As a former Android user, I say that a history of responsiveness issues on Android devices makes me particularly sensitive to issues like this popping up on the latest hot new Android device. Responsiveness is a big feature that pushed me onto iOS devices. Kind of ironic, given that it's the other way around on the desktop for me: my Linux machines are nice and responsive even on modest hardware, while my former MacBook Pro beach-balled and beach-balled. It took going entirely solid-state storage on the MacBook Air for OS X to stop driving me insane with responsiveness issues.
