Anonymous, 13 Jan 2016I think this just has more to do with all the bashing. Same... moreTrue to that. They are only making changes for those complaints now. Until S5, Samsung had a "vision" of their Galaxy S, now they just listen to that minor public for building phones, which isn't 10% of total sales.

It is smooth with just 1.3ghz single core n 512mb of ram.. Not lagging even when opening/zooming/panning these unbeatable 38MP pictures.. Not moving to android until it has a native file explorer and it is able to install 100% of app into microSD which symbian does since the old days.. Heck even symbian can hot-swap microSD which android can only dream of

          For years and years now all you ever see all over the entire internet from everyone on sites/forums/blogs/videos etc etc is how the Galaxy was a cheap ugly plastic flimsy toy unworthy of a flagship.....
          And how terribly slow and horrendous and laggy touchwiz supposedly always has been compared to others.
          Even coming from people that claim to be professionals.

            There is no such thing as perfection. Especially when it comes to mass produced consumer goods.
            Reality.......You should try it some time.

                  Can everyone stop being so idiotic? They said "like Apple" watch the video and the change to the scrolling speed is so minor but the increased smoothness is immediately noticeable. Honestly everybody just bashes Samsung, I'm all for constructive criticism but everyone in these comments acts like a spoiled child.
