Overall speed

[XDA_RealLifeReview]

Would you say that the Sony Xperia L1 is "fast" in day-to-day use? A higher rating indicates that you think the Sony Xperia L1 exhibits fantastic performance. Like, is it as fast as your tears when you watch The Titanic?

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

This is, by far, the slowest phone I have ever owned. Like EXTREMELY slow.

Having read glowing reviews on it, I'm quite baffled...

Xperia L1 is not the best but is far from the worst. For me is great compared to cost.

To have a honest opinion the device is offering good hardware for the money he ask.
As a rating performance/cost is about 8/9 stars. The phone is really responsive and work sharp.

Google Chrome has been found to still obtain background data even when not in usage, so if you force stop and disable it you might notice a performance increase, especially in weaker networks? I used Firefox from the beginning so I have no comparison benchmarks, but it's worth a shot, and Firefox has a pretty good mobile web browser anyway.
