I'm the owner of a flame, which is arguably on the higher end of the scale for FxOS devices. The OS feels snappy, comparable to Android on a decent device. Applications vary and obviously you won't run most of the things you run on Android anyway - they just don't exist. Some things are still rough atm, but there seems to be a very recent announcement [1] about upcoming and freshly landed improvements similar to Project Butter on Android. The performance feels really good enough in the 2.2 builds I'm running. That said: The _general_ user experience isn't there yet. I carry the Flame with me most of the time, but I won't replace my 'Android for mails and IM' less-then-smart-phone setup just yet. Keyboard, copy&paste, basic applications like a mail client - all of that still requires quite some compromises. I want to ditch Android for FxOS, but so far the drop in productivity isn't worth it. For me. 1: http://www.masonchang.com/blog/2015/1/22/project-silk http://www.masonchang.com/blog/2015/1/22/project-silk
