For me the more problematic aspect of the 4a is the updates it’s receiving make it so much slower. For instance at this point opening the camera takes around 3s, and the shutter button lags 2s as well.

Going back yo the previous OS would fix that, but it was also buggy and missing proper support for the new gesture navigation. I love the phone but it also makes me hate Google so much.

TBH I don't use gesture navigation so that doesn't matter to me. I just hate Android 12 because it forced ugly gray backgrounds on me. I miss being able to see the active application under my notification shade and to see my wallpaper behind the app switcher.

At this point I think I'm just done with Google's Android and I think I'm ready to try one of those Chinese forks with a super-colorful iOS-like UX.

Huh?

My 4a is works perfectly so far.

This is not my experience - my Pixel 4a takes < 1s to go from tapping on the Camera icon to seeing a camera image on screen. No shutter lag either.

There’s something wrong with your phone. Try resetting it maybe?

Interesting. I thought that was the battery, but status seemed to be ok.

I’ll try to see if there’s some setting killing it.
