Probably the poor quality Chinese copy ARM chips with only 512MB ram that give android "has lag still" a bad name.

On high end phones it's almost not there, or the person is scrolling to fast anyway.
Plus don't count touchwhiz or sense they are skins that are getting to big and buggy now with each version.


Custom ROM high end phone is only fair to compaire
against WP or iOS.

Don't compaire the Chinese cheap phones cause they have super lag problems.

And you spent 3yrs flashing 'terrible' android but yet you have such a deep love for wp and ios, oh so smooth and gorgeous, and all your programmer friends use them lol. Your story doesn't add up sir, its called a reverse fanboy i think...

I have a 2yr old gs2 that runs lag free, and ive never flashed a chip, eaten a kernel or fallen in love with a megabyte. It worked outta the box. Ios and wp work great too, but Id take an android anyday because i like living in a garden with no walls.

Better when used normally.

Google is fixing android for lag.
Give them more time.
Easy for Apple only 1 chip

They have to check code for 10+ and Chinese clone chipset SOC's first to get

Because it tends to be unstable exactly when you need it to be stable. I am sure most droid users will agree with me here - for example you are about to take a picture of your friends or an animal at the zoo and woops - the droid is making everything possible to prevent you from doing this! Or you want to show off your phone to friends - it will always lag and disobey, this is Android Law.

You, Android ppl will never understand... we don't care how good your phones are, because they are running Android - and it is crap!

It's not about your big screens or this feature or that feature, its about quality, unique design look and feel. Its about the best app store.

Quit comparing your dummy phones with their dummy OS, it sux! Don't you get it already?
