The Samsung Galaxy S22 Series has been lauded as one of the best camera smartphones for night photography, thanks to its revolutionary pro-grade camera kit. With a rear quad-camera sporting a 108MP rear camera, two 10MP telephoto lenses and a 12MP ultrawide lens, the camera is more than capable of taking photos comparable to a professional DSLR.
But it’s not just the megapixels that do the job; for the 2022 flagship camera smartphone, Samsung has focused on optimizing hardware and software alike to achieve the perfect night photography – or in Samsung’s words, Nightography.
Wait, what?
If this is your first time hearing of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Series, then you’re probably wondering: what in the world is this Nightography everyone keeps talking about?
Simply put, Nightography is Samsung’s revolutionary Night Mode Camera that allows you to take vivid, highly-optimized photos, even in the dark. No more Batman-like night photos; the innovative AI multi-frame processing combines 30 images into just one epic shot while optimising colour and detail in every pixel.
In the case of the Galaxy S22 Series, the superb Night Mode is supported by larger individual pixels, larger sensors, and advanced image processing. The camera has a sensor that can accurately separate the subject from the background, so you can take super delicate portraits from both the front and rear cameras.

It Takes A Village (of Features)
Nightography isn’t just achieved by the cameras alone – there are many other core features that support the revolutionary approach to mobile night photography, especially on the Galaxy S22 Series.
Here’s what goes into making the perfect night shot.
Processor
Let’s start with the aesthetics. With a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor measuring only 4nm in thickness, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Series can house immense power in a slim and sleek exterior so that you can have the best of what mobile photography can offer in the palm of your hand.
The tiny and slim chipset provides an overall increase in performance. Combined with up to 12GB of RAM, it becomes a mini-computer that allows you to edit your photos on the spot without having to switch to a bigger device. Add the versatile Galaxy S Pen into the fray, and you’re now equipped with everything you need to grab an award-winning masterpiece!
Long Battery Life
Ever run out of battery in the middle of a photography session? Save yourself the frustration because the Galaxy S22 Ultra has a 5000 mAh battery that supports up to 45W fast charging on top of wireless and reverse charging.
In our experience, that gives you at least 8 hours of active screentime without taking idle time into account, which is already more than what a standard DSLR battery gives you. Incidentally, the Galaxy S22 Series has the longest battery life yet on a Galaxy device.
Battery optimization is also superb, as you can dial the refresh rate down to 1Hz to save power, while the phone’s AI will learn your usage patterns to increase power efficiency.
Memory
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Series comes with up to a whopping 512GB of internal storage. To put that into perspective, that’s up to 64,000 photos!
And good news! From now until 30 June 2022, you can get a free storage upgrade when you purchase a Samsung Galaxy S22. That means you only have to pay for a price equivalent to 128GB, and get a 256GB ROM device, or 256GB for a 512GB device. Now this is what we call an irresistible deal.
If that’s not enough, Samsung is also offering free 100GB cloud storage on OneDrive for 6 months for all Galaxy S22 Series owners. With this, you’ll get to enjoy the freedom to access, edit, and share your files on all your devices wherever you are, back up your files securely to avoid lost footage, and share your photos with friends and family.
