For the first time ever my S24+ lagged while playing Genshin Impact after the One UI8 and android 16 update. Are they doing the same thing still, slowing down the older phones?

Apple was caught slowing down their phones in 2017 globally, and Samsung was caught only in Italy in 2018. In both cases the Manufacturers said that it was to protect the batteries & functionality in older phones because they were not designed for the then recent updates..

Samsung is absolutely not slowing down your device!

Try Clearing Cache from Recovery, or even a Factory Reset.. 

I always Factory Reset my devices after any Android / One UI version update... never had any issues.
