Does the p40 series scroll faster than the p30? Wonder if the new MIUI 10.1 improves on that.

It definitely is smoother than 60hz screens.

Thanks for your reply.
I am asking about the scrolling speed, not smoothness.
For example, any Pixel seens faster on this compared to Huawei, both at 60 hz.

I see..for me scrolling on p40 pro is smoother than the other 60hz screens I am using (including my old pixel 2xl). However, faster might not be smoother. I agree pixel is fast in scrolling but it's more jittery.

Thanks again.
Can you compare P40 vs P30 on scrolling speed?

You'r welcome. I don't have p30 pro currently though I had used it for a brief period last year. My earlier comment will still hold true..the animations on p40 pro (scrolling, opening/closing apps, etc) will feel smoother compared to P30 pro

Scrolling depends on what You scroll my biggest experience is my daily fiddle wit fb page in Chrome and Yes 90Hz P40 pro is better than my previous P30 pro in it

Same same speed on default. If you want to scroll faster: choose the right Browser and increase animations speed

How do I increase animation speed?
O do not see that option, maybe not looking in the right place.

Smooth af. 90hz is a nice addition, and doesn't seem to hit the battery very hard.

Scrolling is definately faster than p30 pro.
Slow scrolling speed is something that I dislike

I've been struggling with Chrome recently, but it's better than my OP6T. I had to switch back to the stock browser which gives no jitter, but I do miss the bookmarks and other features of Chrome. Any suggestion?

I think that some browsers are locked on 60fps, that's why it feels laggy on 90Hz screen. Opera is the same.

Overall it feels good, just rarely I get these little stutters. Can't recall in what app atm.
System-wise it's perfect, I'd say 4/5 atm, will try to see when exactly and in what apps I get this stutter.
I am coming from Oneplus5 and it's not as smooth, menu opening and closing is bit slow, scrolling through web pages is not smooth and occasional lag occurred, Huawei launcher is a joke, hardly any people will prefer to use, I have to use developer option and set animation to 0.5x from 1.x to get fast menu speed. also, 960 frame per second video is a joke and its limited to few seconds, it seems like to complete with Sony and Samsung the feature been added without proper implementation, front camera has strange waved going across when trying to take the shot TV and monitor etc.
I've had my P20 for 5 days and find WEB scrolling to be pretty good, however screen swipe transitions can feel a little jerky compared to the
iPhone 6S (the phone I had before this). But all in all the P20 is good, fast and I have had no problems.

I'm using AdGuard to stop most of the back ground advertising to load.
Cures the stutters in web page loading and scrolling.

Yeh, seen that before on other phones. Something to do with frequency/refresh of TV screens.
I got my P20 Pro 4 days ago, and to me it's been a frustrating experience due to scrolling lag. The overall experience when I scroll in the Facebook app, Instagram or webpages using Chrome is really laggy and disappointing. I came from a OnePlus 5T without and lag problems at all. So hoping for a quick fix or I move to another phone.
Updated huawei P20
I can confirm there are occasional stutter while navigating through apps and webpages (AdGuard is installed).
I have not experienced any of these stutters. Scrolling is smooth AF.
I have some problems in Tapatalk and Google photos, there is scrolling not smooth. Haven't noticed it somewhere else, I use Samsung browser and browsing scrolling is fine. Same in settings and between screens it works flawless

The device is pretty smooth and fast, the only time I do see minor slowdowns is when loading all my content in the Gallery, there is a slight delay but otherwise all good.
Hi
I just moved from Samsung S6 and this pisses me off. Web pages i one thing, but I feel like some of my subtle touches are lost. The sensitivity of The screen seems to be lower compared to Old Samsung. I also measured with Google Photos and with a single tap I'm able to scroll more than 2 longer distance on S6. Feels like slower response is fixed by limiting scroll speed :/ iPad responsivness is even better than S6 and Mate and iPad beats S6 in FPS.
P. S. I also haven't removed original screen protector but I don't believe it can make such a difference.

Apple devices have always trumped Android in this area. Piece of **** Android OS.

My one disappointment with this tablet is that it still has uneven(jello)scrolling in prortrait mode, but I just tested a new Ipad 11 pro as well and they have it too(tho not as bad).

I think all devices seem to have it to some extent , especially tablets, either in portrait of landscape. Surprised iPad pro had it, thought the fast refresh rate might make it better
yes it's crappy video chips, they render one direction natively and are slower than death rendering the other direction.
One thing injust realized is that the jello scroll is all but gone if you use samsung internet. Compared with chrome its night and day

I can see it on anything if I scroll and look out for it
yes I agree but it is significantly reduced in the samsung browser vs anything from google.

I reduced the refresh rate to 60 Hz to save some battery life to compensate for some other battery-hogging tweaks, and honestly, I can't tell the difference in my own use. It's still plenty crisp and smooth.
That being said, I'm not a gamer, and I don't watch videos on the phone save for the occasional YouTube video that someone will send me a link to; so don't take my experience as necessarily being typical. For the way I use the phone, it's nice and smooth even at 60 Hz. YMMV.
This phone is smooth when scrolling. It's the smoothest scrolling phone I've ever experienced.
I have terrible smoothness. Everything laging when scrolling. 5t when bought was working much more smoothly. If the update does not improve the situation, I will sell the phone and forget about Oneplus

These are at 60Hz. I needed to offset some other battery-hogging tweaks I made, so I turned the refresh rate down.

I think that has more to do with YouTube's resizing and transcoding than anything else. Playing the videos directly on my computer, they look much better; and looking directly at the screen rather than at a recording, I don't notice any jerkiness to speak of.
Maybe my eyes are just older.
Agree with you
My unit:
@60 - jagged scrolling, not good at all.
@90 - ultra smooth, it's like a different device.

Coming from an iphone user, the scrolling feels choppy and stuttered.. Always had this feeling with Android phones. This is my work phone.. Any idea how we can tweak how scrolling works system wide?

You can try turning off animations that might make it feel choppy but won’t do much
