My phone received the latest update this past Wednesday night and seemed to work normally. Thursday morning, I noticed it was lagging and occasionally unresponsive. Thursday afternoon, while checking my email, the phone suddenly started rebooting. No matter what I tried, it just kept rebooting until it completely bricked. Now, the phone won't even turn on. Is anyone else experiencing a similar issue? I find it very strange that my phone was functioning perfectly, and a day after the update, it completely bricked.

Try this, wipe cache partition!

While phone is off, press the power button and the volume up button simultaneously, when you see the Samsung logo, let go of the buttons. Using Volume buttons for scrolling and power button for Yes, scroll down to Wipe Cache Partition, press power button for OK, scoll to Yes, press power button, reboot now. Press power button.

I hope this helps

Had to buy a new phone, which is absolutely ridiculous. My S22 Ultra was working perfectly fine until that last update. After that, it wouldn’t even boot up, and because of that, I couldn’t get any trade-in credit. Total loss.
Samsung should, at the very least honor trade-in value for devices their update rendered useless. Do Better Samsung!!!!

My S22 ultra got stuck  on the update UI7, it never completed and i starting having issues  like screen  turning off, freezing and battery life , I  re booted it many times tried to re install UI7 but it just never  completed the update and at the end I had to get another phone. there are  comments in many places that the update UI7  c for certain models  specially the S22 was having serious issues. many comments say  you can try and factory reset it  but it doesn't guaranty fixing the issue. I tried sending my phone   as a trade in and Samsung said it was not eligible, they ended up sending me  back a different phone not the one I sent in bad conditions different s pen and not turning on not even in reboot mode witch is BS . so disappointed.
