iPhone 14 Pro Max terrible out of the box

Hi everyone,

Not quite sure if I made a poor purchase here but this iPhone 14 pro max is giving me the following issues:

-Lag on app switch

-Processor/RAM overload (spinning wheel thing)

-Intensive stutters with just about every native app activity

-Camera lag

-Camera processing issues (the images quite literally do not load at points)

additional info:

iOS 16.3

Verizon distribution

Purchased 1/15/2023

I’m sure I’m missing a few but overall this has been the worst experience to date with a new iPhone. My 4s performed better lmao. The point of this post is to figure out if I’m alone in my experience or I’m missing a quick fix? Thank you!
