The rear camera of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 256 GB is equipped with 4 lenses, with each lens having a different role in taking pictures. Most common lens you'll see on smartphones is a wide-angle lens, telephoto lens or macro lens. A wide-angle lens is mainly used to capture landscapes and other spatially larger compositions where a wide field of view is needed. A telephoto lens is designed for photographing subjects at a distance and often has an optical zoom. A macro lens is ideal for close-ups and small objects. The main lens is designed as Wide-angle lens. The resolution of the main lens is 108 Megapixel. Higher resolution does not necessarily mean super high quality photos. Furthermore, it depends on the pixel size but also on other important factors. Pixel size is 0.8 μm. Average value is typically around 0.8 μm to 1.8 μm on better mobile phones, and again, the higher the number, the higher the photo quality.
The size of the camera's sensor also influences the final quality of the photos. Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 256 GB´s main lens is designed with a sensor size of 1/1.33". The higher the value after the slash, the higher the resulting photo quality. The aperture of main lens reaches F/1.8 value. The best phones have a lens with an aperture of up to F/1.5, where more light can pass through sensor and photos will be of a high quality even in low light conditions. However, lenses with apertures around F/1.8 to F/2.2 are the most common. The lower the number after the slash, the better the photo quality. An undeniable advantage is the optical image stabilisation, which makes image significantly more stable without any loss in quality. Cheaper phone models are equipped with electronic stabilisation, which has a negative effect on the resulting image quality.
Second camera
The second lens of rear camera is designed as Ultra wide-angle lens. The field of view of second lens reaches 120 degree(s). The resolution reaches size of 12 Megapixel. Pixel size in this case is 1.4 μm. Furthermore, the second lens is equipped with aperture of F/2.2.
Third camera
The third lens is designed as Telephoto lens. The field of view reaches 11 degree(s). The resolution of third lens is then 10 Megapixel. The pixel size that significantly affects quality of photo is 1.12 μm. Last but not least, third lens is equipped with a lens aperture of F/4.9.
Fourth camera
Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 256 GB also has a fourth lens, which is designed as Telephoto lens. Fourth lenses are usually fitted to the highest quality cameras. The resolution of fourth lens is 10 Megapixel. The pixel size is 1.12 μm. Lens aperture value then reaches F/2.4.
Front camera
The front camera of phone Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 256 GB has one lens. This number of lenses is standard on most smartphones nowadays. The resolution of front lens reaches 40 Megapixels. Again, it should be noted that resolution is only one of several other significant factors that affect resulting quality of a photo. The pixel size itself is 0.7 μm. The main lens is also equipped with aperture of F/2.2. The field of view of front camera is 80 degree(s).

The battery size of Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 256 GB is 5000 mAh. Nevertheless, battery capacity is not the only factor that affects the phone's battery life. For example - the size of the display, the performance of the processor, the use of data functions and, of course, the intensity of use of phone in general all have a significant impact on battery life. Standard for most smartphones today is a battery capacity of around 4500 to 5000 mAH. Phones with this battery size usually guarantee a phone life of at least 1 day. Older or cheaper smartphone models can then reach battery capacities typically around 2500 mAH and below. With this capacity, you may find that if you use your phone heavily, you may need to recharge your phone during the day. Talk time, or we can say battery life when making calls, then indicates amount of time your phone will last from a full charge if you are constantly on a call. Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra 256 GB is provided with a talk time about 2280 minutes. Many users will also welcome the wireless charging feature. Wireless charging keeps your phone from overheating and also protects the connector from wear and tear. On the other hand, it does cause some power loss. You'll also enjoy the fast charging function, which allows for faster power flow and thus up to several times faster charging of the phone.
