Why do I feel like samsung slows down their Mid/Low range phones on purpose

[VinayakRaj]

Ok guys don't get me wrong but one month ago I bought my new Galaxy F15 and ever since the day I got it it's been running very slow, even when it was brand new and there weren't any apps installed on it. But when I see other phones from different companies Like Redmi which have basically same specifications I see their phones are working like charm, my phone has 4GB of RAM and it has constant usage of 2.6-2.7GB Ram even when Idle so what's the problem?
