Z Fold 7 vs 8 Ultra Speaker Downgrade!?

I have the 8 Ultra in use for a week now and felt like the speakers are a little bit off.

I compared them just now to my Fold 7 and honestly feel validated. They sound a bit tinier and flatter to my ears in comparison, like a little bit echoey. They just might be a tad louder, that's it.

What about people that can compare the 2 phones out there? How do you feel?
