I am still using the old iphone SE from 5 years ago. I will be buying a new iphone soon and most likely the iphone 13 mini.
My main issue with my phone is the battery is extremely bad. Thus it drains very quick especially if making video calls. When watching youtube and other things, it still gets worn out. I had the battery replaced I believe close to 3 years ago at apple. Around that time, the battery was really bad. But after replacement, i remember battery was very good for a bit over a year before it started not being good. The other issue is there is a ton of lag on my phone. Example when I watch youtube, many times when I click on a video and the comments, it takes a long time before comments load. Also youtube program would close many times and I have to reopen it again. Thus its extremely glitchy if that is the correct word to use. Are all old IPhone SE users still experiencing this issue? So this obviously isn't a battery issue that is causing all this lagging right?
But for the time being, am I suppose to always update to the new IOS? I remember not long ago I got message to update to IOS 15 but I never did. I did upgrade to whatever is the 14.x each time there is a software update though.
I'm curious but what if I would do a reset of my iphone SE? Would it be really fast like in factory new condition? Only exception is the battery would be bad just like it is now?
However, if i were to backup my iphone... i never did it fully since i don't have enough space to backup... and I never paid that one dollar a month for icloud i believe... does that mean even if i back it up now by paying for icloud... then reset my iphone factory new... then back it up... would it still be like factory new or would it go back to being as laggy/glitchy as it is now?
I know its mentioned how old iphones don't support new IOS etc. So is that what is meant by like how my old iphone SE lags and has all these issues because its an old phone?
