Post up here when your 22 arrives!!

I've got my burgundy S22 Ultra today. I've slapped a spigen Ultra hybrid case on it which I really love. It also gives a slight elevated rim around the camera modules, it's nice and slim whilst still offering protection and is overall a really nice, protective case.

I'm a fuss pot when it comes to charging, especially first time charging. Without turning the phone on, I'm very slow charging, (10W) until the phone reaches 100%. Then I'll leave it at that fully charged state for a little while. Then I'll unplug the charger, turn the phone on, plug the charger back on until it's fully charged again, (assuming it drops marginally after the unplugging), leave it in its fully charged state for a little while again and unplug again. And good to go!

And hopefully, I've given the battery a first time excellent conditioning.

And now I wait for a heap of comments, lol. But it's what I firmly believe in is the correct way to condition a brand new battery, reading about it on different battery sites over the years.

That's the case I have , but my phone is black. That burgundy looks nice. I hate I didn't go ahead and get it.

You do have an advantage in getting the black model. In case you ever want to put a really rugged case on it, you're not really losing much of the aesthetic. The black is nice too but put on a solid case back and you don't lose the appeal that any of the brighter colours offer. So pros and cons in both.

What a GORGEOUS phone and I love your case! Good call on a transparent plastic case to show off that beautiful colour! Even the box is pretty!

Looks good. Looks like the one with black trim?
 
Second one arrived yesterday, March 17 at 7:30 PM via UPS. And everyone complains about FedEx. My first one arrived via FedEx around 3PM and box was twice as large as the Samsung box, with ONE air bag inside. But the phone was not harmed. This one came from Amazon.
 
I received my 512Mb green Ultra yesterday afternoon via UPS. Since I have a UPS account, I could track the truck all day from when it left all the way to my house. I'm all setup now and good to go. I'm coming from my Note10+ (which I loved) - this is the same form factor which I also love and it is almost the same size. The thing I have to get used to is the buttons and S-pen are all on opposite sides that they are on the Note10+. Oh well. Just waiting on my wife's magenta (or whatever they are calling that color) Ultra. Says it could be here as early as 03/25 or as late as 04/22.
