For context this was the first iPhone I have ever bought, it worked seamless : smooth, fast, no overheating and lag free.
Ever since I updated to iOS 17 I have been noticing weird lags, everything kinda feels like it has some sort of delay: typing, opening apps, locking the screen etc. Plus I have been noticing that my phone is getting hotter more usual than before when using apps such as Google Maps navigation or Spotify with my car connected to Bluetooth.
I joined the Apple camp expecting that everything “just works”, sadly it feels like an Android experience all over again, only with a greater price markup.
My iPhone Xs still works great with latest OS. Not all phones are created equal. Sometimes a phone just works great through lots of wear and tear and other times, one drop of the device will cause weird things to happen.
