    I was wondering what was wrong with my phone, i thought a reboot would fix it and forget to do it everytime.

    The lags are actually quite unpleasant and noticable, i wonder how it wasn't caught before the release.

      Gosh, I have noticed a number of my apps (Pixel 11 fold 'pro') simply halting under high workload. This is that I suppose.

        The linked post seems to say that Pixel 11 hasn’t received QPR1 so far and might not have this bug?

        Pixel 11 series received a bug fix release near the start of September 2026 with the 2026-09-01 patch level. That update wasn't Android 17 QPR1 and also doesn't include the September 2026 Pixel firmware/driver security patches. Perhaps they noticed this issue and cancelled it.
