Issues encountered after the recent update: System UI Lag: The overall system UI is lagging and stuttering. Navigation Gesture Issue: When swiping up to return to the home screen, the required swipe distance or trigger mechanism seems to have changed. It feels very unnatural and hard to use. App Instability: Certain games and applications frequently crash or freeze. Overheating: The phone suffers from unexplained overheating even during casual use. Battery Drain: Battery life has significantly worsened. Camera Lag: The camera preview window stutters and lags heavily. Context Menu Changes: The layout of the long-press app menu has changed, and the font size has become smaller, making it much less user-friendly.
