Don't just take someone else's word for it. I have the G6 with no lag at all; it is a great device. Still, I don't see it as a huge upgrade to the Pixel, so unless you're itching for something new, you could probably save some money.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Tristan1302:
Damn

Guys, stop crying, the S8 is released since 3 days, so wait about applications optimisations by the devs, and software updates which would probably avoid the problem.

Galaxy S8+ Snapdragon 835 Vs Exynos 8895 Benchmark Tests [Comparison]

Have you guys seen this:

http://www.redmondpie.com/galaxy-s8-snapdragon-835-vs-exynos-8895-benchmark-tests-comparison/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] :
It's not crying, and no, I'm not going to wait for "optimizations" or "software updates". This device was $720, and I don't know about you, but that's a lot of money for me. Therefore I expect it to work out of the box, and work well/properly. That's no different that you saying, "Stop crying about the fact that your new car that you just bought won't shift out of first gear; once optimizations and updates come from your car manufacturer, it should shift into 2nd gear, and maybe even 3rd." Sorry, not acceptable.

That being said, I got my Verizon day 1 update yesterday (Saturday). After I rebooted, I saw that the Bixby button remap had disappeared (as expected), so I uninstalled All In One Actions as I didn't need it anymore. After that, my S8 is smooth as silk. So my problem was most likely All In One Actions. Just wanted to put that out there; I'm pretty happy with it now. :D
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Denisholc:
definitely worst phone I pre-ordered. Should've just stayed on S6 and not spending money on this garbage phone
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] wakdady:
which options are you talking about? to save ram and battery?

I just bought this phone coming from the pixel xl. i like everything about it. EXCEPT for the lag when scrolling. i swear it's about to be a deal breaker. i bought it directly from samsung, i should probably look into their return policy.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] iamnotkurtcobain:
Kidding right?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Reactiv:
Pretty damning statement there. What is it you SSO dislike? I've just sent my s8+ because of some tiny scratches on it from factory. I did notice the screen stuttering on youtube but I'm going to stick it out. Hopefully updates will sort these.

Anybody got any comments on call quality/strength?

Separately having come from an axon 7 I'm most disappointed about the speaker. Didn't realise the iPhone uses the ear peace to act as the other half to make stereo speakers.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Tristan1302:
This is not the same things, you cannot compare a car with a smartphone, a car doesn't use all the technologies of a smartphone, and it's not impossible to see a car with big problem on the board computer, or a default on the motor, even on the gearbox, it's an expensive phone for me too, i agree with you, but you can accept some problems, and this is not a big big problem, like a exploding phone, so please, don't be so hard with a 3 days phone.

Btw, I'm really impressed by this phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Denisholc:
No I'm not. It's not funny have a phone worth 800€ but wifi doesn't even work. I'm pretty sure that's Android fault but you think that I'm gonna wait months for this bull**** to be resolved? I'm happy that it works everything ok for you but that is not in my case....
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
I tend to agree with people that don't want to wait for updates.

I mean nobody from Samsung said they were going to improve smoothness or reduce stutter in coming updates no?

Moreover there are other phones at the same price tag without issues, so why stick with the s8?

Anyway I think everybody can decide for itself what it deems acceptable.

Myself I'm not very tolerant when buying a top tier product, when I spend a lot I expect a lot too.

Not limited to smartphone.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
Thanks for the comment, right now I'm mainly looking for a smaller package than the pixel xl, while keeping good performance, good camera and big display.

What about the battery life though? 4h screen on time is a minimum for me; 5h is perfect.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mhill1986:
In my experience, the G6 should meet your requirements. I had 6 hours SOT yesterday with about 15 total on battery, I think. I would say my usual is between 4.5 and 5 hours through the day. Yeah, sounds like it might be a good choice for you. Camera might be a step down, but you get the wide angle. Some have complained of lag, but mine runs very smoothly. Seems like you get lag complaints on every phone when you read XDA.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] KennyLG123:
Sometimes if you go into developer options and change animations to 0 it may fix some of the lagging it has helped on older devices.....

I have the same issue.. This is obvious when I type. The lag is really bad and causes the typing is slow and hangs.

Is there a solution?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
Some people had success uninstalling/disabling samsung apps (search for package disabler (samsung) on the playstore) and/or their own apps until it was smooth again (or doing a factory reset).

I didn't had this chance, the phone scrolling wasn't smooth since the beginning on one of my most used app: Fenix; even after two factory reset, only installing instagram and fenix.

Wish you can find a fix!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mattogodoy:
I'm looking forward to have root in this phone and being able to install some "vanilla" Android ROM with no samsung crap all over it.

This is a BEAST of a phone, and I'm sure that it would fly with pure Android.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] wappla1911:
Yeah scrolling is laggy.... also on my device

Weird. Mind never stutter lag or slowdoen. Smoother device i have own. My last 4 phones. Nexus 6p, iphone 7, oneplus 3T, gs7 edge. And this is actually the fastest and smoothest plus runs cold all the time. Im in lov. Battery is grwat with 3000mah only getting close to 6 hours
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
Impressive.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
Wow! That's exactly what I was wishing for with this phone, that's why I suspect there was something wrong with mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] varun.gid:
im on the euro variant and there has been no lag. Button remapers are culprits usually if you have them installed. Remove them and reboot should hopefully smoothen the stutters.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
I think I found the problem, I got the lg g6 too recently and it suffers from the same issue... BUT it might be limited to resized apps.

For example facebook and instagram are resized by default (can't be change) and pretty laggy.

Fenix wasn't resized to 18:9 by default and I was quite happy with the scrolling, then I resized it to 18:9 and things started to get messy right away.

I went back to default and everything was fine again.

Could anyone confirmed my theory on there own phones (G6 & S8)?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadsteel:
Have you guys notice that if you scroll with your finger still touching the screen it will lag, but if you flick the screen to scroll it will be smooth?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] spinkick:
If you used any kind of data restore like smart switch, etc. You are going to get less than the best results. Android just does not have a great way to easily move data between different phones. I'd factory reset, and reinstall the apps you use and set them up. I did it this way and my phone has amazing battery life and no lag. I also dont use facebook or snapchat as their android programs are incredibly inefficient.

Also, if you have any accessibility features turned on, you are going to get more lag because of the way google has set it up, and how apps monitor changes on the screen. Lastpass, etc. Google is correcting this in android O by making lastpass not have to use accessibility.

If you really want to fix this and are okay with putting in some work. Factory wipe your phone, and dont install any apps. Check to see if you are getting lag or anything of the sort. This will tell you that its not the base phone, but an app you have. Get some sort of battery tracker like gsam and SLOWLY add apps that you use and test each time. Be scientific about it, make sure you only make a change at a time and then youll pinpoint your issue. Really, you can make this work.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadsteel:
Thank you for that. I have found the issue. It was bixby action app that I used to remap the bixby button. I turned it off in accessibility and the scrolling lag stopped.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] lorenzo.themax92:
Really, bixby button remap is not the problem. The problem is in the way the CPU or the GPU works with the kernel and the SW.

Samsung has to push some firmware updates to fix the issue.

However, an issue may be related to app optimization for 18:9 as another user suggested.

---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 PM ----------

Are you sure that Facebook and Instagram are resized by default? How to check this?

:)

Also, Google Maps is pretty laggy. The most laggy app ever.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] duminduweera:
I had scrolling lag in all my apps, and now that i uninstalled bxactions, its gone!!!!

Thanks for this.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] prodigyX:
I had occasional stuttering and questionable battery life (S8+ Exynos - South Africa), but I read on another thread that this can be caused by using "Smart Switch" during initial setup (apps not auto-installing properly).. So I performed a factory reset and manually installed apps one-by-one.. No lag!! Battery life seems better too but I need a few days to really find out
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Dreadk:
If you don't have the resize button (the green circle on the multitasking screen); the app is already supporting the 18:9 ratio by default.

Anyway I did some more tests on another s8 and sadly my theory was proved wrong.

The other exynos s8 I tried did stutter and lag like mine with or without resizing the apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Asher22:
me too

got it few days ago

installed only Facebook and Waze, the phone is great only when scrolling of facebook all the contects lil bit washed out

I tried disabling bloatwares using BK disabler but the lag is still there.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] tasoli:
Thanks, this was the problem for me as well. Disabled it in accessibility and the lag was gone instantly.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] bigdad1963:
I don't know how anybody who's done any research whatsoever on Samesong could be surprised. I've written in different forms that touchwiz lag would inevitably happen because Samsung hasn't acknowledged it much less fixed it. Depends on how many apps and what type of apps you have as far as how much stutter or lag you get, and the only way to avoid it almost entirely is to get a stock android phone. Touchwiz lag is why I left Samesung and why I am holding onto my Nexus 6P with a death grip hoping it doesn't die on me. Please forgive any errors as this was voice dictated on the fly on a piece of crap iPhone that my work forces me to use.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] greystealth:
I found something interesting here. I noticed that whenever I did a fresh boot, I would notice scroll lag in many areas. I thought to try adjusting the Screen Resolutiom settings to see if that had anything to do with it. Moved my setting to FHD from WQHD and lag gone. Switched it back to WQHD and still smooth. Strange but it works and remains smooth until my next reboot. Try it out and let me know if you guys experience the same.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] thahim:
I think most of apps are not yet fully compatible with S8.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] haree87:
For me its a lagfest when i switched the resolution to hd+. In fhd+ and wqhd+ this thing is buttery smooth. Pretty strange considering hd+ is less demanding. Mine is s8 exynos btw
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] bastiHST:
My device also stutters. Especially when i swipe to the App drawer, in the gallery app when I swipe from pictures to folders, sometimes in chrome when scrolling (mostly left to right) and when I pull down the notification bar/quick settings. This is really annoying. This phone is so expensive....

I never used bixby remapper or something else in the accessibility settings....

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] jbw716:
Thanks for this! I never would've guessed that the Bixby button remapper was the cause of this random lag!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] tasoli:
Sorry for the late reply, I had a Bixby remapping app installed and disabling it fixed the stuttering instantly. I can't remember which app it was, but it must have been the way the app was monitoring for the Bixby button press that was causing my perceived stuttering.

Hey guys, I have a OnePlus 5, so I know it might seem odd posting here, but I have had this issue also, I don't know if this is the year of stuttering phones or what but mine always stutter only if I do small scrolls on Instagram, big scrolls don't seem to stutter.

Here... I receorded a video of it

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kamranhaghighi:
Mine stutters to. I checked it in slow motion (240fps) and the animations are more than horrible (compared to the iPhone 7!) not just that but it skips frames and the animations aren't very well polished like IOS. I'm not sure if it's the same on other phones or it's android in general unless I get a non Samsung phone somehow!

no videos available on the internet either, only videos of Iphones!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] kimw:
Switched from an OnePlus 5T to a brand new Note 8 Exynos.

Scrolling in Facebook has always been a little janky with a lot of stutter, even on my Pixel 1.

The Note 8 stuttering while scrolling through Facebook is even worse. Almost to a degree where it's no where near acceptable to my eyes. I can't even scroll slow und smooth.. It always stutters in Facebook no matter if I turn of video auto play or not.. No matter if it's preloading things or not. It always has jank. I noticed a similar behavior on Instagram as well. Other "scrolling" apps might be affected also.

I am pretty sure that it's Samsungs own "scrolling behavior" that they have implemented into their software. It somehow interferes with the apps code.

Since I use those apps a lot on my phone, I will be sending the Note 8 back. This would always bother me. I am very sensitive with such things.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] WEissbr0t:
I've found the solution!

I own a Galaxy S9 and I experienced laggy scrolling during touching the touchscreen with my Finger/Thumb. When I do a short swipe, after lifting my Finger/Thumb, then all is fluid at that specific moment!

I remembered, I had this kind of issue a couple of years ago. It was an active 3rd. party service-app / functionality in the accessibility options (on the bottom in this settings) ==>> there, where you can enable Talkback and so on...

In my case it was the active service called "Desktop Hub" which is normally being used in Samsung DEX to force unsupported Apps to run in fullscreen mode! Also the App "DeX MAX" is known for that.

After I disabled/uninstalled this App, all of it is running fine and I have a buttery smooth scrolling experience! Also a smooth experience in the whole system!

So check your accessibility settings, if there is a 3rd. party App enabled, which might interfere with touch/scrolling behaviors! :laugh:

Know Issues:

Only certain camera apps seem to work. OpenCamera is included with the build, but you can only video record up to 1080. Anything higher will break. Due to the fact that bliss doesn't use ffmpeg, there might be issues with certain codecs and in certain apps. Everything else seems to work great, you can take great pics. The media_codecs still need some more tweaking though. There possibly might be issues with with other apps dealing with the codec issue. Ie snapchat.
