a 5A cable. But that is not being sold in India yet! 🤷
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Current 45Wcharger EP-TA845XBNGIN which is available in India also has same cable

What Samsung is sending with S22U is lower variant
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Buy the previous one that came out during S20U or (Note 10U launch in late 2019). The slightly bigger one. It comes with a cable that works perfectly. Any decent Samsung cafe should have stocks of it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Abhinav Jain:
Has anyone who has booked S22 Ultra through Amazon received any update. Mine is showing preparing for dispatch since last 3 days.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagarb:
im using mcdodo gan 65w pd charger with Baseus type c cable both works perfectly for speed charging 2.0.

I mainly went 65W because in future they will introduce 65watt than again current 45w will be waste so went this way

https://www.amazon.in/Charger-Portable-Adapter-Compatible-MacBook/dp/B08JVHX3ZK/ref=sr_1_7?crid=18ARDOQI4DNTK&keywords=65w+pd+charger&qid=1647233547&s=computers&sprefix=65w+pd+charger%2Ccomputers%2C304&sr=1-7
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagarb:
i think their is no other way except buying 45w charger with cable if you need speed charging 2.0 officially. we wont get 5A type c cable original separately.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
@twisted_mind He directly became senior citizen at 65 instead of leaving 25 wala boyish charm at 45

That's called transformation
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
@twisted_mind we have made it bhai...to the top
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Not ridiculing your choice but do you feel comfortable using such aftermarket no name brands for something as critical as charging?

I'm a bit old school. I always stick to the official stuff and in fact don't even use the 45w chargers daily. That's only if I need a quick topup in a pinch. Otherwise I use an Anker USB station from a few years ago for nightly charges which does max 2.4A per port.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sagarb:
bought only because i used their product previously (100watt pd charger ) without any issue it was reliable and charges as stated till date for me. that's why preferred this.

that's correct official is always reliable compare to this. May be I will buy one more from Samsung once they release their new 45 watt charger in India.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dr.ketan:
Congrats! 3rd in All time high is also on name of Indian ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
I got the 25W normal charger from Samsung, should be delivered this week. Don't really care much about the difference in time on using the 45W over the 25W one... And thought a slower one may help keep the phone slightly cooler too.

Have been using the 15W one which came with the M32/31 for my phone since past few days and the 18w port on the Mi Powerbank too. And this charge time is fine for me so pulled the plug.

I do come from a oneplus and their Dash charge thing but over 2 years of using it, I rarely had a situation that I needed so much charge in so little time... 🤷🏻‍♂️
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
You absolutely did the right thing bro. The difference is barely negligible between the 25w and 45w. And 25 should definitely keep the battery in better health especially if one is planning to use it every night for more than a year. Unless ofcourse if you hang around here, FOMO will eventually convince you to upgrade yearly. Look at @anil84 😂😂 he bought one and didn't even want it.

I plan to toss the 25 in my office bag just incase I need it at work. Retained both the 2x25 chargers and cables thanks to Cashify generosity 😇😇
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
So for this found a solution: There's an app called AOD Notify. Right now I'm using the free version to test it out.

It turns on AOD for 30 seconds when I get a notification and shows me the notification content. Also shows some sort of LED lighting on the screen. Testing it out and seems to work well.

I may use some GPlay credit and get the pro for it, its only 100 bucks anyways. Just waiting to check the impact on baterry life for a day or so...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Yeah I saw this on reddit when you asked last night. There's one more called Glimpse which is also equally popular for your use case.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] zaydenQ:
Been using this since it was introduced few years back. Works like a charm.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] amit_sen:
Just had my old phone picked up by Cashify guys. No hassle , no chikchik. Smooth transaction. He even changed the model variant as my phone Oneplus7T was 256gb variant, but somehow the original link showed only 128gb variant. Got 22.4K approx intotal (after 1.5k extra for 256gb) . Cool deal as i bought it for 36K on launch day.

One question, when is the watch offer for me going to be visible. I bought phone from corporate website. I have used the phone with sim in slot1 for > 72hrs now. It shows 'device is not activated with sim card'. Is there anything specific needs to be done. I have checked with access with mobile data as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
Hahaha Same for me Preparing for dispatch since 5 days. If i buy today it is showing delivery in 3 days. They messed up with pre orders. My color is Burgandy
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] bajk10:
Ordered today through Samsung and expected delivery is March 16th. Does it mean it wont be delivered in 3 days?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Abhinav Jain:
Amazon is indulging in out right cheating. They are prioritising fresh orders for delivery and keeping pre-orders in limbo. I just had a huge shouting match with Amazon Customer Service but nothing got through their thick skin. Just said that they cannot do anything about it. I am thinking of writing a scathing mail to them. Can anyone share some senior officer email id in Amazon India. I don't want to write to Jef Bezzos that will be like shooting bazooka to kill an insect.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
Same with me. Calling CC daily and they say your expected delivery date is 20th so they cant don anything
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
Samsung will deliver. We r talking about Amazon
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
For how much u bought?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] bajk10:
I paid 53k for 12GB/512GB including 56K exchange
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nitinmits:
Which phone exchange?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] bajk10:
S21 Ultra 12/126GB
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Samsung sold you an S22 Ustraa. Most people have bought the other variant called Ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] bajk10:
corrected.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cool.darshak:
Just picked my watch from store today, manufactured on 21 Feb 2022. Not old stock at all
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Almost like garma garam jalebi from halwaai
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
21st ko banaya. Phir 22nd ko hum sab ko banaya. Wah 👍
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kun8l88:
Did anyone notice the Corporate prices have dropped down by 6k /7k? I think the galaxy Buds offer is rescinded causing the difference in prices.

Samsung S22U 512GB - 109,739

Samsung S22 256 GB - 70,679

When are you uploading pics of yours and wife's phones? 🤔🤨
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Does S22U have feature of clicking photos without opening the box? Mann ki aankho se?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cool.darshak:
My store guy did such big goof up when i went to pick up my S22U, he was giving phone to multiple customer like me and was doing data transfer and other formalities. By mistake he transfered someone's data into my phone and my data into someone else's phone. I bought that phone back at home only to realize it is wrong phone when i started getting call asking for some other name. Again went back to store, person whose phone got exchange was also there in store only luckily. Formatted data again and swapped the phone.

In this choas, i had tiny profit. That person had bought screen protector but store guy applied that in my phone.. hahah
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
After many days of appointment getting rescheduled by Cashify, finally today the pickup agent came and all in all a very nice experience. Got exactly same amount as mentioned by Samsung no chikchik no jhikjhik.

Though one of the guy did have huge nail as someone mentioned in this thread and I made sure no one tries to insert those nasty nails anywhere in the phone. Other than that it was a very smooth transaction, they checked screen, scratches, camera, fingerprint scanner etc and they said sir you'll get full value of the phone as given by Samsung in the estimate.

Also today I received my watch 4 with mfd as Feb 2022

P.S. - I selected UPI as payment method for Cashify, but somehow it got failed for me. Pickup agent took the phone and he said you'll receive an email where you'll have to fill the account details again. I did receive an email and filled it again, hoping for the money to hit my account soon 🤞
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Yes it will. Experienced it myself and filled that form. Got the money later, no worries there.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:

happy ending with screen protector
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dr.Gonzo105:
From 50% to full charge with fast charging 2.0 - 45w charger it takes 38 mins.

Your phones is getting charged really quick with the charger you use 😅
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
@twisted_mind keh do ki yeh sach hai!

I wish I too post this soon : no chikchik no jhikjhik

@amit_sen
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
@ragavbpl I have opted for Amazon Pay as that gives 4% extra

Now question is will Cashify let me enjoy the full value? To know this, keep visiting this thread on XDA
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
This has restored my faith in humidity. 🙏
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
I kept cash as I wanted to pay my credit card bill against phone purchase and amazon pay doesn't allow to use the amount against bill payment..
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
After filling the form, how many days did it take to receive the money?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sunny1119:
Same story for me of cashify, the guys came yesterday to pick up my device, they inspected the device, touch sensors etc and asked if i had all accessories and insaid yes, I was quoted 32.7k for my s20+ which they agreed to pay in full, i also convinced them to let me keep my charger of s20+ as i dont have another one and they agreed. I had selected upi for payment and it failed. They asked me to fill up the form with payment details and gave me the option to keep the phone till i receive my payment, they will collect it later on. Good experience overall!

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Something tells me that's not going to end well. Let's see if they actually honor the price when they come back a 2nd time. Daal Kaali toh masoor ki bhi hoti hai. But just don't get a good feeling with someone being so generous in this day and age.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Same day for me. So about 5 hours after the error initially...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ragavbpl:
Ok my phone was picked around 2.30 pm.. Will see if I receive the amount today or not

how much Samsung gonna make
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
You first post pics of the two ultras.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] cool.darshak:
By the way official screen protector sucks, such a big fingerprint magnet and phone's battery backup is really disappointing, today have switched to 60Hz only just to see what happens. Tried Galaxy HZ, works sometimes and sometimes just force closes. Also it goes as low as 10Hz (which ideally is great for battery) but it happens when u dont want it to go 10Hz and makes phone unusable and laggy
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Even the clear stand cover is finger magnet
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] crazyguns:
Got phone from store, S22U 12/256, data transferred using USB cable took about 20min, so far it's awesome (and heavy :O)

They said the watch is completely out of stock and new ones coming in next week apparently, seems like the offer is pretty hot, also gonna be an influx of new watches on the 2nd market lol
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
How much was your bill?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] adie95:
Is it out of the "Learning usage" stage? Till then the battery life is not the best.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] adie95:
Confirming here once more that the EP-TA845 charger + cable can charge with Super fast charging (2.0)?

@twisted_mind
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] crazyguns:
30 for s20fe5g so final 80, have to pay another 500 for watch + 2500 club points
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
No no I meant weight
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
That's the one from 2 years ago na? If yes then absolutely yes.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
Got the phone and smart Tag, still waiting for the Watch to ship. Its still in confirmed stage.

Anybody else who brought the phone on feb 22nd, got their watch shipped. Its just taking forever.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] adie95:
I bought on 22nd feb and have received everything by Mar 10th. (Phone on 8th March, Watch on 10th)

Yup, the only one available in India. Thanks for confirming! I will wait for a month to see if they launch the new one, else will buy this one.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
Mine still says confirmed and delivery by April 2nd. This is Bat**** crazy planning by samsung. Considering i got my phone, there are people in this forum who are waiting for their phone to be shipped.

So not sure if i should feel lucky to have got the phone early or unlucky that watch is still not shipped.:p
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] adie95:
It's being manufactured as you type. They will ship, no point contacting them either. Samsung Shop is the best patience life coach available in India!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
If size is an issue maybe it's worth waiting for some time. This one is a thicc boy. So eats space of the adjacent plug. As it is, as per various media outlets there seems to be barely a difference between the 25 and 45w overall time to 100%
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dr.Gonzo105:
Not much difference between the old one and new one.

Is Samsung’s new 45W charger worth it? We set out to discover the truth

Samsung has released a new 45W wall charger earlier this year, known by the model number EP-T4510. Although none of ...

Today it is not in learning usage, will check with adaptive and 60hz both also have add few apps in sleeping and deep sleeping mode.. lets see
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Can someone remind me about the Smart Tags? Was that an offer on pre-order? How does that need to be claimed?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dr.ketan:
That was pre reserve offer not pre book, means if you reserved your S22 even before pre booking started
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Ah ok, then I wouldn't be eligible.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
I haven't got the smart tag either.

@amit_sen : Did you manage to get the Watch offer? I am also facing the same issue.

@kun8l88 : Yes.. The offer is there from March 11th after the Pre Book offer.. You can even get HDFC bank discount as well
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Weird question but are there any must get apps from he Samsung store? I'm assuming that some of their exclusive apps are only updated/available via that (Like Expert Raw).

Also, any way to get more wallpaper services for the lock screen? I'm curious to see what's out there...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] zaydenQ:
Shoot Samsung an email about this, they will fix this. Last year during S21 Ultra redemption they fixed it for me after emailing them. @amit_sen
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] amit_sen:
I called cc today, they said they will revert in 1-2days max. Issue is escalated to backend yeam they said. Let's see.

Do you have the email-id. I will use it, if not solved by Wednesday.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] crazyguns:
Bought in store not online, they had the second shipment of S22u stock delivered today went n got it from them! I know everything's online these days but such a massive cost thing I don't trust some courier especially after reading all the posts here lol

Also just a note after using it for a while, its a HEAVYYY phone, like seriously way heavier than I thought, and I was expecting a hefty boi, gonna take time to get used to it I guess...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] zaydenQ:
No special email. The normal email should suffice. If it has been escalated it will be sorted, I guess.

Did you login with a Samsung account that doesn't have your order linked phone number associated with the account? Or did you use 2 sims together?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] amit_sen:
For order placing Corporate e-mail id of my wife with my phone no. linked. I logged in with my phone no. in Samsung app. Phone no. is same in both.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
HDFC offer is exclusive right and you cannot club it with exchange bonus.

I ordered with a phone exchange and did not get HDFC instant cashback. Currently email conversation with Samsung hasn't yeiled me any help. They keep stressing that you can't get both offers. (Unfortunately they did not mention on the website on 22nd, but changed it on 23rd)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Bank offer or Upgrade Bonus, only one works and that's since ages

One can either exchange or avail bank cashback!!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
I had faced redemption issued during S20U bought from Flipkart, patience will pay off, they will surely resolve but may take little longer than your expectation

CC: @zaydenQ
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
I know, but samsung did not put that on website on Feb 22, they mentioned it only for S22+ and S22 on website. But on Feb 23rd 12AM they changed it to show S22 Ultra page as well. Also on check out page the website would remove the exchange bonus if you select EMI option but when you paid in full it showed elidgible for 5000rs instant cashback on HDFC card.

I should have taken the screenshot for better argument with Samsung.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Instant cashback would have reflected as discount immediately

It does show banner of HDFC offer but once you have added exchange to order, on input of HDFC card number it won't do anything
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] shirdesh:
Yes, i got scammed by the wordings. They mentioned instant cashback so I assumed after payment i will get it in credit card account did not realise it was a instant discount, this way i would have had the chance to verify before proceeding with the offer.

Also when i tried EMI option the pricing would change , it removed the exchange bonus and also did not provide the 5000 reduction in final amount for HDFC offer. So i assumed it was cashback+ exchange bonus or 0% EMI.

I used HDFC business regalia card. Not sure if card is not included in the offer.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
IKR even I almost fell for it. Instant cb is misleading if not disingenuous. Although in their defence the TnC clearly mentions it. But for some folks who did upgrade bonus and were expecting instant CB to work as well they will be disappointed. It's not a scam in the truest sense but just needlessly convoluted.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
HSBC cards are among first to introduce these wordings for their offerings, at least to my knowledge, still this term is deceiving as cashback is perceived as something which will come later

Amazon, Flipkart always shied away from this terminology

There has always been banner which shows OR sign between exchange offer & bank offer

Even I was initially confused for my EMI txn whether cashback applied or not but there wasn't any issue
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
@cool.darshak Ringke Fusion cover is sturdy from sides but I doubt whether it's front has depth to protect the screen

Even it's back is not that strong to withstand drops though it's camera module looks pretty

Front edges are prone to touching here & there as against their marketed 1.5 mm depth

Camera lens are decently covered

Now I am counting & waiting for UAG @twisted_mind
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Follow up post:

Got the charger today. My setup is using the stock cable that came in the box plus this charger, nothing else.

It shows Super Fast Charging (not 2.0) as expected. Also shows about 15 minutes from 90% to 100%. So seems like a good buy at this price.

Next I plan to setup overnight charging routines so I wake up to a fully charged battery daily. Will keep updating my journey here.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] anil84:
Just went to nearby shop to get screen protector applied

https://www.amazon.in/CaseCandy%C2%AE-Samsung-S22-Ultra-Fingerprint/dp/B09TFX7TMR/

I bought it for 1190 & shopkeeper told me he has same for 200 !!!! :confused::confused:

Plus I paid him 100 for applying

After application device has a break line in the middle after applying which he says may go in 2-3 days once device is heated & as per him it does come as these screen protectors are applied from middle to top & bottom

PS : GW4 from this order of from normal portal dated 10th March is shipped today
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] kkapoorr:
Same, the GW4 I got in the offer was shipped today too.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] adie95:
Screen protectors are such a scam.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] twisted_mind:
Are we born with a screen protector/scratch guard pre-applied? No. Then why do you need one for a phone? 🤦
