I use a Pixel 2 and I felt the phone extremely sluggish compared to my old iPhone 7 from day one. The Pixel 2 was supposed to be a flagship model, so it makes me reluctant to ever buy an Android phone from another manufacturer; I can only assume non-flagship phones are slower than the official Google one. Is this a correct assumption? The most frustrating thing about Android is its excruciating scrolling performance. When scrolling webpages you can see the animation isn't synced: the bottom part of the screen struggles to keep up with the top part, and it feels like the text is made up of a bunch of dancing ants, especially if you scroll slowly. iOS's scrolling is flawless. Reading stuff a primary use case of smartphones, why hasn't Google addressed this? Fortunately, Chrome on Android has decent scrolling performance and it's the only reason I haven't thrown this phone in the trash.
