Short answer, maybe, but go through your installed apps first & get rid of crap you don't use. Even if you still decide to do a factory reset, no sense re-downloading garbage apps. Your phone is still modern enough it shouldn't feel slow day-to-day so it's probably one or more shitty apps causing the problem.
Thanks for the advice. I keep installed apps to a minimum for data privacy purposes. I'll see if there is any other fat to trim though
