The Galaxy S22 Ultra is built with a 2.4um pixel sensor -- Samsung's largest pixel sensor ever, enabling its camera lenses to capture more light and data, optimising the lighting and detail of video clips.

At the rear, it offers a 12MP ultra-wide camera, a 108 MP wide camera, a 10MP telephoto camera (3x optical zoom) and a 10MP telephoto camera (10x optical zoom).

The 100X space zoom on the device includes 10x optical zoom and 10x digital zoom with AI super resolution technology.

S22 Ultra also supports 45W super-fast charging so you can record more than 50 minutes of video after a 10-minute charge, the company claimed.

Meanwhile, both Galaxy S22 and S22+ are built with a powerful 50MP main camera, a 10MP tele-lens and a 12MP ultra-wide lens. Both the devices have a 10MP front sensor for selfies.

The new Auto Framing feature can detect and track up to 10 people and automatically adjust the camera's focus.

Both devices are powered by advanced VDIS technology which minimises vibrations so you get smooth and sharp footage even when you're on the move.

The entire Galaxy S22 series will be supported by up to four generations of Android OS upgrades.

The Galaxy S22 series is secured by Samsung's powerful Knox Vault security platform, which includes a secure processor and memory that completely isolates sensitive data like your passwords, biometrics or Blockchain keys from the phone's main operating system.
