I was referring to the weirdly wide buttons on his shade, not mine. :)

Hmm. What you’ve posted isn’t far off Samsung’s shade, except for some weirdly wide buttons at the top and a media controller that doesn’t add anything to the experience.

Yes it’s got minor but not insignificant aesthetic differences, but to say Samsung’s is awful and then hold this up as an example of good design… 🤔

Here’s my Samsung’s shade in its two positions (which can be changed to open fully on the first swipe if preferred).

A very utility-focused home screen for me. I love looking at minimalist home screens, but I always seem to come back to this.

Looks fine, I guess. One UI is getting into that boring zone, but that’s consistency for you.

I’ve got the Galaxy Watch4 and I love it. I get nearly two days of battery, which is fine by my standards, and the UX is snappy as hell.

Thank you for this mate, great list! A lot of ugly stuff there, haha, but a lot of gems too. Each to their own, of course!

Pretty tempted to order one of these. I really want a folding phone, but damn it’s hard to talk myself into a Fold 5 when I know this exists.

Sorry yes, those are all Samsung model names that I was listing.

Well, I can’t speak for the Lenovo experience as I’ve never used one, and I’ll happily admit that any Samsung device needs a little tweaking to begin with, but I use my Tab S8 regularly for editing 60mb RAW photos off my full-frame camera and I can confidently say it performs very well.

My daughter uses my Tab S6 Lite and it’s more than up to meeting her demands — which includes a lot of educational games and so on.

My son uses my Tab S4 and he’s had no complaints either.

I mean, there’s not much else a tablet is meant for, really!

Honestly can’t say enough good things about my Tab S8. I use it for editing photos in Lightroom Mobile, and it works so damn well with the stylus. Very responsive and fast.
