Unfortunately, this is a cause that has no apparent solution.
There are several reasons why a smartphone may have gap or some kind of to slow down in your operating system. An exhausted battery, a full storage capacity, a full RAM memory…
In fact, even Apple’s own iPhone can also lag. But generalizing and under normal conditions an iPhone will never have as much lag as an Android smartphone
This is the REAL reason why Android is lagging
If you have ever had an Android smartphone from Xiaomi, Huawei, OnePlus, Google or even Samsung in your hands – in high-end phones this is less likely to happen – you will surely have noticed this. performance is not so smooth like on an iPhone. There is a lag.
Why do Android phones tend to have more lag than Apple smartphones? Is it because they are made with cheaper hardware components? Or because the applications consume too much RAM? Nothing of the sort. This is actually due to the famous and unfortunate fragmentation of Android.
Android fragmentation refers to the fact that there is a large number of different versions of the operating system available for an even larger number of several smartphone models. A serious consequence related to software open-source. Android smartphones are subject to all kinds of restrictions, both in terms of security and performance. So much so that only 30% have installed one of the last two Android updates.
Fortunately, Google reacts quickly and launches all kinds of security updates of Android to cover the problems caused by fragmentation, because otherwise the thing would happen to the majors. The fragmentation of Android generates a great incons istency that ends up resulting in stability problems and slowdowns (lag) of the operating system.
In summary, there are many brands manufacturers and there are too many different versions of Android. Not all of them can be perfectly adapted to many different smartphones.
A lag-free world, a better world
Of course there is Other reasons -previously mentioned- which is why lag can also affect these Android smartphones, regardless of the operating system they are running. But the main reason for this tedious and uncomfortable lag is Android’s fragmentation.
In other words, a Huawei Mate 10 running Android 12 logically would not offer the same performance than a next-gen Samsung Galaxy S22. And conversely, a OnePlus 11 running Android 7.0 Nougat would not have the same fluidity as an Oppo R11 Plus whose hardware was designed to work with this type of hardware.
Do you need more proof? We can see a clear demonstration in one of the latest Android updates. As our highly reputable colleagues at Andro4all detail very well, the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 from 4 years ago was the first to receive the January 2023 Android update. How can this be? What’s the point? Won’t that have negative consequences on your performance?
This is why many iPhone users brag about the iconic “heavenly harmony” between hardware and software from their terminals. Because Apple and its ecosystem are designed from a single natural perspective, from the same seed that germinates and sees the birth of a sublime and majestic operating system… without lag.
