I’ve been on Android since 1.5 and the “snappy” claims remind me a lot of the claims every new version there too. They’re likely still going, though I haven’t been active on XDA for a long time to know.
Is it actually objectively faster? Or is it a perception thing based on the way animations and screen changes are handled?
Blink and V8 are demonstrably ages ahead of Gecko and SpiderMonkey. It’s not even close. I just didn’t think it would be this noticable during day-to-day use.
