Samsung Galaxy S22 Series Replacement Batteries

Why Your Galaxy S22 Battery Matters

Every Galaxy S22 runs on a lithium-ion battery, and by now, most S22 phones are a few years old and well past Samsung's original warranty. That means it's completely normal for the original battery to hold noticeably less charge than it did when the phone was new, especially with daily use, frequent fast charging, or heavy gaming.

You don't have to guess whether your battery is the culprit. Most Galaxy phones let you check battery health directly in settings, usually under Battery and Device Care, then Diagnostics. A rating of Weak, or a battery percentage that's dropped well below 80%, is a clear sign it's time for a new one. A few other things to watch for:

• Your phone drains much faster than it used to, even with light use
• It shuts off unexpectedly, even with 20% or more showing on the screen
• The back of the phone feels warm, or the case looks slightly puffed out (a sign of a swollen battery)
• Your phone only stays powered on while plugged in

Battery swelling in particular has been reported by S22 owners a couple of years in, so don't ignore a phone that looks slightly bulged or a back cover that no longer sits flush. If you notice any of this, replacing the battery is usually all it takes to bring your S22 back to full strength.

Choosing the Right Battery for Your Galaxy S22

The Galaxy S22 series includes three phones, and each one takes its own specific battery. The S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra are not interchangeable, so it's worth double-checking your exact model before you order.

• Galaxy S22: fits SM-S901 series models
• Galaxy S22+: fits SM-S906 series models
• Galaxy S22 Ultra: fits SM-S908 series models

You can find your exact model number in your phone's Settings under About Phone, or printed on the original box. Every battery on this page is cross-referenced against Samsung's OEM part numbers, so if you're not sure, just match the model number on your phone to the compatibility list on each product page.

Once you've got the right battery, we also carry a few things to make the swap easier:

• A battery installation toolkit with everything needed to safely open your phone and remove the old battery
• A charging brick to get your S22 back up to full power once the new battery is installed
• A USB-C charging cable to go with it

Installing Your Replacement Battery

Replacing a Galaxy S22 battery at home is a manageable project if you take your time and use the right tools. Let your phone's battery drain below 25% before you start, since a fully charged lithium-ion battery is more sensitive to damage while it's being handled. Power off the phone completely and disconnect any cables first.

Keep in mind that opening the back cover will break the seal that gives your S22 its water resistance rating, so the adhesive needs to be reapplied carefully during reassembly. After installing your new battery, it's a good idea to fully charge it to 100%, let it drain completely, then charge it back up again. This helps your phone accurately read the new battery's charge level going forward. If your battery looks swollen, handle it carefully and avoid pressing or bending it during removal. If you'd rather not tackle it yourself, a local phone repair shop can install the battery for you using the same part.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which S22 battery is compatible with my phone?

A: Check your phone's exact model number in Settings under About Phone, then match it against the compatibility list on each battery's product page. The S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra each use a different battery, so the model number is the fastest way to confirm you're ordering the right one.

How do I check my Galaxy S22's battery health before replacing it?

A: Go to Settings, then Battery and Device Care, then Battery, then Diagnostics. Your phone will show a battery health rating, usually Good, Normal, or Weak. A Weak rating, or noticeably reduced runtime compared to when the phone was new, is a good sign it's time for a replacement.

Do I need special tools to install a Galaxy S22 replacement battery?

A: Yes, most S22 batteries are held in place with adhesive, so you'll need a few basic tools like a suction handle, prying tools, and heat to safely remove the back cover. We offer a battery installation toolkit designed for this exact job, so you're not stuck hunting down tools separately.

My Galaxy S22's battery looks swollen. Is that safe?

A: No, a swollen battery is a safety hazard and shouldn't be ignored. Stop using and charging the phone as soon as you notice bulging or a back cover that no longer sits flush, and avoid pressing, bending, or puncturing the battery. Replace it as soon as possible with a new one.

Can I return my battery if it doesn't fit my phone?

A: Yes, Battery Mart accepts returns within 60 days of purchase. If you order the wrong battery for your S22 model, just reach out through our contact us page or check our returns policy for the full details.
