Just purchased S22 Ultra

Welcome back to the world of Samsung!

Congrats! Can't go wrong with the S22U. I've been really happy with it so far. Everything works and works well.

Screen & cameras are amazing.

Agreed! You gotta do what works for you. I personally am very careful with my devices, so minimal to no protection works for me.

My mother-in-law insited on a heavy duty case the last time she got a phone, and I watched her drop it within days on hard tile. So she needs the heavy duty protection and she knows it.

So if you know what you need/want, just trust that. If you ask 10 people here what you need you will get 10 different answers; But none of them know you and your specific needs.

I've been on these forums for some time and have learned if you asked 10 people one question, you will probably get 15 different answers from them.

I had a weird issue....I suddenly realized my ear piece volume had gone low....I normally keep it at 50 to 60% coz is very loud ....
I was shocked suddenly what happened...
Brand new phone just few days old and ear piece volume has gone down...speaker gone bad soo soon....I felt bad that I had to take brand new phone to service centre....
Then suddenly I realised my screen guard had moved up and was covering the ear piece....
I laughed and was happy nothing wrong with the phone...
Soo I peeled off the screen guard.... and installed matt finish guard... that looks good and no finger prints on the device....View attachment 343812

So glad nothing was wrong with your phone! Good for you for troubleshooting!

I got one the 1st week they became available, it broke my Android Auto in my car, I returned the phone 2 days later. Has the app been fixed yet?
Currently still using my s20 Ultra thank God I hadn't rushed to send it in for my credit.

I'm coming back to Samsung, after a dissappointing experience with the Pixel 6 Pro. It was an aggravating experience.

As of now, with my S22 Ultra, I'm content again.

That's so wonderful! Glad you are enjoying your S22 Ultra! What colour did you get?

 

[scribe4food]

The black. I've had every Note, since the Note 2. This feels comfortable.

Neither my S22 Ultra or my S22+ will work with my Android auto.

That was a deal breaker for me. Automobiles are being sold with Apple play and Android Auto and this is a big deal, I blame Samsung and Google for not testing properly before Samsung released the s22 phones.

I worked for IBM for 32 years over the last half was spent in the software division, if there were known bugs in our code at the ship date point we would be working hard on making fixes available ASAP.

Can the Android Auto system in a car be updated? Does it update when you connect with your device? Just curious.

You can take your car to the dealership for firmware updates on the head unit.

Didn't got too well for me. Recieved S22U yesterday, returned it today. The screen glitched, I took a video which is attached.

Did you do a warranty exchange or you just returned it?

That sounds unnecessarily inconvenient. Perhaps those who have issues with it in this thread should do that in order to get their phones working with their cars.

Being it behaved like this out of the box I returned it. Ordered an unlocked one this time, and it should be arriving Sunday. I went for Phantom White like yours this time.

Android Auto worked flawlessly for me on day one with my S22U. There were people that had problems connecting their S22's with Pioneer Android Auto head unit systems that they installed on their vehicles (they weren't native to their vehicles).

And using an s22?

My old s20 ultra works flawlessly, I would settle for less so I returned the s22 ultra.

I'm driving a 2021 Mazda CX30, not sure who makes the unit.
