        If you want better user experience then stock android is the best. Although the phone has some flaws(camera is not upto the mark), it is still a good phone.
        If camera is important to you, go for the galaxy alpha or the htc desire 820.

          U should go for Alpha / iphone 5s / iphone 6 / wait for Galaxy S6


          A5 and 820 are midrange phones , cause Snapdragon 410 and 615 is Mid rangers

                            I ran a few tests on various devices using A1 SD Bench from gplay on internal memory :
                            Device - Read speed / Write speed

                            Alpha - 160Mb/s 80Mb/s
                            S5 - 180Mb/s 30Mb/s
                            G3 (32gb) - 260Mb/s 64Mb/s

                            It was just basic read/write speed, but seeing the speeds of Alpha in writing, i guess it has also best I/O.

                                OS are different, storage used are different quality (my S5 just like my Alpha loads Android in a few seconds, on my empty G3 it's more like 40sec-1min). And off course a game on IOS shares only the name and appearance but not the files/executables/libraries etc.. And given that IOS is the priority for developpers, i'm not surprised of your results.

                                To finish, i know well S5's, were the games installed on internal storage or patially offloaded on a microsd ? Was CPU limitation enabled in options etc..
                                To really compare android phones, you would need to hard reset each ones, or even better, get an aosp rom on each one to make valid tests at same level.

                                And just got the idea to run an internal memory benchmark on both alpha and S5 to see which one has the faster storage.

                                For storage used

                                  IPhone load apps fast because IOS really undoubtedly a better software management than Android and IOS optimise it's hardware very well.

                                  But I still choose Alpha because I just love it.

                                    I have compared loading time of Games like Wildblood , Asphalt 8 , Fifa 15 , walking dead etc on Alpha vs friend's Z3 / S5 / Nexus 6

                                    and its loading faster on Alpha compared to ther s801 or 5420 or s805 phones



                                    But don't know why iphone 6 or even 5s loads this 3 out of 4 games faster than Alpha .
