The Samsung Galaxy A22 5G Price in Nigeria is 294,000 Naira and this includes Lagos, Abuja, Kano, Rivers, Ogun, Oyo, Delta, Kaduna, Edo, Enugu, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Benin, Owerri, Warri.
As one of Samsung’s most affordable 5G smartphones, the Galaxy A22 5G aims to bring high-speed connectivity to more wallet-friendly prices. After spending some time testing out this entry-level device, here are my thoughts on whether it delivers.
Design and Display
Made of plastic, the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G has a basic yet functional design. At 167 x 76 x 9mm and 203g, it’s quite lightweight despite its 6.6-inch screen size. The display is an LCD panel with Full HD+ resolution and a fast 90Hz refresh rate for smooth scrolling. Colors aren’t as vibrant as AMOLED but overall visibility is good.
Performance and Specs
Powering the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G is the decent mid-range MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset. For basic tasks like messaging, browsing, and video streaming it performs well enough. However, more demanding games may stutter at times. Memory options include 4GB or 6/8GB RAM depending on the storage variant.
The triple rear camera setup is led by a 48MP main sensor. Photos taken in good lighting have decent detail, though low-light performance is average. Selfies from the 8MP front camera also look fine.
Battery Life and Connectivity
One key strength is the massive 5,000mAh battery which easily lasts over a day between charges even with heavy use. The 15W charging is acceptable but not very quick. Connectivity includes all major 5G bands for wide compatibility. Dual SIM support and a 3.5mm headphone jack are also present.
Software and Other Features
Running Android 11 with One UI Core 5.0, the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G software experience is clean and clutter-free. Updates are promised for two OS upgrades which is disappointing. Rounding out the package are Bluetooth 5.0, dual-band Wi-Fi, GPS, and an FM radio.
Conclusion
Priced around £125/$150, the Galaxy A22 5G delivers dependable performance and strong battery life at an affordable cost of entry to 5G. Those on a strict budget looking for next-gen connectivity will find it a capable option, despite compromises in areas like display quality and update support compared to pricier rivals. For the money it aims to provide, the A22 5G succeeds reasonably well.
