My s 24 ultra is hanging after updating ONE UI 8.O

The recent phone update has introduced noticeable performance issues, impacting overall usability. The device has exhibited consistent hanging and unresponsive behavior since the update's installation. This sudden change in functionality is a cause for concern, requiring immediate attention. Addressing this problem is crucial to restoring the phone's expected performance and user experience.

I have been having the same issues after the update on my S24 ultra. Wiping the cash partition did nothing. I would say 25% of the time I'm using it it feels like a 6-year-old phone and it freezes daily. Volume buttons randomly don't work and audio from apps will play out of different devices even though there's no separate app sound set up for the devices im using. There's been a couple times I've had to force shut down my phone to get something to stop playing out of the speakers which is not something I want to have to deal with in public or at work. I know factory reset is the next step but it's a lot work on a Samsung. The issue started immediately after I installed One UI 8. This was also the full release version and I am fully updated.

I'm having the exact same issue after the recent updates. 

Phone hangs at least 2-3 times a day sometimes restarting on its own and sometimes I have to force restart because the phone becomes absolutely useless. 

Yesterday it just crashed while I was on phone call. 

I have noticed issues even with NFC where it doesn't respond while making payments.

Another issue is NFC doesn't switch off after I've used Samsung pay, previously is used to switch off after I had made the payment. Now I have to switch it off manually. 

I've been a Samsung user starting with S7 edge and this has been by far the worst experience I've had after a major update. How did we get to this? Everyone got moved to enable ai features and no one tested the basic features?

What's the ETA for a patch to be released as this is definitely not an isolated issue? Given the original message was posted a month ago, does this need to be posted on social media to get the right response?
