Default Weird (Minor) Issues - New Battery Needed?

Just picked up car few days ago. Having a few weird minor issues with the car, feel like they can be attributed to potentially needing to replace battery. I didn’t see it on the CARFAX as being done recently but highly doubt it’s original since car is 2018.

-car cranks fine but takes a bit to turn over on some starts

-up shift paddle wouldn’t work for a bit once but came back. Wouldn’t rev match downshifts either.

-seat memory doesn’t work when I first get in but will start working when I open door, turn on engine, etc. very inconsistent

-at low rpm’s the car seems to disengage the gear? Appears that this is normal and contributes to the clunkiness of the ‘18 transmission.

Not all battery related but wondering if one or more of these are indications I need a new battery. TIA!
