I find that hard to believe considering the reviews I've read on it.
- flukus 10y agoI know, I read the same reviews so I was pleasantly surprised. I even went back to the store a few days later and bought dad his first smart phone for Christmas. It really is quite criminal how slow android is on machines that would have been unimaginably high powered desktops not long ago. Firefox/gecko has always been great on "underpowered" hardware though. A few years ago I bought an unusably slow android tablet. This thing couldn't play an MP3 without long pauses every 5 seconds. Chrome was absolutely useless but with Firefox it became a half decent web browsing machine.
- computerex 10y agoTo say you are comparing apples to oranges would be an understatement. Your comparison went from kind of making sense to making no sense at all.
- flukus 10y agoWhich comparison? I was comparing firefox OS to android and later saying how good firefox performance is in general.

- fabrice_d 10y agoThat is true. On the same HW, Firefox OS was better than Android.
