I have my P20 pro since yesterday... These reviews on the internet are a joke!!!! This phone is one of the baddest phone I ever had. And I had a lot of phones!
Every damn animations are sluggish, lags and sometimes even freeze! My galaxy S7 was performing way better... And I hate Samsung... I reset the device more than three times. Since the first screen of setup when choosing language the animation seems to be at 24 fps... What a joke! Probably going back to a pixel 2 xl. The overall speed, opening and switching between apps is great but damn these animations... No more chinese rubbish!

Here is a video made just now... I told you! A JOKE!

Lol just you... i have this Phone and no lag, no freeze, all run perfect.

Ditto

Ok guys, record your screens and show us how smooth your P20 PRO are!?!?

Because without your approval, our lives will be incomplete
Relax dude. My phone is perfectly smooth and this is me coming from a pixel 2. If you don't like it, return it.

But WTF... I'm just saying that this phone has a lot of stutter in its animations. I'll go check on another P20 pro in a shop to see if the problem is only on mine. I had a pixel 2 xl too and the overall impression of smoothness was way better. It will be more constructive to record other videos to prove your affirmation... But anyway...

Ah and it seems that the more impacted apps are google apps.

I usually just lurk in these threads, but I also have this problem.
Overall phone speed is fine, but there are a few things that just seem to be REALLY slow.
Scrolling speed in apps is mostly fine, but system animations seem to stutter. Switching between apps, going back to Homescreen, etc.
Doesn't sound like much, but it really diminishes the experience

Try switching animations and transitions to 0.5x from developer menu?
That's the only change I've made

Yeah, first thing I did. I usually do that on all my phones. Obviously the animations are faster now, but they aren't smoother.

I've not had the same issues as you yet (touches wood) but if you unlock developer options you can change the animation speed from x1 to .05 or lower. I have mine set to x0.5 which makes menu transitions feel snappier

You're a day one adopter. Do you expect there to be no firmware revisions?

Got the P20 pro since friday...luv it! no lags, no freeze, no stuttering!
Fast as predicted!

people coming from pixel 2 or pixel 2 xl, hell even from first generation pixel please dont compare any other android to them when it come to smoothness, they are even smoother than an iPhone !!!
i had the same issue with Mate 10, i made sure that i stopped most of the background apps (go to battery then launch then disable all except what u need like social media and emails) and i didnt have a problem since, although its a QHD screen with only 4gb of RAM
and trust me, these freakishly huawei devices just gets better and faster with time even before the AI era , it is just how EMUI works
so yeah, if u want the camera, the phenomenal battery life infrared and the TV thing then keep it, otherwise seriously the Pixel 2 is just better in every single way

When we have both devices side by side you can't ask us not compare and I'm finding very little difference.
This is my first pixel device and I don't see what all the fuss was about, it has stutters too and the battery life yoyos after every update.
For me so far this device is just as responsive however I'm not saying other people aren't experiencing issues, videos have been posted and I can clearly see it but for me it's just as fast and no google maps problems like I've seen others have (still not denying this, there's kinks out there)
This is release software, give them time to throw out updates.
You for example also say the pixel is the smoothest phone out there but I had PLENTY of hiccups with mine and no amount of updates or flashing fixed it, infact it just got worse and i had to go through 2 units with different issues, this was to replace the latest unit where the proximity sensor is now busted and the phone doesn't wake up after a call without a reboot.
Every time you replace the unit you risk getting one with bad blue tint and it's just not worth all the effort, for me this is an upgrade in every way but screen resolution which is definitely not a deal breaker.

In my experience the p20 pro is very responsive, but the scrolling does stutter quite a bit. Perhaps due to weak GPU and worse software optimisation?

I have a feeling that there are already different versions of the firmware available or preinstalled, thats why some ppl have hiccups and some dont. I know someone from UK who has the stuttering in Google Maps. But one in Germany who doesn't. Just wait a few days, a first update will come soon.

I've both the P20 Pro and the Pixel 2XL and yes the stock experience is smoother on the Pixel, I've not attempted to improve the P20 yet though. But never expected it to be as smooth anyway.

It's a typical Samsung phone. In other words, not the best. You'll see some frame drops and stuttering on certain apps. Compared to a Pixel phone, it's very choppy. Compared to other phones, especially Samsung, it's maybe a little better than usual.
I'm on my second day of use and I've found the fluidity of the interface to be smooth and without any lag. YMMV.
Ironically the only jumpy, stuttery scrolling I've encountered on this phone is with the official XDA app! Uninstalled and use Samsung browser and dark theme. Slicker than a buttered Otter.
I get a small stutter jumping from home screen into the app menus, had it from the minute it was unboxed. Annoying really!
My S8 had pretty choppy scrolling, especially when scrolling slowly (keeping finger on the screen). However, my Note 8 is buttery smooth in every app so far!

I will say this: on performance mode, this is significantly minimized. I'm actually impressed!
I've set all animations at .5 and haven't seen any stutter or lag at all. I really don't remember any before I changed the settings. It's just an automatic thing I do with Samsung phones. I am also on high performance mode.

My animations are on 0.5 as well, and in performance mode it is almost flawless. That's the key I've realized. Non-performance mode was noticeably worse for me (which is why all the store models looked choppy to me - they were incapable of going into performance mode).
Besides slightly raising brightness and setting the resolution all the way up what else does performance mode do?

Avoids throttling the CPU I think.
Animations set at 0.5.
Smooth scrolls in browsers and tumblr twitter
i have set the animations to 0.5 but Twitter still lags badly.. bit fustrating tbh compared to the iphone twitter app.. i don't understand whys look and perform so much better on iphones
I haven't noticed any lag scrolling since I got it. I just turned Animations off today, I didn't realize you could do that in the Dev options now. TBH I don't like animations just to have animations, I turn them off all my PCs too. If I run into any issues with them off, I"ll try .5
For those who feel choppy, I kindly ask you to disable any services in the accessibility and try again. I have not experienced any stutter except for occasion stutter when I scroll in 'running service' in 'developer option'.
Is exynos throttled more than Snapdragon versions? I've used both now and notice slight lags in exynos (balanced mode)
Running processes are fine, but Chrome (e.g. this page), Twitter etc. are quite choppy. I'm running high performance mode, think it helped a little but not enough. Hope it's something they'll be able to fix with an update

Amazing butter smooth scrolling, feels very zippy
we really need to lower the age of consent by a few years
I replied to anther thread that seems to be covering the same territory. So far the phone is super choppy in some places. Mostly web browsing with Chrome. But the LG home launcher also labs really badly. I wouldn't care so much if it wasn't for knock on. Anyone else having issues? I've messed with all the settings I could think of. Next step is factory reset but I'm trying to avoid that.

Actually, had a thought. I'm using a CPU monitoring app and it seems that cores 5-8 aren't being used much. Maybe it's a chip issue? Or maybe something's wrong with the kernel? I'm mostly a dummy when it comes to this stuff so forgive my wild speculation.

Are you by chance using any auto fill apps? I was using Lastpass auto fill and it caused lots of choppy scrolling. After disabling it everything was very smooth.

Good suggestion.
That was a great suggestion! Turns out it wasn't Last Pass but some type of Norton web security thing in Accessibility Services that was the issue. Turning that off seems to have fixed the problem

Mostly Butter but...
I have some strange bounce back happening when I scroll, mostly in Instagram. The rest of the time it's smooth, but not quite as smooth as the Note 8, which I owned for a few weeks. By and large it is as quick as the Note was...
Settings/Developer Options/tick on "Force GPU Rendering" should make the beast smoother faster. if root available try L Speed/Entropy/fstrim apps found on Play Store! If LG G6 gets Android 7.1.2 , the performance should improve smoother over Android 7.0 just like the LG V30 is incredibly smooth and fast due to SD 835. Android Oreo 8.0 should have faster boot times on powering up. LG flagships gets Oreo by the end of this year (November or December)
It's just garbage for scrolling. I couldn't believe that my Galaxy S8 with MORE crap installed actually scrolled smoother on Instagram, Sync Pro, etc.
I always turn off animations in developers settings. Seems really smooth for me so far.
This phone is just as smooth as the Note 8 I had before it. Buttery smooth. I don't use Instagram, but all the apps I use including Chrome, have very smooth scrolling. I'm completely satisfied with this phone.
Edit...3 days of using this phone and I'm starting to see the lag and stutter that people are reporting.

Its already been shown you have no credibility and just sprouting bs. This phone is, to steal that somewhat overused term, buttery smooth.
I think you're most likely to see the symptoms if you're used to an iPhone 7 Plus (3 GB RAM) and gone to a V30.
In my experience, it is possible to load up the V30's memory in a way that causes Chrome or Firefox to appear jittery when compared to Safari on the 7 Plus, loaded up heavily in basically the same way.
I notice it but it has not been a particular problem for me. Until I saw this thread, to be honest, I thought it was a Google Android issue v. an Apple iOS method of memory utilization.

Considering I've got an iPhone 7 Plus and iOS 11.1 (public beta) hasn't fixed the refresh issue, I can say that the V30 has been a wonderful experience. Multitasking on my iPhone is nearly impossible with refreshes on as little as two apps open. It's frustrating.
I've been using Samsung browser beta. Chrome was not as fluid. Since the switch I haven't had any scrolling delay.

I also don't want you to believe that I intended to convey that the V30's little jittering is anything that would keep me from using the device. It's a very minor issue.
To be honest, the V30 seems to be a keeper. I'm rushing headlong toward the deadline for buyer's remorse, and I'm still using it!

It's weird. I guess every device and its user are going to vary. My biggest issue with the 7 Plus is app refreshes and call/data quality being horrible. Getting one bar in my apartment on iPhone compared with full bars with V30, crazy!
On keyboards, I use Swype on iPhone so for me it was an easy transition. Before iPhone allowed third party keyboards, I was jailbroken. I love trace keyboards.

Have a look at the swiftkey keyboard i think it's way more convenient than LGs own and you can customise its design as well, it's very quick and accurate on the predictions and you can use it simultaneously with several languages!

Device is incredibly smooth. It seems like 60 fps in nearly all applications I've went through so far.
The only good phones I've ever used before this have been U11, View10 and that's it.
Scrolling is head and shoulders above them.

Sometimes scrolling is laggy, sometimes it stutters, sometimes it moves too fast when i scrolled it slowly.

Yup. The problem is, not everyone can see that. For instance, I said in an article that the Play Store (one example) is jittery/stuttery when scrolling up/down in pretty much every 'corner of the app. People thought I was trolling. And my eyes perceive those stutters as relatively obvious ones. I don't understand how people can't see that. Then there's Twitter. If people can't see that Twitter stutters like crazy, then I don't know what else to say. I don't think the OP6 is smoother than the Pixel 2XL, even though that one's a generation behind. Imagine how good the Pixel 3 is gonna be.

Yeah. Most people probably don't notice it, but my eyes are very sensitive to it. I game on a 165 Hz G-sync monitor and I still notice microstutter at high frame rates lol. I wonder how havoc os or lineage os is? Maybe it's just the OS and not the device causing it.

Of course the device is not the cause. It's the software that facilitates the appearance of these jitters/stutters. It's all about optimization.
I only got one issue with stuttering. That was on day one, when camera application stuttered and crashed. After that everything went fine. That probably because I had two camera apps. One of device and one installed from Play Store.

Same here with the 165hz gsync and very sensitive eyes.. Thus far I haven't noticed any stutters on the device yet been using Instagram, telegram and chrome but nothing so far on latest update.
If I compare my s7 edge that was just a nightmare of stutters.
Yup I get stuttering here, similar to my 3 back in the day. I wonder if tweaking the cpu governor has the same effects as it did on my 3. There is no "conservative" selection anymore.
O notice in some apps now. Not in chrome or Samsung browser (use it for better battery for some reason..)
But apps like Instagram (when loading pictures)
And also play store (most likely loading something too)
I'm thinking it's more about poorly designed apps rather that the device itself.
It seems that scrolling smoothness took a hit after the Pie update, many apps (including chrome) seem to stutter a lot for me.

Absolutely true. I just couldn't take it anymore and decided to install the latest Open Beta build, considering that Beta 3 was pretty smooth overall. And yes, Beta 4 is smoother than stable Pie. I don't get how the initial stable Pie build managed to make it to the masses in such a state. For the past few days, the experience on my phone was utter s#!t. I'll stay on Open Beta until things get better on 'stable Pie.
Is there scroll stutter on pie-based LOS and Havoc OS or is it limited to OOS only?

Recent apps lag
Hello everyone,
I'm experiencing some stutter and lags with my One Plus 6. For exempe, if I scroll quickly trough the recent apps in the multitask, I can see some frame drops and it's very annoying. I don't understand why...It should work extremely fluessly with a Snapdragon 845. Are some people having the same issue here ?
Thank you so much !
The only way I've found of stopping the stuttering and poor scrolling is for to go to developer options and set the background process limit to "at most, 4 process"

Yeah it feels like it lags a lot. Not buttery smooth like say on Samsungs but definitely not the best it lags a lot trust me. Hope they fix it with a software update
My Nokia 8.1 always gives little lag while scrolling. May it be a long web pages or in google now or news app... dont know is it because of GPU or anything else... hope nokia and google fix this with an OTA update

I feel you. It should arrive this week i think the february update. Fingers crossed. Quick question do you play Brawl Stars or other games that require 2 fingers at the same time one for walking and one for shooting , it freezes for a sec or two then you remove the finger and touch it again to make it work. Any experience like this?
I just disabled usage access of Digital wellbeing (not much of use to me) , scrolling and UI is very smooth now
It frequently freezes even after Q OTA upgrade, that is ridiculous, my phone is still brand new.

Yes the phone performs well and good.
Smoothest Android experience I've ever had yet and I used Huawei EMUI 8 before, which is also extremeley smooth.
Stock Android doesn't run as smooth as EMUI or ONE UI do.
Only iOS runs smoother, but I thinks it's also the touch implementaion into iOS, not only optimized software.
I had an S7 as a work phone until last year and this was so terrible to work with. It lagged everywhere. Samsung made a huge effort with One UI.
The only time I've noticed some stutter is the odd time when swiping down the notification shade on the lock screen. Even then, it's been very rare.
S10 scrolling is okay, iOS still has the great scrolling experience I've had. I hope Android or maybe Samsung can mimic that scrolling behavior.
I used an iPhone X before and with my new S10 the scrolling feels really strange. I also tested it on a S9 of a fried and there it is the same.
It definetily is really smooth, but if you flick scroll for example in Instagram and you want to stop scrolling with tap-holding the screen again, then there is a small delay. Also the scroll speed is very strange in my opinion. Does somebody have the same issue?
The scrolling on my iPhone X definetily feels more natural.
Does somebody also noticed a small stutter when scrolling through the YouTube feed? Same with reddit.
Yes! I did, but on a 10e and only sometimes. Its the same in Nova App Drawer and Whatsapp for instance.
Maybe I'm tripping and also I've read that now every app uses gpu to draw 2D but maybe you should tell me your experience with this option enabled in devs options.

I'm so glad I found this thread. This problem is driving me nuts.
On Verizon S10.
Mine is doing fine. I think the reason is more ram compared to the samsung S8 I had. More ram maybe indicates we see few years of updates for the S10.
Mine is choppy and laggy. Also kinda freezes sometimes too. I synced data from my s8 when I got it so will try a fresh install not synced

Yes mine is exynos too. I have suspected it to be due to this partly possible

Go to developers option and put all animation option to .5 from 1 & see it fly ... for all 3 setting...i feel the animations are a tad bit slow .75 should had been perfect !

I agree 1 is too slow, and you can set .75 animation speed using adb

Ironically exynos isnmuch more optimised as its samsung home grown chipset ; look at snapdragon counter part it laggs much more but its much better at battery !
Problem with exynos is bad battery life and overheating issue !
