A phone that used to feel quick can slowly become frustrating. Apps take longer to open. The keyboard seems to hesitate. Scrolling is less smooth. The camera may take longer to launch. Sometimes the phone feels fine in the morning and sluggish by the evening. When that happens, it is tempting to assume that the …
