As Ho Chi Minh City implements Directive 16, enforcing a 15-day lockdown across the metropolis, brace for the possibility of an extended stay indoors. Allow me to introduce the perfect companion for these days - the Galaxy A22.
Having spent considerable time with the Galaxy A22, here are insights and suggestions for activities to engage in during the 15-day social distancing period.
First 5 days: Experimenting with OIS stabilised camera

For those unaware, the Galaxy A22 stands as Samsung's most affordable and perhaps the only smartphone in this price range equipped with a premium optical image stabilisation (OIS) system. It's truly worth it!
The lenses include: a 48 MP main sensor, an 8 MP ultra-wide-angle lens with 123-degree field of view, a 2 MP depth sensor for portrait shots, and finally a 2 MP macro lens. On the front, there's a 13 MP selfie camera with various filters and quirky stickers for your virtual adventures.
Below is a captivating vlog showcasing the Galaxy A22's features that we shot during these days of social distancing. Dive in for some inspiration!
In everyday conditions, the Galaxy A22 performs admirably, as expected. Even in more challenging situations like low light, when filming inside your kitchen or cooking noodles, you'll notice the OIS working its magic.
The frames are more stable, less blurry, and the colors come out quite decent, with minimal distortion. Especially when shooting distant subjects or zoomed-in photos, the OIS contributes to sharper images by maintaining lens stability.
After spending a few weeks at home, why not try creating a short vlog with the Galaxy A22 and share it on social media platforms? This smartphone will surely surprise you with its capabilities.
Next 5 days: Movie marathon time

All cinemas in Vietnam are closed now, but movie production companies are releasing many blockbusters and TV shows on digital platforms like Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime, etc. There's a plethora of exciting content to explore!
The visual experience on the Galaxy A22 is truly remarkable with its expansive 6.4-inch Super AMOLED display, boasting a brightness of up to 600 nits. Colors appear vivid and vibrant, with deep blacks ensuring comfortable movie marathons even through the night.

It's a bit disappointing that the A22's display resolution is only HD+, but it's not unbearable considering its pixel density reaching nearly 274 ppi.
Despite a slight downside, the overall movie and YouTube watching experience on the Galaxy A22 in the sub-6 million VND segment is quite commendable, in my opinion.
Last 5 days: Engage fully on social media, news channels to stay informed

During the final days, city authorities often announce the next steps, which could involve extending or lifting restrictions. Therefore, it's crucial to stay updated through various social media platforms during this time.
I usually use the Google News app to stay updated on multiple major news outlets, along with leveraging social media channels with strong outreach like Facebook.
One standout feature of the Galaxy A22 is its 90Hz refresh rate display, making every swipe and gesture on this device incredibly responsive, minimizing latency. After using it, you'll likely hesitate to return to traditional 60Hz smartphones.

All these needs cannot be met with a small battery, but the Galaxy A22's 5,000mAh battery is more than enough for a full day of continuous use, handling various tasks effortlessly.
Such long battery life is attributed to the HD+ display paired with power-efficient Helio G80 processor, not to mention the 15W fast charging support allowing quick replenishment of your Galaxy A22.
Conclusion

Despite the social distancing measures, strive to create additional joy at home through entertainment activities. I believe the Galaxy A22 won't disappoint you.
The A22 offers reliable photography and video recording with OIS, a delightful movie-watching experience with its large AMOLED display, smooth browsing with 90Hz, and a sufficiently large battery to handle all these tasks.
Currently, Mytour is offering a significant discount of 420,000 VND (now only 5.47 million VND) when purchasing the Galaxy A22 online from today until 11:00 PM tomorrow (July 18). Limited quantity available, so buy now before they run out!
