A 90Hz Super AMOLED panel on a budget phone is still worth pointing out, and the Galaxy A22's 6.4-inch screen at 720 x 1600 resolution delivers smoother scrolling than the usual 60Hz display in this price bracket. Underneath is a Mediatek Helio G80 chipset paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, expandable further via the dedicated microSD slot. It's not a gaming chip, but it handles daily tasks and social apps without fuss.
The rear setup leads with a 48MP main sensor with OIS, backed by an 8MP ultrawide and two 2MP helper lenses for macro and depth shots. Samsung Galaxy A22 price in Malaysia starts from RM899, and that gets you a 5000mAh battery with 15W fast charging, so all-day use shouldn't be a concern. It ships with Android 11 and One UI Core 3.1, and comes in Black, White, Mint or Violet.
