Some phones exhibit choppy scrolling, especially when navigating long web pages when multiple apps are running in the background. Rate this thread to express how you smooth scrolling feels on the Honor 9i under such conditions. A higher rating indicates that scrolling is always buttery smooth, even when you're reading a 10,000 word article on "how to kiss a girl".

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

I noticed that the animation speed on my unit was set to 0.5x and 0.1x and the scrolling was overall choppy.
Opening and closing apps was the same.
It kind of gave the impression of a really fast phone but with the sacrifice of smoothness.

I've gone and changed the animation speed to 1x and it's behaving more than decently from the developer options.

Just a tip :)

Isn't better with no animation what so ever, no effects? Gets quicker when set off. For me works better this way, no animation.

Yes, I agree it's faster that way, and apps and menus open and close faster but my problem was, being a long time Nexus user is that it gave a noticable choppy feel. I instinctively knew that they've changed the animation speed from the Android default 1x.
I've since sold the mate and bought the Samsung s8 as it was on a deal and it hardly cost me extra.

By comparing both in terms of app and menu opening speed the mate is faster but not fluid. And that's what bothered me. Fluidity.
