Yes It's very fast
Sent from my Motorola Moto G (5S) using XDA Labs

Can confirm, even the factory ROM gives me very good speed and battery live. When custom ROMs and kernels are coming it will get even faster I guess.
Specifically: I don't play games. But I have VPN based adblocker running all time + spotitfy/soundcloud and do surfing with chromium. for these use cases its very fast.

asphalt 8 or real racing 3 working good , I tested

I just got this phone few days ago! Switched from iPhone6s. I know this is more "budget" so it might be crappier, but surprisingly it actually not bad! Works very smooth, but battery life seems to be poor... Anyone have any saving tips? I'm new to Android

are you rooted? if you are, you can install power-saving programs such as Amplify or Greenify, if you have a Moto G5S you can enable the battery saver option, but it really depends on your way to use the device (if you play games with really good graphics or use high cpu demanding apps, you'll obviously waste more battery)

Very good speed for a mid-end device. Throw any game and it'll run fine, although it will get hot enough to make your hands sweat, but not uncomfortably hot. Tested with PUBG and Real Racing.

The 835 combined with the near stock ROM means a silky smooth experience.
It's faster than my tears, and is able to respond before i even have a chance to form a tear in my eye.
Everything is lightning quick even with multiple apps open in the background. Hard to slow this phone down really. Easily the fastest phone I've used.
As expected on SD835, quick and smooth, and so as the bare essentials on this phone. Loved it:good:
Anything I say will be repeating everyone else:
It's really fast.
Just as fast as the Pixel 2 phones for half the price on T-Mobile.
So far, I have been using this phone for a little more than a month. I have to say this is the best phone since I previously own Nexus 5. I am really impressed with the performance, stability, and speed of it. It's really hard to slow down this phone. It's really smooth and fast. This phone has been running for five weeks without a reboot and counting. I don't see any issues with the performance and stability of this phone. The performance is the same since day one. This phone is near stock android combine with top-end CPU make the best experience overall. It blew my mind away.
I LOVE this phone. I came from a note 4. Played around with a note 8.
Real snappy. I only have three complaints
1) stock Android emojis.
2) no headphone jack.
3) I didn't buy it sooner to get the free projector ?
Bought it for my kid. Seriously impressed. The mods are fun, but expensive gimmicks. Ít runs as fast or faster than my Note8. I do wish it was water resistant, but aside from that, it is a good value.

Gonna say overall 3.5/5 to be honest. The thing that drastically lets it down is the lag that I experience when apps are running. I can just launch one single game and I'll already experience some lag. How on earth can my phone be at around 4gb of ram / 6gb of ram when IDLE??
sometimes gestures ( home/recent) can be bit glitchy, but other than that, its flying through everything
it's fast opening apps (probably to look good on YouTube "speed tests" as they used to cheat in benchmarks) but kinda slow in normal use, not really slow but at Note 9 level with a lot of frame dropping, not as smooth as OnePlus 6 (and I assume 6T but I haven't used that)
I think it's like 3/5 for initial speed on start up. After it settles down and used a bit. I assume everything is in memory and quickly accessible with out things running/loading in the background. Then it's 4.5/5. But YYMV.
Needs a little bit of tweaking, but very fast
Went back to the P20 Pro for a few days... The kirin 980 is much faster in everything
awesome speed. love the mate series since mate 9. butter smooth

Only being able to compare it to the 835s of the Pixel 2 and the S8, this phone has been feeling fast for me. I make all the animations .5x so that helps too. Occasional app crashes but hoping that will get worked out with future updates.

Honesty it doesn't feel much, if any slower than a phone with an SD855. I'm sure it could be noticeable in some games, loading times, etc... But everyday usage it feels the same.
I stated before that the merging time when taking pictures would likely be reduced a bit if using an 855, but with them having to customize the 845 for it, I'd prefer a slower merge on a released phone versus a phone that never comes out because they're always trying to get the newest hardware configured for it.
Compared to my xz3 it seems smoother, opening apps faster
Ran 3dmark Sling Shot Extreme for Open GL 3 and Vulcan. Score 4582/4258. Comparison chart on site vs phone app is different. Also i couldn't upload my score, but that could have been because i turned off google app. Apparently i was the first to test this phone with 3dmark
*Edit: I guess you want to know how it works day to day... Overall better than my windows phone, but in general seems appropriately speedy in accomplishing tasks with little or no delay, based on my expectations of how this phone should respond.

It's pretty fast in everyday task handling but then again everything with a SD845 and up is gonna be fast for everyday tasks
With 90Hz and UFS 3.0, lagness is no more. So far happy with it!
This is hands down the fastest phone I ever had. Then again my last phone was a Galaxy S8
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
This is probably the fastest phone ever
Compared with Xiaomi mix 2s, One plus 7t has a huge advantage.
Very fast. Blazing fast.
It's just too fast. after a week i tried xiaomi MI9t pro and it looks so slow and choppy. I'm in love with this phone and 90hz
It's been super fast, until yesterday. It's been at least a week since reboot. I had been driving with Waze, Pandora, and even Youtube open. Stopped to get gas, and use Fuelly. Got super laggy. Restarted while pumping gas. Back to being super fast instantly! Probably will restart once a week just to keep it fresh!

Fastest phone I've owned, especially with unneeded apps uninstalled or disabled. It's so fast I'm afraid I might hurt myself.
It's extremely fast in day to day use. Fastest phone I've ever used. Lg g6 was my last flagship and only point if reference.

day 1 it already has occasional studders. im moving from a top shelf note9 (the one with the bunch of ram) and i DO notice some....hiccups but nothing thats pissing me off...YET....
Navigating the U/I is somewhat hit or miss. The gestures are not consistent, sometimes swiping an app away works sometimes it doesn't. The launcher has frozen a couple times so far but I've only had it for a day so let's see if things settle down. I REALLY hope M/S is quick with software updates to this device because it really feels like a beta version to me.
