Recently upgraded to Z Fold 7 from S22 Ultra. Thought the phone was practical for what I do for work (viewing schematics and parts diagrams) for 2 weeks, but today I returned it, and just stuck with my S22 Ultra. Curious if anyone else was or is annoyed at how narrow the cover screen is, (that was my first foldable phone) and to be really honest not much felt different or seen any differences with the os that really was attention grabbing. But debating about switching to the forbidden fruit, cause the layering of software on Samsung phones just doesn't seem cohesive, am I crazy for thinking this or noticing this? Curious about everyone else experience and thoughts.

Particularly between the Samsung software and Googles not working together in a manner that seems like it's 1 or feels like it's all together, the best way to phrase it is almost like a staggering effect

@RandomGuy9914 "Particularly between the Samsung software and Googles not working together" how is that different on the Fold 7 vs your S22 Ultra?

Its not really different, just expecting a more refined experience, dont get me wrong, it is more refined, but just struggled with a premium price tag and still noticed, im most likely complaining. I believe the fold 7 is a fantastic phone, but just didn't suit my needs or expectations, now im lost

The Fold 7 is my first foldable phone. Upgraded from the s23 Ultra so there is a noticeable upgrade in the OS to me.

I prefer the width of the Fold 7 to the S23 or S10+ that I had.

I find the outer screen good for quick things, but I end up spending most of my time on the large screen.

It's great for multitasking or side-by-side entries.

I think the sound quality is slightly better.

I'm enjoying the AI assistance.

I think it is my favorite phone in the thirty years that I've had them.
