iOS is silky smooth by comparison to Android.
Kinda difficult to explain the market success of Android.

Are you agreeing or disagreeing with his point?
I don't know about other Android phones, but on my Galaxy S3 what
he says is true and just the other day I had to reboot my phone
as it was very, very slow, the reboot made it "fast" again..
I don't like Apple (nor Microsoft), so I'm stuck with Android,
but this doesn't mean that I consider that Android is good.. For
me it's like Windows in the early days, not very good but usable.
