I read a couple of reviews saying that touchwiz stutters here and there on the Note 3. Can anyone who has the phone speak on this? Thanks!

Where exactly is "here and there"? I would like to check that to answer your question better.
But i personally don't see any stutter or lag in touchwiz. The only thing i can remember that stutters badly, but very very badly, completely unusable, is the gallery. It's just terrible. Downloading the Gallery ICS from the store, and the thing flies.
I have the N-9005 version btw.
I haven't noticed any stuttering at all.
No lag but I want faster response time. Note 3 touch response time a bit faster than Note 2, slower than S4.

i think the complete opposite, this reminds me of touch response on my 5s, I thought the s4 touch response was terrible.

^^ non so far either, i got like 5 apps on it and have been using it heavily all day.
Gallery lags, get QuickPic instead. There is sometimes a stutter or screen touch response when hitting the home and apps button. Micro stutter almost. Browser sometimes has stutters.
I'm comparing to another Snapdragon device the G2 and touchwiz is not as smooth as LG's launcher and the G2 screen is more responsive to touches.
Its better than my S4's octalag out of the box. Thats for sure. But not 100% lag free unfortunately more like 97% lagfree. Close but no cigar

And I will say just opposite except for s4 part. Absolutely no lag in these 4 days of using Nothing to report...

I think it's acceptable then. As far as the home button lag it usually is because of S voice. Disable it and you should see a big improvement.

I'm picking my phone up on Friday, but I heard the screen sensitivity can be adjusted in settings menu to increase response time for when ur wearing gloves. Try that and see if it helps?

It's pretty smooth , only some frame drops in some apps and sometimes animations stutter.
I'm pretty "lag sensitive" and coming from an iPhone I have to say that it's probably one of the smoothest.

do you have a tutorial to do this?
I have a stock Note 3, and swiping between homescreens is smooth. Lag (jank/hitches/stutter) occurs when scrolling in the browser (some sites perform better than others - but even the sites that perform poorly on the Note 3 perform great on iOS). Scrolling in the ScrapBook is not smooth - very janky/jittery. Same thing with Google Play (the main screen). Scroll and it jitters and stutters a lot. Even does strange screen refreshes at odd times. Scrolling HTML emails stutters (again, some scroll more smoothly than others, but most stutter).
It depends on how sensitive you are to jank.
I am bit disappointed overall. It's not as smooth as my s4, and my nexus 7 2013 is faster and smoother. For example, scrolling home screens is a bit jerky. Native apps can be a little slow to open, say when on the settings menu and making changes and it goes to a sub screen. Makes me realise what a great buy the N7 2ed is.

No lag here n9005 .. no lag in the gallery.. in fact its the fastest gallery I ever seen
Had some occasional lag when I was on MI7 but everything is buttery smooth with the latest MJ7!
Man my phone was released a month ago. I expect lag/software glitches. Early adopters are always mass market beta testers. The hardware specs are proof that all lag is software related. Personally mine runs impressively smooth.

That's interesting, because my Gallery is completely unusable. It's so slow and laggy i can't use it. I have installed a couple of 3rd party gallery and they are all much much faster (Quickpick and ICS Gallery).
How is this possible?!

Hi, first post here!
I was just wondering if anybody else has noticed a little bit of stuttering/lack of smoothness when doing certain things? For example, scrolling down Facebook is not smooth at all for me, Twitter is a lot better but still isn't perfectly smooth! I also notice a bit of stuttering in games such as Temple Run. Also when I go to the menu and scroll right, the first time it stutters a bit, but then will be perfectly smooth after that!
I'm unsure whether this is just the phone, or there is a problem with mine/something slowing it down? I might have just not noticed it when I first got the phone, but I am sure everything was perfectly smooth before.
I would say, yes... but you said "not smooth at all". Is this even after it has loaded pictures, posts, statuses, etc? Maybe a video of this in action or something could help out.
For now, I'm going to say yes, I have noticed stuttering. It is slight and it occurs because the phone and apps are not perfect.
...
Yet.

Ok, but please: Do not blame your phone for the badliest-programmed-app-on-the-whole-planet-ever, named Facebook.
Really mate... These are app issues and have nothing at all to so with the phone.

Could these apps be effected the rest of the phone though? Like I said the menus can stutter sometimes, where they didn't before, and also scrolling down in everything single app has definitely lost the smoothness it had!

I sometimes face this micro stuttering too on entering app center for the first time, entering and swiping the second time after the screen turned off doesn't stutter.

Hey I just got my g2. Incredible phone, there is a learning curve however. I'm not quite used to the dimensions and button the back, but I have only been using it for a couple days so I'll give it t some time. The screen and camera are the best I've ever seen(not counting the nokia1020).
The biggest issue for me right now is performance. Switching in and out of apps and navigating apps is pretty choppy. Had this been 3 years ago the speed would be great but I'm comparing it to my galaxy s4 and iPhone 5 side by side and the scrolling on some web pages and apps is frustratingly slow. I was wondering if anyone is seeing the same kind of performance?
No, my phone is flying. No lags whatsoever. I would try a master reset and see if that helps.

Since your coming from anexus 4, which was my favorite android phone besides the camera. How are you doing with the size difference? I have larger than average size hands and I have to bounce the phone around in my hand to reach things I need to press at the top of the screen. Never had that problem with the nexus or my gs4.
I'm coming from a N4 too (I'll get the phone the G2 this week) I'll miss vanilla, but the battery life, camera, and larger screen will MORE than make up for that with the G2.
do me a favor and try youtube, asphalt 8, riptide gp, etc etc. (heavy 3d games) everything is choppy for me but the choppiness is rhythmic for some odd reason
First off, what launcher are you using? I think alot of people that get lagged that are caused by a poorly written app, and assume its the phones fault. Only good way to tell will be factory reset, and run it that way a bit. All good then add ur apps back one at a time, testing it between apps, and that will pinpoint which app is the issue...
I've been getting some random gitter/lag with the ui as well, just tested in antutu got 30,000 then a second time got 26,000. Isn't the g2 supposed to get like 35k?
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk 4
Just so I could make a statement based on fact I downloaded Riptide GP 2 to see if I got any lag or stuttering, I played 2 races with no lag or slowdown. Then I went into the graphic settings but everything was already maxed out by default, I ended up playing for 20 more minutes and its a very fun game lol. So yep it just went thru the game like butter the way you would expect it to..
Note 4 is a great phone but coming from M8 and sense seems that the Note 4 is very laggy.
Not sure if it is 805 chipset cannot handle the resolution just like G3 801 chipset couldn't handle it, but Note 4 is very laggy. Might be the bloware withing touchwiz, but loading time is slow and alot of native app (app store, facebook etc) have a hard time loading and smooth scrooling.
Yes i do have the latest update and hoping this is only software related which can be fix with an update.
This lag reporting is wierd. I've only rooted, have installed a ton of crap, froze nothing and I've had 0 lag yet.
Wonder why some are getting it

It really sucks that so many people are reporting lag, very unfortunate. I myself haven't experienced any but a lot of users are.
I'm just waiting for an AOSP rom. That should have absolutely no lag, especially with this processor.

I went from the M8 to the S5 and never experienced any lag, I wonder why the NOTE 4 would produce lag. Try factory resetting?
Absolutely zero lag. Even a before the update. But then again I don't consider an app taking 2 10ths of a second to open "lag". Lag to me is windows 98 on a 86 computer.
if you think that your phone is "laggy", then try nova launcher instead of the stock touchwiz..if its still "laggy" something is wrong with your phone, or your expectations are too high
I had lag too and downloaded seeder from playstore lag is gone for me

I have the LG G3 and the Note 4. The LG G3 isn't that bad, but the Note 4 is perfectly smooth. About the only thing that will lag on LG G3 is my SwiftKey. Not an issue at all on the Note 4.
With the Note 4 just being released, a lot of lag the Note 4 is being blamed for could possibly be attributed to the initial setups and synchronizing going on in the background. The phone is actually very fast.
I haven't seen any lag other then when going to recent apps, which would lag on the g3.

Change the animtion duration in developers options will boost things a little . Just depend the lag you are descibing ? I expected TW to have a little lag but its nothing that rooting and and debloating a bit cant fix .
Can someone try Google Now Launcher and see how that feels on the device? Anyone also able to compare their experience to a Nexus 5? I have the G3 and it is not nearly as smooth. Lag is not very prevalent, but it's there and noticeable for me... nothing like the Nexus 5.

Yes touchwiz is laggy in my end compare to M8 buttersmooth sense. I'm using nova which is smooth. STILL opening application and load time M8 is FASTER as of now, a lot of application stutter and lag when scrolling. If you are coming from a note 3 or LG G3 might not notice a difference, but if you are coming from a M8 or even a nexus 5 you will see and differences.
Google now Is perfect for me and my launcher of choice is Next.
I have next on max Settings and still smooth

The only thing that has lagged for me is Swype! I may have to change to something else, I'm fed up with it! Everything else is smooth as butter. Unrooted as of yet.
Smooth as butter for me....let the initial setup do its job and check your sync settings. ..also disable auto update in playstore.....maybe that's why some have seen pseudo lag.
My Note 4 is also buttery Smooth
My n4 is as well.

Just got my new Moto X and I love it so far. The camera is great, screen is beautiful, It's decently fast. Only issue is that it drops frames like crazy. Not that it slows down the phone, but I always see stutters. The Play Store is really bad, swiping between pages and opening app descriptions always makes the phone stutter. Tinder is the worst though, feels like it runs at 15 fps. Also it feels like I have to push so much more to scroll, than I did on my M8. On the M8 a flick would scroll down the list, here my finger has to travel more, though this could merely be due to the increase in screen size I guess? I don't know, just overall the device feels more choppy than my M8.
Anyone else having these issues?
same here. Phone is quite laggy overall. Though I rooted it and have xposed installed. not sure if that could cause the stutters.

Nope, I'm stock for now and have stutters all the time. Kinda sad that it's slower I think than my M8 on GPE rom.
May be a certain app you all have in common? I don't have this issue, except on some large web pages, which happened on my M8, but even more.
You can go into settings-->developer options-->profile GPU rendering, then choose the "on screen as bars" option. Then go about using the phone, and see how much those little vertical lines get above the horizontal one. It will happen occasionally, but it should be about 95% below the line.
Hi,
On my Exynos s10+ when browsing animations feels sometimes laggy also switching between tabs is sometimes stuttering and not fluid like the Samsung browser.
These problems I don't have with my previous phone with a Snapdragon 845.
Animation speed is already on 0.5
Is this common? It feels I got downgraded 4 years ago in terms of speed.
Mine is blazing fast. Maybe you have a power saver on which slows down the cpu?
Also no stuttering on mine, maybe clear cache...
Chrome is definitely not as smooth as Samsung browser.
On my old Pocophone F1 the Chrome browser feels a lot faster.
Also when switching between tabs the animation never slows down or any of that kind of stuttering.
Go to setting - accessibilitty - video enhancement - remove animation
Samsung's browser is also based on Chromium, it's superior in 3D rendering but inferior in everything else important for actual browsing, you need to check what settings are slowing you down because it's definitely not Chrome.
I don't know through any benchmark if Chrome is faster than Samsung Internet and I do not use any phone than Samsung at this moment but Samsung Internet is smoother on Samsung phones. I have been using it for at least 2 years at a stretch and almost forgot that Chrome exists on my phone.

So should I disable Samsung internet browser? The reason I'm asking is that I'm still getting only good screen on time not amazing. I got 6 hours yesterday but am not nearing 7 or 8 that many are getting. I've followed your guide and have applied most settings. For adaptive power saving I had it on for the last week and it does not seem to be helping. Then I had it off yesterday until it was at 20 percent and the screen on time seemed a little better.

Well mate iv got the sd 855 version of the s10 plus and my annimations laggy to and chrome as well
No lag whatsoever. I use Firefox and Kiwi (chromium). Although, I haven't seen lag since the SD808 days. Otherwise everything is snappy on this phone.
I had this exact same problem with chrome, i even took my phone to a Samsung service centre and they couldn't figure it out..... But I did!!
I did a factory reset and manually installed all new apps one by one, checking chrome after each install. Phone was fine until I updated the chrome app and back came the stuttering. So disabled the app which took it back to the factory version and not allowed it to update. Works great now, i hope this works for you too.!
