Samsung Galaxy S22: should you buy?

The Samsung Galaxy S22 discount does seem like a sweet deal but you'll have to consider the fact that the flagship is almost two years old. So you would be getting an older chipset, and a decent battery. But Samsung flagships are one of the best Android phones in the market so you would be getting a really good display, cameras and a decent phone overall.

It's still worth noting that even for the discounted price you can get newer phones in the market so unless you're a Samsung phone, you can consider other options.
