    Samsung S22 Ultra. Probably battery life, specifically that 15% means “you have 5 minutes left”. And how long it takes to open the camera app and take a photo.

    OS is okay, performance outside of the camera issue is okay, size, camera quality, screen, s-pen… I could have changed it this year and chose to skip. I might change it next year or even try to make it to 2026. New battery might be needed for that.

      Probably battery life, specifically that 15% means “you have 5 minutes left”.

      I’m assuming that unless this is some kind of 3D gaming thing, that you can’t deplete your battery from full in 33 minutes. So I’m guessing that the battery estimation is just off, reads a higher percentage remaining than it should at that point.

      There are some power monitor software packages other than the built-in one that can do their own prediction that might be more-accurate. I have BatteryBot on my phone, and I’d bet that there are others out there.

        Yes, it’s specifically the estimation. It takes like 1 hour to go from 100 to 90 and mere minutes from 15 to 0. Given that I only charge to 80% to protect the battery, it feels like only having 65% of battery usable.

      Interesting, I don’t start to worry until I reach 5%. But I keep my brightness pretty low. How long does it take for yours to pull up the camera?
