Price - 50k (exchange and bank offers available) 

I must say this is the best buy of 2023. 

• The Display is fabulous as always but what's more important I found is this phone gives me somewhere around 7hrs of SOT in regular usage without gaming which is amazing considering the SoC it uses and I use it at 120hz with AOD always on. 

• The Camera and the bunch of features that are loaded here is just scintillating. You'll actually forget considering the iPhone 13 or the 14/14 plus. The videos are super stable and that 8k 24fps cinematic frame is on another level if you know how to use it. 
I will extensively test the Astrophotography mode soon.

• The stereo speakers are good enough but I would still say Apple leads this speakers game. The audio output is way better than any android phone in this range though. 

• The processor heats while gaming but if you pay attention, the heating grows for the first 20mins ... but then it settles down and doesn't feel as a thing to worry about. I've been playing BGMI in HD & EXTREME Settings ( I don't use any case on my phone )

• Software Looks as refined as always and it has everything that a flagship actually needs.

It's good 15 min but got heat up in same way when we play bgmi or cod that's result what I got on day to day task it not heat like that also I buy it only two day back so it will take time to optimise I thought buying s23 before buying s22 plus but that phone was out of my budget and that small body size will heat up in same manner like s22 plus that's what I think what your thought about that ?

Agreed ... and s22+ is a bang for buck deal coming at 44-46k with offers or at 50k without offers.... but man 9r is no match to S22+
.. why I got this is cz I've used my TL's 9r and my colleagues iphone 13 .... while I absolutely didn't like the cameras on the One plus... Apple wasn't just enough convincing at a price of 60k .. The experience on One plus was just so so .. but the Apple impressed me a lot on the processing and videos .... But it won't give me the feel and customisation and features of ONE UI

Yes I do know the offline prices....

The S22+ in offline stores retails stores and even reliance and croma stores for 74k (128GB) & 80k (256GB) but this 256GB is rarely available.

The normal S22 retails for 49k in every offline store...

Though one **bleep** is when you tell or show the employees of the reliance digital people, that S22+ is available for 49k in Flipkart they'll instantly put a scheme for you with a discount of 10k and will ask you to pay the complete 64k in cash .. .. this is what 2 reliance digital stores near my location did...

So even I'm doubtful of the actual pricing that Samsung sells... cz the website shows 72k I guess....

I must say the stock phone comes with android 12 literally is **bleep**... but once you get it updated to 13... The phone stops heating over the regular tasks... it does heat but that's only while gaming or shooting 8k... The battery too has improved as for a the basic usage .. it gives 6hrs at max of SOT with AOD, 120hz, connected to wifi and Bluetooth connected....
