Too late, the market has moved on to better and affordable alternatives. They dropped the ball in 2018 and will never recover. OnePlus, Huawei, and Samsung are the rulers in the android world now

You cant be serious..iPhones have never been able to download as fast as a Note

Well, you said smooth and snappy and I assumed in normal use. It is just inherit to the way the OS functions. You can debug the HWUI and see how crappy it gets (on dev options). You can help remedy this with disabling GPU overlays but you increase battery use a bit as a trade off. Just an issue with Android that you can mask, but it is still there.

As for download speed, that is more at the mercy of the radios inside moreso than anything. :yeshrug:

Interesting because the Note 10 plus is pretty damn snappy even though my s20 ultra has the 120 hertz rate.

Yes those high end devices are certainly smooth, but it still isn't perfect so to speak. I guess "smooth enough" is applicable here.

I'm either buying the 4a or 4a 5g as my next phone. I love my pixel 3a but I'll give it to my pops

If it wasn't for Covid I would probably cop this and the Fold 2 but I'll probably hang on to this V30 until next Spring.

4a might be the move.

My 3a's screen shattered so
:manny:

The screens on these models are fragile as fukk.

The 4a looks good but the best take I've seen on it is that they should have launched it at 399 instead of 349 and used a better processor. I agree:yeshrug:
