Display and Durability

The display of the Galaxy S22 Ultra is slightly bigger. It brings 6.8-inch QHD+ 2x Dynamic AMOLED that has a peak brightness of up to 1700 nits. The display is slightly curved to the sides with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate system. Perhaps, what makes it, even more, the premium is the S-Pen support and IP68 water and dust resistant certification. The display is protected by the next-gen corning Gorilla Glass Victus+.

On the other hand, the OnePlus 10 Pro has a 6.7-inch QHD+ OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Just like the S22 Ultra, the OnePlus 10 Pro display can refresh between 1Hz – 120Hz. However, it lacks IP68 certification which means the phone can get damaged by water penetration. Also, the maximum brightness is 1300 nits and there’s no stylus support enabled.

Overall, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra’s display is top tier. It is a perfect definition of what a high-end flagship screen should be. Although the OnePlus 10 Pro’s display is good, it is found lacking when it comes to durability. The lack of an IP68 rating could be a turn-off.

Camera

When it comes to cameras, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is better. The main camera is crispier – thanks to the 108 MP sensor. Also, when it comes to zooming capabilities, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra can go up to 10x optical zoom, unlike the OnePlus 10 Pro with 3x zoom. Although the 50 MP ultrawide camera of the OnePlus 10 Pro has better quality.

The selfie camera of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra is 40MP and it is sharper than the 32MP on the OnePlus 10 Pro. Moreso, in the area of videography, both smartphones can record video in 8K resolution. But overall, you can take crisp pictures and make good videos on both devices, however, if you want that extra that makes your experience top-notch, that is where the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra comes in.
