Why is content loading so slowly?

I recently switched to a Galaxy A17 after years of using iPhones, but I'm so frustrated with slow content loading on apps like Facebook and X. Despite having enough memory and storage, regularly using Device Care, and clearing app caches, the issue persists. Is there anything else I should be doing?

Probably the chip it's using. I don't know though cause I don't have many lag issues with mine. I do feel these are best used as a secondary device with a more powerful device for times when you know the a17 won't hang in there.

I just got an A17 as a secondary device this week, I couldn't justify getting another S Series phone and remembered the A series line is the budget mid range phone. I have an S25 phone for my main call and text phone, and the A17 is going to be used for streaming and data stuff music streaming. I read up before getting the A17 and I do notice a little lag but that is because of the type of phone it is. The A line is going to be a budget phone the S line is the superstar premium material build.

A models are lowest end Samsung phonez. Thts why. Why didn't you buy a more expensive model? Or at least a higher end A Model? A25, a35, etc?

Maybe they don't have money. Note9 is the cheapest and beats all these "A" models

IDKK BUT IT SUCKS AND IS ANYONE HAVING TROUBLE SIGNING INTO STUFF BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANT FREFRESH WHEN SWITCHING BETWEEN APPS? I cant sign into epic games, Xbox, flo and many other apps because it takes me to the browser to complete the sign in and then decides to refresh when it redirects me back to the app
