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.

This phone is blazing fast, at least compared to my old Z1C. Everything launches almost instantly, and because the screen is 720p, graphically intensive tasks also run consistently at 60fps.
Haven't experienced any hiccups or stutter during my first week of use.

Very fast, very smooth, internal storage is also very fast (all compared to my Z3c and Moto X Force)

I think it is pretty fast. Prior to this phone I had a Pixel, which I thought was already quite fast. Noticeably, I find the camera to be much better at focusing and snapping quick shots. The dedicated shutter button has spoiled me for all future phones. Apps load up quickly and I think the limiting factor there is internet connection speed. I'm also very impressed with the speed of the fingerprint sensor. Sometimes I just want to check my lock screen for a glance at a message and end up unlocking to the home screen. Perhaps it is too quick.

Really fast. Il coming from HTC 10 and I can tell you the xz1 compact is faster than my "old" HTC....
Mémoire, CPU, wifi, 4g, everything is going faster

It's blazing fast for me. Noticeably better than my previous phone, the GS7.
It may even be as quick and responsive as the first pixel phone.
I've experienced a few hiccups here and there, but it's possible that it's because I have auto-update play store apps on.

This phone is fast. Everything seems instantaneous. Apps that often suffer lag like Google Play Music and Maps are smooth as butter. This thing does not break a sweat and the resolution gives it a huge advantage.

I get constant freezing and very inconsistent performance for example in games sometimes it feels like 60fps and others more like 15fps I know the hardware is good enough but either I have a dodgy phone or there is an issue with the software. It has been like this since day one. Benchmarks are great though
...

It's very fast and reliable.
3 issues though:
1. fingerprint sensor went crazy and hardly recognizing myself. I have slightly sweaty hands, but still, it is worse than when I bought it. The percentage of succeeded readings is pretty small. At some point I deleted the fingerprints and registered them again(hoping will be better). Maybe than it got even worse.
2. Wi-Fi speed is pretty slow. I compared it to my old z3C and most of the times, z3 won... And even worse, the ratings were not so good overall. Somehow, I can "feel" that.
But it's not as bad as it sounds.
3. Phone idle consumes more than twice the battery consumed by "screen on". Sad, but I still get over 4h of SOD. Maybe Android Pie will be better here.
All of the issues are "fine" to live with. And there still is no better option for a compact device.

I am not having any of the problems cited in the last two posts. Phone works great, I am still on Oreo right now. Bought it used 2 months ago.
Sent from my XZ1 Compact using XDA Labs

Would you say that the Google Pixel 3 XL is "fast" in day-to-day use? A higher rating indicates that you think the Google Pixel 3 XL exhibits fantastic performance. Like, is it as fast as your tears when you watch The Titanic?

Yes! Compared to the Samsung S9, the Google Pixel 3 XL gives the impression that it is faster. I think this is because the native Android system used by Google Pixel 3 XL! At the same time, I played my friend's iPhone x before, but I feel that iphone x is faster. Recently I was thinking about whether I should buy an iPhone xs max.

pixel 3 xl isnt out yet...

Nvmd

Same here. Thought about the max but the limitations of iPhones are brutal. Eitherway , handsdown apple destroys Google in optimizations.

Fast enough in real life?
Of course, it´s a 845 Chip, blazing fast though

So I'm already noticing choppy animations sometimes when opening apps. This is really not good and unacceptable.

since /data uses F2FS
im curious to know if anyone has formatted it to EXT4 and observed a difference?
i remember using F2FS on the oneplus phones caused slowdowns and latency issues.

These are the way kennel deals with EAS
We need to wait for custom kernels

I reduced animation speed to 0,5

The animations were getting choppy, everytime I unlock the phone. I sent it back to Google for a replacement. If this issue presists, I'm just gonna return the phone.

Been using mine since day one, and it's kind of funny to me. I thought lately it was slowing down, but it's only because I'm used to it now. I played around with my Moto E4 Plus that I came from, and wow, that thing was a snail. I thought that phone was fast when I got it, and thought it was on par with much more expensive phones all the way up until I got the 3XL, but once I tried it after using the 3XL, it was night and day. I then went back to the 3XL, and boom, it was like the first day I turned it on. Blazing fast, and not one stutter or jank. It's amazing how using it 12 hours a day make you get used to the speed and smoothness. Try your old phone, and then come back. You won't take it for granted anymore like I did.

Delete.

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.

Yeah..as of new Samsung a50 is fast....but it depends on day to day use...I heard that Samsung products lags after sometime...I will give my feedback after 1month of use

using since a month, no lag no issues except the fingerprint

Sometimes fingerprint works good...but othertimes it is just annoying

For me:
-opening Apps list in settings - laggy
-dialing - laggy

Sometimes phone is bit laggy..
Opening apps takes time...
Any tips??

Got no problems with its speed. I'm impressed by how this device delivers your day-to-day ops.

Occasionally lagging, but nothing major. I would say we need to wait for update (April security patches),in which Samsung states that fingerprint issues will be solved.
Currently using both A50 and A8, and can confirm that the A8 is smoother and more "premium " feel...

The device come with really a lot of Samsung apps preinstalled and some bloatware, that most of people just don't need, so the a50 model with 4G ram can be not enough.
but after adb debloat, everything is just fast and smooth, even with 4 G ram

Agree with you. A50 is really a good phone and no issues whatsoever.

Well this one is not the best, but it use different sensor than S10. I just don't use it (except banking app etc.). Funny thing is that with dry fingers it's unresponsive, but if you slightly lick your fingers it works without any issues. On my S10 is no problem at all.

guys does the phone heat up specially while using chrome? I sold my new S8 because it got super hot with just 5 minutes of chrome or youtube

Chrome is garbage anyways, use another Chromium fork or Firefox.

Day to day used, it good im satified, but in playing games when it comes to smoothness, it failed like in mobile legends that mine have no high frame rate option, in pubg mobile lite, good but not as smooth in old oppo a3.
