I still think Galaxy S 2 is the smoothest Android phone out there and it's running Gingerbread. Wait until it gets ICS.
I'm kinda disappointed by Galaxy Nexus.
Scrolling with the S2 feels weird though. The scrolling animation is smooth, ill hand it that, but its as if its slightly behind the movement of my finger. Dont have that problem with the GN, which is also very smooth in every native app. Apps not yet optimized for ICS seem to be laggy from time to time, but its app depended imo.
Overall I prefer the GN.

Nah, I feel the Galaxy Nexus is smoother.
And ICS smoothness is overrated, it doesn't magically make the phone smoother at all, at best you won't notice any difference, but I imagine the phone being bogged down by a Touchwiz/ICS combo.

Isn't 4.0.3 meant to increase performance and fix the scrolling issues?

I didn't see any scrolling issues in 4.0.1 or 4.0.2.
if anyone have WhatsApp and have alot of messages in one chat..can he record a video and uploaded to i see how scrolling smooth is GN+ICS
sorry for my bad english
There is definite lag. I can't use live wallpapers on the Nexus because of the slowdown. Quite annoying, but oh well.
Or maybe the app isn't optimized for ICS yet as the OS / device is relatively new?
Google can't control what app devs do.

Live walls at 720p....
Same problem on Rezound as well. By the way, aosp walls work a hell of a lot better than the retail ones. Lag is pretty much gone if the live wall does not scroll with launcher screen.
(Let me preface this with a pre-emptive statment that I love Android (had a GTab, currently have a TF. And I am not a "this phone rules, that phone sucks" kind of guy, these are simply my DISPASSIONATE--albeit subjective--observations.)
Call it minor or whatever, but I have to admit, the lag is one of the big reasons keeping me from getting the phone. I've tried them out in stores, all running 4.02, closed all programs, used static wallpaper, etc., and the screens lag. And almost every online video I've seen seems the same way.
Obviously it's not like the 1st generation Android phones (which truly had horrible lag), but still, I think it's kind of unacceptable in this day and age and on a $300 phone. The GS2 is noticeably smoother -- instantaneous, really. Smoother than any phone I've ever used, iPhone included.
I want to love this phone so much -- great screen, ergonomics, and, obviously immediate updates and dev support, but I'm having a hard time getting over the somewhat laggy response.
I had a GTab which, if you're familiar with them, positively sucked out of the box, but the ROMs were awesome and made it super smooth... Maybe the ROMs and/or updates will do the same for the GN.
Anyway, please re-read my first statement before you say, "well, then just get the GS2," or somesuch. Like I said, I'm not dissing the phone in any major way -- but I need to love this phone if I'm dropping $300...
I've gotten it very smooth with Cyanogenmod and Franco's kernel (smoothest by far). But I too feel the S2 is smoother. Wish they used the Exynos lol well when the S3 comes out I'll just sell this and buy that retail. Hopefully it comes to Verizon.

Omap can hold its own vs. Exynos. What you meant was the mali gpu.
Today I went into Verizon (got T-Mobile) but wanted to play with one and compare it to my ns, and the demo I played with was a bit stuttery ,I even wiped the phone in the store ,and was still stuttery/laggy my ns runs way smoother compared to the one I played with,I'm really hoping it was just that particular phone,cause if T-Mobile ever offers it subsidized I plan on getting it,but not if it runs like the demo I messed with today...bottom line I left Verizon today a bit disappointed...

Demo units aren't really a true representation of what the phone will feel like when you actually unbox it. It was being used by a bunch of other people who could of even installed apps of it. I have a NS and I can say the GN is just so much faster on ICS.

That has nothing to do with what I said. I have noticed that most apps run a lot smoother when I have force GPU acceleration on. Including Facebook, Groupon, Twitter, Netflix, etc.
This is what the OP was talking about and I offered a solution.
Also, 4.0.3 is a lot smoother than 4.0.2.

I'm pretty disappointed with the Tab 3. Seems very slow/laggy. In addition, there is zero development on XDA for the tab 3. I know this just came out in the US, but it has been out for months worldwide. I've had this tablet for a couple weeks, so it's not just a first impression at this point.....
Currently, very unstable root and recovery. No custom roms. No way to install scripts/intd.
I've had a Galaxy 3 phone for about a year and love it. My phone runs circles around the Tab 3 in terms of responsiveness, processing......pretty much everything actually.
Am I getting a unique experience with my Tab or is everyone noticing the slow, dragging, instability of this tab? Size and screen are great, but do not outweigh the performance issues in my book.
Anyone else returned/exchanged their Tab 3? If so, what did you return it for? Thinking about going w/ the new Nexus 7, but there are a lot of options out there....please help!!!!!!
Weird. I had the nexus 7 2, the note 8, and now the tab 3 8. I don't think the tab is slow at all. Granted I don't play games, but overall I think its quite responsive and solid all around.
But I've seen a few complaints about how awful it is so it seems people have vastly different experiences.
Did it get slower over time? What are you doing when it lags? Did you install a ton of weird stuff?

Not at all. I don't play games on it or anything that requires heavy cpu usage. Just basic navigation is very slow. Is your tab rooted?

Nope not rooted.
Yeah I wish I could return mine at this point the asus memo 7 hd seems like a much better choice for 50 less than this thing.

I owned a Nexus-7 2013.. Took it back on the 15th day.. (Walmart) They're a lot of issues going on with the N7.. GPS being the main one.. And there are some bad ones out in the field.. So be warned. I was lucky and got a good one, but it just did not justify the price (32 Gb) $294.00 out the door.. for the size of the Tablet for me.. I also own an iPad Mini.. and the 7" Screen of the N7 just was not cutting it for me after being exposed to the 8" 4:3 Screen of the iPad Mini for the last year or so.. The N7 just seem too small.. lots of development for it.. but for me they were the same ROMs I was running on my recently sold Galaxy Note.. so they were Quite Boring and offered nothing new. Then I spotted this Tablet and the Beautiful Saturated Colors and it's 8" Screen won me over on 1st sight.. You got a bad Tablet.. You should just do a Factory Reset Wipe everything and go back to how the Tablet was when it came out of the box. if it's still laggy.. Return it and try another Tab 3 8.0 or something else. Mine was fast out of the box .. is now rooted and still smokes.. have you tried a different launcher? have you gone into developer options and adjusted your animations for faster response...?

I think this is about the Tab 3 "8.0" but you are correct... the Asus would be a better choice when comparing to the Tab 3 7.0.. IMO..
Sell what you got for $150.00... Then buy the Asus.
You are still cutting someone a deal if your unit is still in "Like New" Condition..
Speed
Mine is rooted and still is quite responsive.
Speed wise it was not as fast as the Note 8.0 but it is only dual core!
Ran Antutu on Note 8.0 and tab 3 before buying tab 3 8.0
note was 16,000 and tab 12,000
Where as my mtk6569 Note 5.5' clone came in at 16,138.
my old mtk6575 was around 9,000 from memory. But it has gone to the gods RIP.

This is potentially misleading. It's the same clock rate processor. For many tasks the Tab 8 is just as fast as the Note 8. Exactly the same speed.
Where a quad core will shine over a dual core is when you're trying to do lots of stuff at once. The main area I noticed a difference is something like loading a huge web page and trying to scroll while it's still loading. Lots of stuff happening at the same time there so more processors makes a clear difference.
But for basic, one at a time tasks where there's not much parallelism to be found, there isn't much noticeable performance difference.
I don't know if the '8 is that much different, but my tab 3 10.1 is among the speediest i' ve ever used(tablets)

so i just got a brand new nexus 7 2nd gen last week and so far i love it but nearly every game is suffering from what i can understand as "stuttering" or "microstutter". its as if the games just dont play smooth, several games hitch and lag when there is alot of movement on the screen, i am on the latest version of android (kitkat 4.4.4) and my device is rooted, but this issue even still affected the tablet even before the root. So what on earth could cause my games to stutter and lag like they do?? also i have tried disabling google currents entirely and that did nothing. so do any of you android users out there know anything i can do to fix the lag in my games? also my nexus 7 also seems to be suffering from random reboots as well. I am certain it is a software issue and not the tablet itself, because i have read that many other users of this tablet are having the exact same problem after updating to kitkat 4.4.4, Please try to make your replies as simple as possible because im a total noob in this whole android stuff and im just getting into hacking and tweaking my first ever android tablet.
I'm suffering extremely Jerky scrolling issue in different apps.
I was also quite excited about this purchase made just a few weeks ago. Can't be more disappointed.
You can try an app called "lag fix". It'll TRIM your storage. It made a huge difference in previous Nexus 7, but I didn't notice any difference whatsoever in my case on Nexus 7 2013.
This will be effectively my last Asus product.
I have had NONE of these problems on mine. I love mine and it works great for me. You should definitely try a hard reset because they usually work quite well on things like this.

Ever since the Note 4 was announced, even before then I was always interested in wanting to upgrade to it. especially since it would be a big step up from the Note 2 which I currently own. Spec wise and look wise the phone looks great but after going to the Verizon store and playing around with it I started leaning towards not getting for the sole purpose of how bad the phone was lagging. I am not willing to deal with lag for another 2 years especially with the lag on the note 2 (home button lag is annoying). Maybe the floor model was acting up but in all honesty after owning the phone for at least a week, do you notice some lag?
No lag it's most powerful phone on market atm.
I actually have run this one constantly with multi window open. I have have done that continuously with any of the previous 3 note versions I have had. The only lag I get is sheet a full day, and not closing out any of the apps that I have had open all day. Every now and then, yes, I may get a delay. But thats not very often at all. But, once I close all the tasks, it's good to go again. It really is a fast device.
I also hesitated to upgrade to the 3,but this version really is a major step forward for the series. I would even think twice based on the phones at the stores. I don't know what they do to those phones, but they always seem glitch ridden to me. But no lag at all here.

There is lag on this device and if anyone says different they're full of it or they've become use to Crapwizz. Having said that the lag is minimal but definitely noticeable. I currently own Note 4 and Nexus 6. Nexus 6 hums compared to Note
Little to no lag at all only lag I notice is for some reason when u hit the recent aoos button other than that especially coming from a note 2,this thing flies. Touchwiz has actually improved a lot recently
buy first. think later
I'm not having any lag, it's fast as hell...remember on anything mass produced there is about 10 percent defective. Just saying...
In real world use there really is no lag that I can see...probably side by side with a Nexus 6, the N6 will be slightly faster but unless you are carrying both around all the time testing it, you won't notice the Note 4 being slow. It is much faster than my note 2 I can tell you that.
I was going to get the 5x, but none of my friends whom already had .... had the phone said that don't buy one
It's not a Nexus .... No Nexus laggy
Is there an update or solution to it?
if you come from an old phone like galaxy s3 or galaxy s5 then Nexus 5X then you will notice improvement you won't notice the lag.
but if you come from a very fast phone like HTC one M8 and iphone 6s and Nexus 6 (2014) then you might notice some lag on Nexus 5X
It's not a deal breaker. you should be ok. try testing it from a High Street (shopping Center) shop and if you like it keep it or get a exchange or refund if you have problems with it.
if you like fast update's and 3 years of update cycle then get Nexus 5x or Nexus 6P.
and After 3 years you can Install new ROMs and kernels and get the latest Android. its Good for developers etc.
Nexus 6P is more faster.
depends what you like. everyone is different. you think different then me and like different things then me.
some people like more features like split screen, SD card, removable battery, better speakers, battery life. etc.
I think the solution is to remove the 3rd party software that is causing their lag. As far as I'm concerned, this device does not lag in any way. Faster than my Nexus 5 and runs cooler while doing so.
im coming from htc m7, no lag at all, a lil stutter here and there, but not lag
I come from the Oneplus One and i notice lag in everything, its not stuttering but its just slow to respond on things like opening apps, it just takes a bit longer for it to load things, quite annoying.
