For Samsung users: what are some Samsung exclusive softwares that make Samsung (Folds) > alternative brands?

(1) As per title. What are some exclusive Samsung software that makes Samsung so good?

I have the current Fold 5, but the only software I use daily that is exclusive to Samsung, as a Master's student, is the Notes. And even then, only because the Notes has S-pen support.

BUT. S-pen support stopped from 6 onwards I believe, so that's a major hit to Samsung's advantage and I don't see why I shouldn't consider alternative brands?

Samsung used to be the pioneer of Foldables, but we now see competition from other brands that make better screen ratios + creaseless + battery + better price for quality.

(2) Most phones use Android and I honestly can't the difference between Samsung Android vs Android on a random competitor.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own any other Samsung devices like laptops, so the "ecosystem" argument won't work here...

Everything announced at Google I/O 2026... Makes me want to sell my phone.

I don't want Spark always on 24/7 even when my phone is locked. I don't want Google's AI reading my emails, or my calendar events. I don't need a more intelligent search box, I don't want a Gemini-powered universal shopping cart, I don't want to conversationally search, or get interactive follow-ups from YouTube.

I want my phone to be very good at being a phone, and part of that means no spyware from Google or anyone else. I don't care how Google spins or frames it. They've made it crystal clear that consent is opt-in by default, and "no" means "maybe later."

Anyone else?
