What an unfair review. Compare like units. My Droid (especially now that it is running Froyo) has literally none of these problems. There is no lag between launching applications and when you replace the terrible stock launcher with LauncherPro, it really gives great performance. I have no shuddering and I also have Flash in my browser. Works reasonably well, especially when using 'On Demand' mode.
Reviewing Android on the ram/cpu starved Hero doesn't really give Android a chance to shine.
- masklinn 16y ago> What an unfair review. Compare like units. Uh that's what he did. If anything his comparison was still heavily android-tilted: he compared a 2 years old iPhone 3G with a year-old HTC Hero. > My Droid Uh yeah, so your idea of fairness is to compare a 2 years old iPhone 3G with a 7 month old Droid? > Reviewing Android on the ram/cpu starved Hero doesn't really give Android a chance to shine. Yes, because the 3G is well known not to be CPU and RAM starved (wait, it is, it has half the RAM and ~80% of the Hero's CPU)
- sambeau 16y agoI thought this was very fair, balanced and interesting. He was comparing an old Android with an old iPhone. Hopefully someone this balanced will do a fair comparison of the iPhone 4G when it comes out to one of the new Android phones hyped up after Google I/O.
- ZeroGravitas 16y agoI agree that balanced reviews like this are needed but it would be even better if they compared more than one phone. On the Android side there are obviously a bunch with different manufacturers and target demographics, but even on the Apple side I believe that the 3GS will continue to be sold as a cheaper alternative to the 4G (or HD or whatever the new model is called).
