Updates

Since this new Android 14 update, the 6.0, my phone has been lagging like crazy. 

Everytime I try to leave an app and open another, it bugs. I don't if it's my phone or the update but my bet is on the latter, since it wasn't like this before. It was right after I updated, everyday it lags and my phone screen goes completely black to the lock screen for no reason.

I've the A53 as one of my backup phones and it's flying after that update. You should always clear the cache partition after any update. If you don't know how to do it. Go on YouTube and search for it.

to clear partition cache, should I save all My downloads and photos, phone #s before clearing partition cache.

Well it's good practice to back up regularly anyway.
Wiping the Partition Cashe doesn't affect any of you files like photos etc.
All that gets cleared are old files, cookies, corrupted data etc from the Partition Cashe
All other stuff won't be affected.

I read that a factory reset after a major update allows the phone to adjust better
