    Anonymous, 29 May 2013The lag in the Galaxy S4 is all about the new touchwiz feat... moreTouchwiz = launcher

    S4 / S3 does not just lag in launcher, it lags in browsing/gaming/social apps.

    And who to blame? .. No not samsung. Its the damn lazy google, who just keep quiet, add lousy lame features, patch with "proj butter" which did not even solve the lag issue. Having to use such massive battery and fast cpu.. just to lag?? What crap android google has become.

        At least Snapdragon 800 supports OpenGL ES 3.0 while Exynos 5 doesn't.

        And not just that. Snapdragons are nicer to the devs, they trend to provide proper documents support.

                My GS3 have 2GB Ram and dual core 1.5 snapdragen and still runs so slow why is that, why iPhone runs so smooth and all games runs so smooth and fast. I was playing NFS racing game on GS3 frezz and slow. 90% games runs slow on android phones.

Running AOSP or even disabling features and running Nova launcher smooths things out significantly. When the S3 gets updated with some of the new S4 touchwiz features, it'll also get laggier. If the S4 had the S3's touchwiz, it would have no lag at all.

                                    I am useing a note 2 for my daily work. All I need from note 3 is a powerful battery. The 13mp camera is a nice touch as well. It all comes down to the mAh of the battery which can run for two days and gives the user a chance to do his or her work without running to a battery charger every 3 hours.

                                        "It seems that MOST of the users that received their new S4 are complaining about it being laggy. Many users are coming from a Galaxy S3 and are saying that it has more lag, or that it runs slower than the S3. Now that’s not something you would expect from a 1.9 GHz flagship device isn’t it?"

                                        This is from a Samsung user website - "Most" of the users. Interesting really.

                                        But I'm sure this is a once off isolated incident.
                                        As they're powered by Octal Processors, so it can't be true.
