Samsung Galaxy S24 vs S22: The biggest upgrades
This Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22 battle will help us understand what — exactly— has changed over the past two generations with this Android flagship line.
At first glance, it's not very obvious. Aside from diving head first into Galaxy AI, there aren't any glaring, conspicuous hardware changes with the brand-spankin' new Galaxy S24 line. But with this deep-dive comparative analysis, we can get a better understanding of the Galaxy S series' upgrades over the past two years.
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Price
Samsung Galaxy S22, when it first launched, had a starting price of $800 and comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Now, you can purchase it on Samsung for just $699, as of this writing.
Samsung Galaxy S24 also launched with a starting price of $800 with the same RAM and storage.

Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Design
The 6.2-inch Galaxy S24 is slightlylarger than the 6.1-inch S22. And unlike the S22, the S24 no longer has its triple-lens rear setup lumped together inside a rectangular camera module.

Both phones have that flat-edge, boxy design that don't feel as nice in the hands as the Ultra's rounded edges. They also share an attractive hole-punch display that leaves plenty of room for screen real estate.
The S24 comes in the following colors: Onyx Black, Marble Grey, Cobalt Violet, and Amber Yellow. The S22, on the other hand, comes in Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green, Pink Gold and Bora Purple.
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Display
As mentioned, the S22 delivers a slightly larger display, but other than that, both the S22 and S24 share the same Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with a variable refresh rate of 120Hz.
The S22 has an FHD+ display, which matches the S24, too.
However, what's different about the S24 is that it has a wider range for its refresh rate: 1Hz to 120Hz vs. 48Hz to 120Hz. Why is this a big deal? Well, with the former, the screen can drop to 1Hz when you're not doing much, making it easier for the S24 to conserve battery life.
If you want a larger display, consider upgrading to the Plus and Ultra models, which upgrade you to at least to a 6.6-inch screen, depending on the generation. Plus, you get better resolution at QHD+ or higher.
Samsung Galaxy S24 display: 6.2-inch screen, FHD+, 120Hz variable refresh rate
Samsung Galaxy S22 display: 6.1-inch screen, FHD+, 120Hz variable refresh rate
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Performance
The Galaxy S24, outfitted with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, should deliver faster, zippier performance compared to the S22's Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 processor.
Samsung Galaxy S24 chip: Snapdragon 8 Gen 3
Samsung Galaxy S22 chip: Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Camera
The Samsung Galaxy S24 comes with a 50MP wide camera, a 12MP ultrawide sensor, and a 10MP telephoto lens. There's also a 12MP front-facing selfie camera.

Plus, with Galaxy AI, the S24's camera software features should allow for more sophisticated editing experiences that the S22 may not be able to match, including the following:
Edit Suggestion - The AI recommends minor tweaks for each photo
Generative Edit- Fill in parts of an image background with AI
Instant Slow-mo - Generates frames based on movements to show action-packed moments with a smooth slowed-down effect
Keep in mind that you will not have these options with the Galaxy S22.
Samsung Galaxy S24 camera: 50MP wide, 12MP ultrawide, 10MP telephoto, 12MP selfie
Samsung Galaxy S22 camera: 50MP wide, 12MP ultrawide, 10MP telephoto, 10MP selfie
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Galaxy AI
One aspect about the Galaxy S24 that the S22 cannot top is Galaxy AI, which relies on on-device processing and cloud servers to deliver AI-assisted features to users, including the following:
Live Translate:Real-time on-screen language translation for phone calls and texts
Chat Assist:Helps you find the right tone for messages, whether you're communicating with a co-worker or trying to connect with your social media audience
Interpreter:Similar to Live Translate, but taking place in-person instead of phone calls
Note Assist:AI-generated summaries and formatting of your notes
Circle to Search:Draw a circle around anything on your display and Google will run a search for it
And these barely scratch the surface of what Galaxy AI has to offer.
Samsung Galaxy S24 vs. S22: Battery
The S22 has a battery capacity of 3,700 mAh, but the S24 has a little more under its hood with a battery capacity of 4,000.
On paper, this means that the S24 should outpace the S22 on a single charge, especially since Qualcomm claims that the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset delivers 20% improved power efficiency generation-over-generation. However, we'll have to test this to be sure.
Samsung Galaxy S24 battery: 4,000 mAh
Samsung Galaxy S22 camera: 3,700 mAh
Final thoughts
Yes, the upgrades between the S22 and S24 are iterative. But on paper, the new-generation S24 should offer better battery life, sharper selfies, a slightly larger screen, and a more sophisticated overall experience, thanks to Galaxy AI.
