Android 11 Performance decrease

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: ZenFone 7 Pro
Firmware Version:
Rooted or not: No
Frequency of Occurrence: Often
APP Name & APP Version (If your issue relates to the app):
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
So I updated ZenFone 7 Pro to Android 11 and of course I did expect slowdowns but I'm asking if there will be an update or anything to make the phone work properly like it used to.
For starters, the All Apps app drawer is working fine although a little laggy but also it doesn't show the wallpaper when I open it like it used to.
The phone sometimes lags a bit during easy tasks like scrolling up conversations and all that and also switching accounts in Instagram too for example.
I'm mainly hoping there will be an update to make the phone work better with Android 11.
Thanks so much.

So full of it I can't believe my eyes . every time someone updates their phone they can expect a decrease in performance. My god Google shut him down before someone actually believes he knows what he's talking about

Not entirely true, while A11 does perform similair after some fixes from google and should perform very very slighlty better than A10 at this point. The problem still lies in the way that android is installing an update. When updating from a previous version to a newer one, it easily happens that suddenly you experience weird performance drops here and there because the update mechanism of Android is quite bad causing stupid bugs all over the place. Generally it's recommended to do a complete factory reset when updating to a new android firmware, if it is still lagging, then there is something wrong as the Zenfone 7 is by no means slow nor that A11 is even that much different from A10. So if the OP resets his phone and then still has the bugs, then there is clearly something wrong with the actual A11 firmware.
