Iphone 13 pro max is sluggish and slow.

I recently bought a brand new iphone 13 pro max 256 gb from apple authorized reseller. From the date of purchase i have been noticing significant lag in every aspect of user interface. Its as if im still using my old iphone XR. Some of the contacts wont show up in spotlight,the camera opens slowly,the sensitivity of hey siri is very poor and sometimes doesnt even respond if i yell at it from near,the message preview popup when it arrives wouldn’t show any text. I can go on saying like these so many niggles. After spending a fortune on one of the best and latest iphones the experience i get back is horrible. Very disappointed apple👎🏼
