The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra price in Kenya and Full Specifications
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is currently accessible in Kenya. As predicted, the Korean company has combined its highly high-end features, drawing influence from the Galaxy Note's profile as well as its usage, notably with the inclusion of an S Pen housing.
For this, I'll start by addressing an essential point: the S22 ultra is a condensed version of the S21 ultra and, for example, a smartphone like the Galaxy Note 20. Despite its similarities to the previous ultra, the S22 ultra is somewhat broader, and more picked up throughout the length than its predecessor. The existence of a Corning Gorilla Glass Victus + on the front and rear is another distinguishing feature.
If we focus on the Camera area again, we'll observe that the modules aren't exactly flat and protrude somewhat from the phone's rear. You should be aware that the S22 ultra will benefit from the following setups?
- Main sensor: 108 Megapixels, Dual Pixel Autofocus, F/1.8, 85°;
- Ultra-wide angle sensor: 12 megapixels, F/2.2, 120°; 12 megapixels, F/2.2, 120°
- telephoto lens: F/2.4, 36° optical X3 with a 10-megapixel sensor;
- front-facing sensor: F/2.2, 80°, 40 megapixel
What are some of our favorite features of the S22 ultra?
The inclusion of the S Pen is, of obviously, the most noticeable new feature. This time, the stylus can benefit from a warm spot within the smartphone. Samsung has also improved the sampling speed of its screen, enabling the stylus to respond in 2.8 milliseconds instead of the previous nine milliseconds.

Samsung Galaxy S22 series, where to pre-order the new flagship in Kenya
Because the S22 ultra is equipped, at least in Europe, with an Exynos 2200, a 4 nm SoC, we should anticipate Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 in Kenya. The first and most evident benefit of going from 5 to 4 nm is a projected increase in battery life. Samsung's home interface, One UI 4, is pre-installed on the Android 12 operating system. Theoretically, it should also reduce energy usage at the margin.
