Hello.
I noticed that iOS 10.2.1 runs mostly great on my iPhone 6s but sometimes it gets a little sluggish especially (but not always) when the battery is less than 40% charged but with low power mode off.
I'm wondering whether you guys experience the same thing especially for those with an i6 or older or should I do a restore?

How much free space do you have? Also do you use performance intensive apps (games or some other similar type of apps) and/or apps that might be doing something in the background even when you are not using them?

I have about 2gb free space , you know, 16gb iPhone is a big mistake.
You think that could be the problem?

2 GB should be OK, but performance can be affected when not that much free space is left (usually below 1 GB though). I mean if you can free up some more space and see how it goes, it might be worth a shot. I'm assuming you've restarted your phone here and there, as that can usually also help with something like this. Ultimately you can also try resetting all settings to see if that makes a difference, or, perhaps as you mentioned, even restoring completely.
