    Same boat coming from a S22U to IP15PM - really enjoying the hardware, but the software leaves a bit to be desired.

    The layout of the Samsung Galaxy Ultras makes more sense to me - with all the buttons on the right side. The lack of a back button makes one handed use much harder also, forcing the user to swipe from the left side of the screen or a button at the top left of the screen.

    I also dislike how you still must swipe up even after unlocking your phone with faceid - this should be an option.

    Why does the action button only have a single configuration for long hold and not double press, etc? I could do more on my Samsung’s lock button.

    Software wise, I also dislike how hard it is to install an application that is not on the appstore - requiring sideloading and refreshing, as opposed to just installing an APK.

    So far, I’ve been using my phone with Google ecosystem products like Google Calender, Google Keep, passwords etc as it’s much easier to access them from the web compared to iCloud.

    Camera is better on iPhone imo, since it’s just easier to use and the shutter is much faster.
