I have had every Fold since Fold 2 including Fold 6 before I switched to Oppo N5 in February 2025.

Thought I could switch back to Fold 7 but unlikely now.

The drawbacks of Fold 7:

- Still 4400 mAh battery
- 25W wired and 15W wireless "fast" charging. Laughable.
- No more S Pen support

The only think I miss about Samsung is the One UI.

Looks like my next upgrade will be Oppo Find N6 next year!

My Spen has been dead no more charging and connects for air controls on my S22 Ultra seems like that’s why Samsung ditching S Pen now? Soon S26U or S27U won’t be with Spen

Hey folks, as a follow up to my previous post, I’ve pulled the trigger (with some anxiety) and waiting for my phone to arrive. I’m deep in the Apple ecosystem and looking to merge my iPhone and iPad mini into one device. Still need it to work with my AirPods Pro and Mac. Few questions to clarify:

1. Anyone tried AndroPod with AirPods Pro’s? Do they work well?
2. Any way to get AirTags to work or forget them?
3. G Photos and Gallery, they basically keep two copies of the same photo and I’ll need to manually delete one? I’m going from above posting.
4. Moving photos from iCloud to G Photos - assuming photos will be organised by date and location, metadata is carried over? When iFold or whatever comes out, I should not have an issue moving back to iCloud?
5. With G Photos - is there a way like iCloud where it optimises and keeps a lighter version of photo to save storage? I got the 512GB one but want to be safe.
6. Passwords - love how it syncs across my Mac and phone using the Apple Passwords app. Gather that I’ll need to use a diff app. Anyone can recommend an app? Can I set it as the default app on my Mac?
7. Can I run two eSIMs simultaneously on the phone? On google, it says no but one forum says yes.
8. Any other issues to anticipate upon moving and making it sync seamlessly with MacOS?

Lastly what’s a super slim and light MagSafe case that you guys recommend? As for screen protector, just bought the Benks AR one. Hope it’s good.

Thank you for your kind help.

I'll answer some of them since I've been switched from Android to iOS

1. Airpods Pro will work with Android without any issue but don't expect miracles on sound quality you will definitely notice some different compared to iOS
2. Airtags won't work with Android just forget about it
3. G photos automatically will back up gallery with same quality without any issues. Also I'm using G photos as primary backup for iPhone too you can sync iPhone photos to Google

6. Apple Password and Google Password works totally different. So you need set up as new again by using email/user ID and password and save it.
7. I think new smartphones can run 2 esim simultaneously without any issue but My S22U can't only one Esim and physical sim at same time
