If you haven't had any problems with One UI 7 after 2 weeks, it's unlikely there will be any. It's only affected some models and it also depends how you use your phone.

Got the android 15 and ui7 installs on my A16 5G this morning. It has been nothing but issues since then. It seems that eSIM support evaporated! Spent 2 hours trying to get support from Samsung. Worthless ... they told me the best thing to do is reset to factory defaults. Waste of time and now I have to setup the phone again! The functionality did not change. They also suggested to go to a repair center. Based on what I am reading, that will be another waste of time.
This has been a really bad experience. And I had the phone for less than a month! Now it is not more than a brick. I was all set to change mobile providers and install an eSIM so I can use a physical for another carrier. No doing any of that now!

The A16 5G doesn't support esim, it's only available in the higher models. The A16 5G a brick, because it doesn't support esim? What nonsense, your phone is pefectly usable. If you'd done your research you'd have known that the A16 doesn't support esim.

Ah .... then the specs on the samsung site are wrong?
https://www.samsung.com/us/smartphones/galaxy-a16/buy/galaxy-a16-5g-128gb-unlocked-sm-a166uzkaxaa/
and talking with support they confirmed that it supports eSIM.
