Touch Latency

Hi guys, I was thinking of getting a Oneplus 2, but touch latency and display response is very important to me so I wanted to see what you guys think

Go for it, OnePlus 2 is a good phone apart from the heating issue. Touch latency can be fixed by flashing Custom ROMs or AOSP.. It's pretty fast. Try with your friends' device some time and check it out yourself.

Heating issue? You must have a defective unit, playing one hour real racing 3 and dead trigger 2 on leaked hydrogen marshmallow and the phones stays warm, not even hot.
And I modify thermal file so it doesn't throttle. It doesn't shutdown cores and throttle starts at 57° (quiet_term sensor) and the max temp in an hour of heavy gaming was 44°. So... Heating issue?..

I truly don't find delay. I agree with you brother.
But I have had heating issue when I played Gangstar Vegas and Brothers in Arms 3.. Other than that.. It's super cool.

A little off topic. Good news if you play games. I don't know if its marshmallow (I'm using h2os leak) optimizing apps or real racing update, but it tends to use big cores instead of little, this means better performance and less heat. My max was CPU 61° and 44° quiet_term after 30m. This is really good!, my nexus 5 gets way hotter. I will try another games later to see if its marshmallow or it was rr3 update.

If you enable developer options and select show touches. Just moving the finger fast, how much does the little white circle trail behind by?

way slower than my n5 or for example an Ipad air 2 which has like 9ms touch latency.. (apple pls stop teasing me with this)
So you understand better. Its not super bad, but definitely noticeable enough to the point where it will annoy you if you think about it! (stuff just doesnt stick to your finger. its always behind. After a while you just dont notice it anymore.
update: I also love how that dude said. "lesser than half a second".... thats WAY to much. Or would you play computer games with 450ms ping?
Because one second is 1000ms....

Coming from an HTC M9 to the Oneplus 2, the delay has consistently been driving me crazy. I hope M alleviates this, since I suspect it's related to Oxygen OS. I have reported it to Helen directly and she said they would look into it.
It's especially noticeable when typing on the keyboard.
Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk

I finally got the oneplus 2, touch latency is quite a bit worse than what im used to but still smooth and fast. Im interested as well to changes m would bring but it feels like the latency is a hardware limitation

The delay at opening apps is launcher related. I don't know if that's the delay you're talking about.

No. I don't think it's hardware related at least for my oneplus 2.
I was using galaxy s6 before and lost it, bought oneplus 2 afterwards and my first expression was what a horrible device it is.
Slow touches slow response, awkward DPI.
Rooted it and installed custom rom based on oxygen OS and set DPI to 400 and all animation to .75, since then I feel it's fast and snappy.
Try this I hope your touch latency issues wll be solved.

Only both cameras are not-too-good in hardware.
But you should check the display. It's very good

I bought this phone 3 days ago. My old phone was Android one 2nd generation (snapdragon 410). I didn't tested any custom ROMs yet. But I know people who flashed cm14 and they said it lags a lot because cm14 is on very early alpha stages. I didn't asked anyone about cm13.
But stock rom is not lagging. It's flawless.
I got these issues since I got my phone:
1. Screen flashes after reboot for 2 minutes (I don't know why but they're gone now)
2. When I change camera rear to front it stucks on Snapchat. Don't use double tap. Use camera change button. It works.
3. Some people don't experience this issue but notification light is only working when it's charging. I don't see any blinks when notification comes up.
4. Google camera is crap. Use manual camera. It's on play store.

It's more overheating than my old Android one phone. But it's definitely less heating than my very old sgs2. It's not uncomfortable. It's meh-normal.
I get 6 hours screen on time on a day.

It has almost same specs. And it's better for gaming than this.

Battery life is average... One day for me...
And i don't have overheathing at all...
Phone works fine, no lags, no any problem (android nougat is installed)

GM5 plus
Hi man,
I'm very happy with the device. I have had little to no lag since the nougat 7.0 update. The processor has little difficulty managing the usual task on a smartphone. Perhaps it's a little different for user that actually play graphic intense games. Battery heating isn't a problem but I do find the battery a bit small for the device (I have to load it at least half an hour to get me through a day of intense use.

Hi
I finally bought this phone.
The camera is kinda bad, colors are good but they lack sharpness and details. I had a Zenfone 5 that took way sharper images than this phone.
Battery life is ok. I get 4-5 hours screen-on-time.
Some problems i have with the device : the phone makes a buzzing sound that comes from the back when 4G/GPS is activated, also when i go to Play Store and then Settings and then scroll down i can see "Device certification : Uncertified". Anyone else getting this?

nice phone without battery

Nice overall performance. Cameras are both the same, and perform good. Colors are a bit oversaturated in general, that's not a camera problem. Gets a little hot while managing heavy applications, but nothing to worry about. Battery has improved, it's better than it's predecessors, but still not as good as it should be. Fast charging is quite interesting, but the charger included is only 2.4A, not 3.0 as it supports. In my opinion, 8.5/10. I have this phone from 2 months now.

I have GM5 Plus for 6 months now. Generally, the phone is ok for the price. It does not lag but becomes hot while playing. I think because of the heat issue screen now has some spots on the screen while looking on the white background, other times its not visible. Cameras are normal. Battery life is not super but is ok. Battery life is somehow balanced with super fast charging for me. Overall, I think for the budget phone its very good smartphone.

Very bad device I don't recommend

Not Impressed...

From the 2 hours so far with my S8+ (Had to get it for temp until my UK variant comes in).
I am using the ATT variant and am hoping my Exynos version will not lag as bad as this damn thing. My Axon 7 with stock rom just rooted ran circles around this thing.
Pull the notification menu down = dropped frames
Scroll apps drawer = dropped frames
Animation and Transition effects at 1x = Choppy dropped frames
Everyone keeps saying it's a myth that Samsung's software is not bloated and slow anymore like TW days but I am not impressed this far.
I'm torn because this phone is really beautiful hardware with just slow software.
*Edit* looks like this almost non existent on the Exynos variant so I'm pleased now.

You must be very unlucky because I have zero lag. Been using it for over a week and have not experienced any lag in any of the 130+ apps i've installed.
You might have some faulty version of the phone.

The fact it's been present on Best Buy display models, T-Mobiles display and this phone I doubt that. It seems to happen more when running in WQHD for what it's worth. I have disabled a **** ton of bloat with package disabler and it's still not as smooth as the Axon 7 was not my 6s+.

The phone is not a *lag fest* it just drops frames and it's noticeable to the naked eye. For instance pull the notifications menu down to your quick shortcuts and collapse the entire menu back to the home screen, you can notice frame drops for that 1 sec function. It's not as fluid as the expansion itself.
Screen transitions such as the fade out to home I see it ever so slightly. It's not laggy as in the cpu/ram is over worked it's just a bloated launcher and possibly ****ty/suboptimal cpu/gpu scheduler.
The only reason I notice this specifically as it's what originally drove me from Samsung years ago. Well that and the locked bootloaders.
We shall see if it's as noticeable with the Exynos variant when it ships out this week.

Lag? My rippin lightening fast! Had all the other tech guys at my job also blown away with its speed and fluidity. Blows away Apple too.

I've been pulling down notification all day because messages are coming in and don't see frame drops....do I need glasses?...im trying to replicate your problem but I cant....

The only lag I see is when exiting apps , The animation pauses for a split 2nd and then goes away . I think it's a touch wiz launcher thing because when I use Nova launcher I get no lag at all
One thing I wish touch wiz would stop doing when opening a folder on your home page don't take up the entire screen To access the apps inside the folder .

Fastest phone I've had, no lag here or anything like that here

Did you even check the video posted....clearly not.

Not as fast/snappy as I was expecting ?... Any one else agree? TMO 950U

Hi guys, so I pre-order the S8 and am very happy with the design of the phone but performance has left much to be desired. It just doesn't feel as snappy as lets say my OP3. Granted, OP3 has 6gb of ram but still, the S8 considerably feels sluggish. Chrome browser stutters all the time, even with only a few tabs open for example.
I have tried decreasing the animation/transition speed under devl options (which I know is subjective) but still the same...
Anyone else in the same boat? Anything to remedy this? I am really hoping for Root to be available.
I guess I'm just venting a little lol.

Yeah, I have the exynos version and it feels slow... Making all the animations 0.5x kinda helps but I'm still disappointed.

Let the phone get "broken in". Use it for a few days, things get a lot snappier after the system learns your usage patterns. I'm also getting better and better battery life (first day I barely had 1.5hrs SOT with my regular usage, a week later I was getting 4-5hrs easily, even though my usage pattern did not change).
However wiping the phone will reset this. I experienced this a few times in the past 3 weeks I had the phone.

Totally incorrect, this is the fastest smoothest Android I've ever used. I've been in the iPhone camp since the 6s and had the 7 as well. We all know how fast and smooth the new iPhones are, well this phone is as fast and smooth. I've had it running 7 days straight while opening and running dozens of apps, this is a beast. No lag and smooth af scrolling and navigation. Snapdragon here
To sum it up, this device is a pleasure to use. And no fkin way will I use a stock Android. The Galaxy user experience adds so much added value to the phone.

Me too and I've had three. A AT&T S-835 version and two UK Exynos versions. One of the Exynos had a pink screen and got returned. In the context of this thread I'm assuming "fast" means page opens, scrolling, and transitions. All three of my phones performed impressively in those areas. To the point as a long time Android user it makes you go "wow."
There are a bunch of threads here where people are complaining about a variety of performance issues. 99% of the time those problems are user induced. We all love Android's flexibility but it means no two phones are alike. Based on age, quality, and design of the apps people use one or two "bad" apps can create issues across your phone. Then there's the "freezing" crowd who take out an app that another app that's still alive is dependent on and they have issues. Look at the Bixby remapper and the performance problems it created. One thing I've noticed on my Exynos phones is that the Samsung Device Maintenance app does a terrific job of proactively managing power hungry apps and those that remain alive unnecessarily in the background.
As for 4GB vs. 6GB of RAM that doesn't really fly unless you always and intentionally keep a slew of apps running in the background. Every time I've checked I've had plenty of free RAM available and no app I've gone back to in recent apps hasn't been alive when I've needed it. If there's a single app that itself needs more than 4GB of RAM than it's a developer fail because the average Android phone has far less than 4GB of installed RAM.

New firmware update released today/yesterday.

Bluetooth and app installs are the two things that show performance issues best. When I connected to my truck's Bluetooth, every phone before it took around 20 seconds to connect, but the S8 connected immediately.
App installs are also seemingly immediate as well. I never get any lag or stuttering when installing apps, even while playing games.
That's my benchmark for how fast a phone is. Oh, and cold booting is 30 seconds, S7e on U FW is 38 seconds.

Yeah definetly noticed this too. I still blame Samsung's touchwiz. The S8 took a huge hit last night when I tried video calling on Whatsapp and send a few texts and the same time and damn the phone heated up and lagged hard on me. Hoping the update containing daydream will fix a few of these issues and give us that damn button remapping back.

Smart switch restore and the shortcutter app made my phone sluggish. Factory reset and avoid both made my phone silky smooth with over 100 apps installed.

LAG! :'(

Just got my OP6T yesterday and I'm getting lots of lag. Mostly scrolling lag when I'm scrolling slow through the app drawer, play store, etc. (fast scrolling is always smooth) I've also experienced lag in general while using the launcher and just doing normal functions. This is my first OnePlus device and I've always heard they are super smooth with no lag and so far this has not been the case for me.
Is my device defective? Is there some known issue I can fix? I don't want to have to return it but I don't want a laggy phone either.
(UPDATE) The cause for the lag seems to be gesture navigation and also immersive mode via a third party app (immersive mode is not a feature within the device but can be accessed by apps even without root). I've been using gesture navigation since I bought the phone and have had scrolling lag the whole time. I switched to the traditional 3 button nav last night and the lag was gone. Another user reported they are having terrible lag issues while using immersive mode but once they disable it the lag is completely gone.

Did you install any apps yet? Note most 3rd party apps are not fully well versed on Android 9.

Try updating to 9.0.5 and see if the problem persist. When I received the phone, I turned animation scale off. You can try that and see if you still notice lag.

You may have a defective one. Mine is extremely smooth. Dare I say it might be the smoothest Android experience I've ever had.

Yes, I've installed my normal apps which is only like 30. I'm not a big app user so don't have tons and all those I use have worked good on pie for some time. I also have a Pixel 2XL and have been on Pie since the second beta last spring.

I updated to 9.0.5 as soon as I got the phone yesterday. I don't want to turn off animations because they are pretty ;'(

I also have a Pixel 2XL and didn't notice the lags I'm getting on the OP6T. I'm currently troubleshooting to see if I can find a solution.

I have not experienced one time lag as I can remember last days. I updated to latest firmware straight away

I'm on 9.0.4 - not done anything at all with it, and it's as fast as anything. If it's like that out of the box then it sounds like you've got a defective device.

I'm also getting stuttery scrolling on most apps. Came from Pixel 2xl and it was smoother than this. Should I be concerned I have a faulty device? My first one plus phone as well. It's not bad enough to bail on device but is definitely noticable and annoying.

Omg what's goin on in here, i came straight from pixel 2 xl and 6t feeeeels far more smooth than pixel, its blazing fast,

Who is your carrier? Maybe it's something specific to them?

Don't get me wrong. This thing is way faster than the p2xl. Its just when I'm scrolling slowly reading on different apps, it misses here and there. Stuttery scrolling. It seems a little better after the update. I was scrolling on Zedge and it was like it was 10 fps..

I installed ElementalX kernel and so far it seems to have fixed the stutter while scrolling. I'm paying close attention and if it keeps up I'll be returning it for another device. The only reason I'm stressing it so much is one of the main reasons I bought it is because for years the OnePlus devices have been praised for being super smooth, fast, with no UI lag. Lag, frame drops, stutter, and UI faults of any sort bother me greatly. My Pixel2XL has had a bit of lag here and there but overall it's been smooth and pleasant to use so I can't handle anything less.

Don't get me wrong. This thing is way faster than the p2xl. Its just when I'm scrolling slowly reading on different apps, it misses here and there. Stuttery scrolling.

This is exactly the issue I've experienced. It's only during slow scrolling. I've also had lag in other areas like opening folders and closing apps but it's mostly been while scrolling -- but like I said so far the ElementalX kernel seems to have fixed it.

Just flashed elemental kernal. Will test for a bit and post back.
Did you change any of the settings or all defaults?

I changed all the cpu cores to their max frequency but left the governors default. That is it. Battery life seems the same.
I will say also that I noticed within EX Kernel Manager that the CPU cores were running very low frequencies by default which makes me wonder if for some reason my device had drastically underclocked cores. The max frequency I was seeing on any cores was 1.7GHz.

Yea, I think that's the problem since the cpu is designed to go to 2.8GHz on the main cores. For whatever reason mine were never going above 1.7. I'm hoping some custom ROMs and kernels will resolve this issue.
