Staying up-to-date with the latest Android version and making sure all your apps are updated can help keep things running smoothly.
All Android phones, regardless of brand or price, let you tweak the speed of system animations.
Navigate to Settings > About, and look for the "Build Number" option.
Set the Window animation scale, Transition animation scale and Animator duration scale values to 0.5x. This will make most animations on your Android phone play twice as fast.
In contrast, OxygenOS on OnePlus devices has faster animations by default, so you may not want to cut their duration in half.

Staying up-to-date with the latest Android version and making sure all your apps are updated can help keep things running smoothly. Clearing cache may help with performance, but only in situations where an app's files have become corrupted or bloated.
All Android phones, regardless of brand or price, let you tweak the speed of system animations. You'll find this inside Android's developer options menu, which is hidden by default.
Navigate to Settings > About, and look for the "Build Number" option. Depending on your phone's model, it may sometimes be located under a submenu like "Software Version." Tap the label seven times, and you should see a toast message saying "You are now a developer!"
Head back to the main settings page. You may find the Developer Options menu right there, but if not, navigate to System, and you should now see it.
Set the Window animation scale, Transition animation scale and Animator duration scale values to 0.5x. This will make most animations on your Android phone play twice as fast.
Some Android skins like Google's Pixel UI have more drawn-out animations than others, so using this trick to speed things up can make a noticeable difference. In contrast, OxygenOS on OnePlus devices has faster animations by default, so you may not want to cut their duration in half.

This is Engadget's report shortened to its most important sentences, in plainer words, with

are theirs — quotations are never edited — and the indicators beside it measure
