Hopefully you can see from these pics, thanks!
They have a lot of pad depth left, the "curled up" bit is actually a chamfer on the pad that extends to about half the pad depth, you can see it on these new pads: https://c1552172.ssl.cf0.rackcdn.com/964113_x800.webp

The pad remaining calculation on some F22s was somewhat out on earlier software releases, I believe that recent updates have fixed that. Don't worry about pad replacement until the sensor for low brake pad thickness triggers.
