Hello,

I’m currently using the S20 FE & I was thinking of jumping to the S22 because of the smaller size.

I never game on the phone & sparingly use the cameras.

My current usage is mainly social media apps, Netflix & YouTube with total screen time of around 5 hours.

S23 is out of the question as it is currently twice as expensive in my country.

Please leave your thoughts.

    Acting like a flagship being 2 years old is a bad thing in this day and age is pretty silly.

    I’m using an s10 plus, a 4 year old phone. The battery is fine, everything works fine. Now compare this experience to a phone 4 years older than the s10, the same cannot be said AT ALL. My s7 edge, even with literally everything removed and used as an ipod mp3 player device, is sluggish to do literally anything, even when im doing basic things like texting with airplane mode on.

    My s10 on the other hand, feels basically the same as the s22u I used for a short bit. Besides the vibration motor and faster refreshrate for the keys on the keyboard, it’s basically the same and that’s the same 3 year difference doing the same basic task in fluidness. And if you’re not doing dumb things online, security updates really aren’t a terrible thing to loose if you get it at tge right price.

      you are using a 4 years old phone that has run its course and is considered end of life at this point with zero security patches. Just because you do it, it doesn’t mean that you are a good example to set. The S22 will run out of support presumably 5 years post release, so you buy it new now and it only have 3 years left of support, like the shitty chinese spyphones. It better be in serious price-cut to make it valuable as a 3 year to keep phone.
