Praise-
Size Pen Camera Being square

Absolutely no praise-
Battery...its garbage. Had it for a week and I barely get a day out of it. Turned off almost all notifications and have it run optimized. 5am 100%...8pm 30%. Not a lot of screen time.

Pros
Incredibly smooth.
I like that it seems a bit wider than the Note Series.
Addictive to use - like the old BlackBerries.
Fast charging is great.
Great cameras. I especially like the Zoom features!
Not experienced any stutter others have experienced.
Incredible sharp screen!
Nice clear speakers.
Battery life for me is WAY BETTER THAN my Fold 3 and Note 20 ultra.
Esim works better than physical sim on Tmobile network. Feels like my home wifi all the time.
Spen!

Cons
Too slippery without a case. Fell off my nightstand all bt itself! Twice. It just slides!
Too expensive.

I only got it today so I've had around 12 hours with it. I guess my first impresions are:

Pros:
+ Really nice design, solid hardware, looks and feels great.
+ Software is really snappy, smooth, pressing the wifi icon in the notification shade actually turns on/off the wifi, rather than bringing up other menus...
+ Oustanding screen. Comparing the screen to my Pixel 6 Pro is night and day, the S22U screen is miles ahead. And like 30% brightness on the S22U is equal to the max brightness on the P6P.
+ Fingerprint scanner is excellent. Instantaneous and extremely accruate. Again, come from P6P, this is so relieving.
+ So far reception has been rock solid and I haven't run into any bugs yet.
+ Camera looks to be really quite solid again.

Cons:
- Vibration motor doesn't feel as good as P6P. Just doesn't feel as strong. I have vibration on for typing and it's just not as nice, feels weaker for typing and when I get calls.
- Battery *might* be a bit dubious. Only day 1, but I feel it drains a little faster than I'd like. Not as quick as the P6P so far, but from memory the S21U had better battery life? Will have to wait a few days/week for the battery to calibrate and get proper readings though.

Yes! I love these threads! Keep your opinions coming!

only negs: battery and signal on ATT. I actually think the vibration is better than before but it is weaker.
