Is the title ironic? A dual-core ARM is indeed nice, but it's pretty far from "incredibly" (yes, yes, emphasis theirs) powerful. Or "nice new super powerful". Or "crazy powerful". All used in the article.
- StavrosK 16y agoAlso, why are the animations lagging?
- ramy_d 16y agobecause it's not production hardware/software yet. right? RIGHT? - oh god... i'm going to be really bummed out if this is actually lagging on "incredibly powerful" hardware.
- viraptor 16y agoMaemo, so I assume Meego too, has strange caching / scheduler issues sometimes. It can work fine for a week, then suddenly after I try to unlock the keyboard it takes >10 seconds to start displaying anything, then I can see the unlock screen redrawing with each element moving in the correct place after a while... Then again a week of flawless behaviour. They seem to have multitasking scheduling problems in many places [1,2,others]. Still - the platform isn't bad. So to answer the question - I honestly think it was that kind of a glitch. Also, keep in mind that meego on the mobile is not considered stable / usable yet - it was just a tech preview.
