This year, the entire Galaxy S22 series and Galaxy Tab S8 series sold in India are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset. We recently reviewed the Galaxy S22 Ultra and were left impressed by its general performance, cameras, battery life, display and its superior build quality. The S Pen stylus adds to the productivity factor. In fact, we feel that the S22 Ultra ends up proving itself superior to the iPhone 13 Pro Max, which was our previous benchmark in the luxurious flagship segment.
