2022 has played host to a number of great smartphones, but it’s hard to argue that this was a year of exciting, innovative devices.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra was a refined Galaxy S21 Ultra, retaining a very similar camera system but only really adding an S Pen slot. Meanwhile, the Pixel 7 range was basically the Pixel 6 2022 Edition, offering a new processor and upgraded periscope camera but otherwise playing it quite safe. Finally, Samsung’s latest foldables show that the product category is more viable and mature than ever before, but you’d be hard-pressed to tell the difference between them and last year’s models.
