Well today's the day. No doubt there will be quite a few 'this is the s22 ultra' videos dropping from the likes of MKB, Mr whosetheboss, Mr Mobile, supersaf, unbox therapy and others, all of whom have had it in the hand for a while but were embargoed...
- Mr Whosetheboss
- MKB
- SuperSaf (This is the entire S22 line)

The players:
Cortana by Microsoft on a Nokia Lumia 925 (T-Mobile branded) running Windows Phone 8.1 GDR 1 Preview for Developers
Google Now by Google on a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 running Android 4.4.2 w/ Touchwiz
The camera: I used the wife's Galaxy Note 2 to film this. Sorry about any lack in quality, I'm not practiced with the device and it doesn't seem to autofocus as well/quickly as my Lumia 925.
The same twenty questions were asked of each Virtual Assistant in turn and the results were scored (by me). The questions were what I felt was a good mix and the sorts of common uses people would ask of their device. For the constraints of this video everything was done on a desktop and there was no actual field use for navigating and geofencing; although those abilities do come up in the demo - I just wasn't driving around town while I filmed. Both devices had been "primed" before hand by filling in the interests and settings.
Here's my BLOG feed if anyone prefers to read a bit more about the history of the two assistants before viewing the video: My Alter Ego
The video itself is about 45 minutes. Hey, that was 20 questions each (40 total) plus responses by the devices, my reactions and scoring the results... I feel this is a fairly thorough test, even if it is off the cuff, and better than a quick 5 - 10 minute shoot.
Hope you enjoy this presentation.... And let the comment war begin.
Hello all,
I just have received the Samsung S9+ SM-G965F duos, blue colour in Finland. I don't know if it happened in other countries, but the early buyers in Finland got the phone today.
I'm not reviewing the phone, but my quick impressions are that S9+ feels considerably faster than the s8 and the fingerprint reader is in much better position and very fast response.
I have benchmarks from Geekbench and Antutu.

Thx Gavin, i just see it right now, meanwhile i was looking in here and saw this in the same time. Really strange i see this thread in the same time [emoji23]
Hi folks,
I have been using the Galaxy Z Flip4 for about 10 days coming from my primary device the S22 Ultra. This is also the main theme of my Z Flip4 review - is this phone good enough to be a primary phone in 2022?
Are the camera & battery on point? We know that the previous 3 generations of flip-foldable phones were bad in this domain.
Those are the main questions that I seek answers too... This Galaxy Z Flip4 review is not the one that focuses on technical details, specifications, those are well covered and well known. I focus more on the practical side, on the human side of things.
Also - the fact that the Flip4 flips in half, is there any real value for an average user, if yes, what is that? But also - what are the negatives in using a flip phone? Hope you will find some answers there.
