Anyone else been getting a bit of a stuttery performance out of the iPhone 12 pro. I sometimes find messaging is slow to type, apps sometimes stutter etc. Just doesn’t feel as smooth as the iPhone 11 Pro was

Same here. I already reported to Apple. I've had this happen several times where I open iMessage and start typing and nothing is happening, then within a second it catches up and is fine. I did notice this only happens from screen off \ sleep then right into messages

Oh man. This makes me feel so much better. I literally thought I was losing my mind.
I have a new 12 pro on 14.2 and it is like jitter city. Good to know I guess that there isn't anything I can do to make it better.

Hopefully Apple fix this, sounds like they are still optimizing iOS for the A14, the first 2 months of software updates are always hit or miss with the new phones it seems.

Yup. It’s an issue with iOS 14, not the phone. I had the same issues with my 2020 SE before switching to the 12 Pro. I notice it most when texting or inputting text like writing this post. I’ll be typing and the screen will freeze and then catch up a second later. It’s annoying but I assume it’ll be patched down the road.
