Default bench Mark of 3422 in quadrant - but G.Note is so laggy

Quadrant benchmark must be flawed.

Is there a LAG fix available for the Galaxy Note similar to the one that was available for the Galaxy Tab?

Or maybe the resolution is the issue and Gingerbread doesn't have proper 2d hardware acceleration...

Seriously the Note is exceptionally Laggy in general usage and I am coming from a Firstgen Single cpu core Galaxy Tab 7. That hardware is over a year old and way faster in general operation than the Note which I find really surprising. Also the screen Res on that device is 1024x600 which isn't far off from the Note.

Granted my galaxy tab 7 is running overcome gingerbread variant but it is note overclocked or anything. In fact even on Stock it was faster than the Note.

Also is it me or is the touchscreen sometimes unresponsive?

Please share your experiences.

It's just you.

I've had my Note for about 3 days now and haven't noticed any significant lag or touchscreen responsiveness issue of any sort, even after restoring a bunch of apps from my SGS2 -> Note.

I also have the old Galaxy Tab (see my sig) and the Note is noticably faster in all tasks.

My Note is running the stock KJ4 (rooted now) with the (polish) Plus.pl carrier apps removed.

Hmmm...

I'm not so sure.

This Note definitely isn't as responsive as my Tab and stutter considerably more.

I've also tried different Launchers. Performance across the board in my opinion isn't as consistent as the GS2 either.

I am looking forward to when they are released over here in the UK so I can compare performance to demo units in shops.

At some stage when I have some time I will post a Video.

I am convinced it is an optimisation issue as some Apps respond quickly - but again it's inconsistent.

I have a European Note like you - how did you remove the Carrier Apps?

No lag here on my note what I noticed alternative launchers were laggy so I am still on touchwiz till some optimizations come for other launchers maybe the high resolution is the reason.

The reviews like Engadget etc...have made a point of noticing the opposite...very fast responsiveness.
Hope they're right.
Coming off this Epic 4G Touch...which is blazing, a laggy Note will be a major dissapointment.
Get mine tomorrow.

I broke 3920 on stock. That's a pretty nice score, but yeah I noticed a bit of lag too.

When drawing the content quickly it noticeably drags behind the pen pointer. It's not enough to make drawing/writing unnatural, but it is definitely visible.

On the other hand I tossed on a 1920x1080 mp4 at 25fps and > 5,000kbps bitrate and it played flawlessly and looked beautiful.

This is what is so confusing...

I tried a 720p that played flawlessly too...

Apparently there are some demo units at Oxford Streets carphone warehouse so I will compare and report back.

It's probably worth noting that the demo ones will probably have been played with a lot, having multiple apps running in the ram etc, so they may seem more slugish than a device of your own where you haven't been jumping in and out of multiple apps all day. I'm hoping to find a Galaxy Note in my local store tomorrow but I'll be getting one either way.
