Performance has been Trash so far...

Hi Reddit people!

I'm a yearly upgrader and do know the struggles each release brings with it as an early adopter but the 8 Ultra kind of freaks me out a bit more than usual.

First of all:

I do love the insane battery life in comparison to the 7, the faster charging, the antireflective coating, the easier to grip and open Halves and I love the green color! So all in all a solid upgrade for me and worth it.

BUT....

The performance has been off since day 1 with OneUi9. Up until today the Ultra performs worse than the 7. The 7 at the end of it's first year was mostly smooth as butter and well optimized.

The Ultra unfortunately has still a long way to go. I don't know if it's an issue with the framerate, the software, app optimization or even heat or a combination of some of these...

Animations occasionally are choppy, scrolling in certain apps is horrendous (e.g. Instagram is the worst; it's unusable - so choppy), touch response is not instant from time to time (navigation buttons and gesture navigation).

I tried clearing caches and a fresh setup with no success.
