Hi guys
I am a long time galaxy user. I have rooted every phone i had. I used s4 s5 note 4 s6 edge note 5 and now s7 edge. Rooting is the first thing i did on all these phones out of the box. So pretty much i never experienced a non rooted galaxy. All these phones are very powerful in terms of hardware. Despite of the powerful hardware all these phones never performed all smooth with the ui navigation or in terms of responsiveness . I understand with s4 s5 and note 4 having old touchwiz, but even with the redesigned touchwiz on s6 edge and note 5 ui is still not smooth. I experienced lag with scrolling and navigating the ui. By the way i removed all bloat i could on all devices. Used xposed mods that supposedly should "increase" the performance.
Last week i purchased s7 edge. As usual i rooted the second i came home.. Removed bloat and have been using all week. Guess what same experience.. Laggy ui. What i mean by lag is.. Scrolling is not smooth. I press the home button while playing a game it Takes a second To come to home screen. I end the call and it takes a good 1 second to come back to previous screen. Keyboard sometimes takes a second to show up. The animation are not smooth. All this lag is present 40% of the time here and there . This is the same type of lag i experienced with all other devices.
So. I taught of giving the s7 edge a second chance without rooting or any mods. Just stock. I have been using the phone since 2 days.. Guess what.. The phone is perfect and 100% lag free 100% of the time.
Now i m in a dilemma of what to do.. But i do really miss some root apps. Is it just me that had this problem with all the phones i used.. I m really disappointed on rooting now. Do i have to sacrifice smoother ui for rooted apps.
Please share your thoughts.
