Hi, I was wondering about how people are experiencing the performance with Nougat update. Based on my experience on S7edge & S7 (yes I have both ), the grace UX feels very smooth. Transitions / Animations are super smooth. Flipping the screen or scrolling has also been much smoother. One thing I noticed that the phone screen resolution on both my devices default to FHD (1080P) instead of WQHD (2K) with the official (I'm not a beta tester) Nougat update. The in game experience seems a bit smoother especially in Asphalt 8 / Extreme, Need for Speed No Limits & Assassin's Creed Identity. Don't need the feel to revert back to QHD as with Video enhancing feature turned on, the Video playback looks crisp & clear. Don't notice any big difference.
Feel free to share your Nougat specific performance experience.

So I have been playing around with my new 4.7 and immediately noticed that, in comparison to my Samsung S3, slow scrolling with the
thumb on the display causes jerky movement, like a couple of pixels at the time. This looks horrible in comparison to the S3 where every
motion seems perfectly fluid. Has anyone else noticed this and why isn't it implemented the right way? Seems to be an easy fix.
Does the 5.5 suffer from this issue as well?
Note: It's not lag. It's like there aren't enough frames for it to look smooth. This happens during scrolling in webpages and settings etc.
It seems they totally turned off this little project from back in the day:
http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/G/google_project_butter.html
"Google Project Butter accomplished its “buttery smooth” responsiveness and “speed infusion” improvements via three main additions: triple buffering, which improves coordination and animation synchronization between the CPU, GPU and display; VSync, which improves graphical performance and increases frame rates to 60fps (frames per second); and touch responsiveness, which predicts a user’s upcoming actions of the screen in order to improve load times for those actions.:
No one willing to test?
Okay :good:
Mine does the same (4.7). But is not something that bother me. It is a cheap device after all.

Thanks for your input. Whether or not the device is relatively 'cheap' shouldn't really matter, as it's a matter of frame rate and could
be easily tweaked through a software change.
Any input from 5.5 owners?
Wow, this really sucks. It's one of my favorite features. There are several videos where the slow motion is really choppy and skips a lot, see here:

And then we have a perfectly smooth and what looks like higher res slow motion video from a user here who owns the exynos version:

What in the world is going on?
This is already being discussed here:

I have a s7 exynos running android 6 and my games like modern combat 5, unkilled etc lags sometimes and frame drops.
Maybe bacause of the 2k resolution of our screen???
Will it help to increase my fps on games if i install nougat beta and set the screen resolution to 1080p or 720p???? My suspect is the screen resolution that make my games lag.
Some phones exhibit choppy scrolling, especially when navigating long web pages when multiple apps are running in the background. Rate this thread to express how you smooth scrolling feels on the Samsung Galaxy S9+ under such conditions. A higher rating indicates that scrolling is always buttery smooth, even when you're reading a 10,000 word article on "how to kiss a girl".
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Well I guess I'll be the first to reply. I am not experiencing buttery scrolling! The Facebook app which is built into the UI stutters and hiccups constantly. Scrolling through web pages on Chrome is not buttery smooth in the slightest. Did I get a bad unit or is there anything that I can do to assist in smoothing my scrolling? I'm coming from an iPhone 7 plus and never had issues like this!
Haven't used the Facebook app but I find chrome to be smooth. Try going to chrome://flags and enabling smooth scrolling to see if that helps.
In my experience, chrome always ran like garbage on Samsung phones. This is the first time I can say that's no longer the case! (My last one was s7).
have not found any problems yet on scrolling its buttery smooth

I would say the same, it's fast and fluid and scrolling is smooth for me without any jitter, hope this remains :good:
Samsung is known to jitter and lag. It can never be as smooth as a pixel
I used the SM-G-965F model for about a month and then switched to the SM G-9650 model available locally. No issues with smoothness with either of them but G-9650 is little faster at everything.

It's now smooth due to the latest update.
Very smooth and quick

...is that an experience feedback from someone who runs the S9+ or just a prejudice? Naming the brand Samsung only means throwing a J3, A5, S9, S9+ in the same pot and compare these to a Pixel? What a confusing world this is
Let's continue with a fact: I do own a S9+ for 3 months now. I packed it full with apps and didn't experience lags yet. Hope it stays this way, it's really a high performance phone to me. But what do I know...? :good:
On twitter, Chrome, YouTube and most other apps, scrolling is not as smooth as a Kirin 970 chip should be.
How about you guys?
Is it just me or is there minor stuttering here and there.
My earlier 3t and U11 and even MiA1 were much much smoother.
Someone please answer...
Do I need to replace this unit or
Get a refund as I cannot deal with stuttering while scrolling.
Emui 8 not smooth as stock android or even Galaxy S8 / S9 UI. It's sadly true.
