This thread has veered a bit it seems from the original topic. With my 6s Plus, I experienced really bad lagging and stuttering while scrolling (say, in Safari or a list in Music), and longer opening times on some apps (especially HTML apps like the App Store) on iOS 10.0 compared to iOS 9.3.x. It was so bad, especially with scrolling in Safari (where I spend most of my time), I went back to iOS 9 while I still could. My iPad Air was even worse - from scrolling to switching Safari tabs, there were delays I never experienced on iOS 9. It's now been seven months and multiple iOS releases and betas since 10.0. I haven't tried any of them to see if things have improved, because I don't want to leave iOS 9 only to be disappointed again by the lags in Safari and scrolling responsiveness. So, what is the general consensus about the state of iOS 10.3.x on the 6s? Does scrolling and Safari still lag? Are HTML-based apps still slow to open? I'd like to update, but...

Not every lcd has yellow tint
Says who? You? Where is the proof of this?

but all oled has burn-in (except of course if you don't use your device).
I use my phone and tablet everyday. No burn in anywhere

If my 5s and 6 can run normally and fine, you're 6 can.
I have seen an 5s in action and it's performance is similar to iPhone 6 which is to say quite bad


The 6 is three years old. And just like pc world proved windows 10 doesn't run on all old hardware, your 6 is having issues.
PC world doesn't say anything about 3 year old PC. It's talking about netbooks from 2007

There is a difference between windows 10 running on arm and being usable. Game called on account of foul.
Windows 10 will be running on a Snapdragon 835 which is comparable to MacBook 2015 CPU which has no issues running Windows.

I still have an old PC from 2006.
This PC is currently running windows 10 with no issues, it's even faster on windows 10 than it used to be on windows vista that it originally shipped with.
Of course it is nowhere as fast as modern current PCs but I am comparing two software versions on the same hardware.
I think that does say something.
Ignore that article. It's irrelevant to the discussion. It's comparing Windows 10 to Windows XP on a netbook from 2007. He knows he can't win the argument by using conventional tower PCs and laptops using i7 from 2009 which is why he deflects to Pentium and Athlon processors.

And if ever it's proved that Windows 10 runs faster than Windows XP on that same PC in the future he will probably deflect to Celeron and so the story never ends

They were just proving a point, which they did admirably.

Running and being usable on a platform which is not native are two different things. If you think w10 on arm=w10 on intel you're in for a letdown. To people who check Facebook and email all phones can do that. Microsoft has failed before in this so we'll see where it goes.

Of course it should be ignored, it just disproves your "point" admirably and that your original statement that started this entire conversations, over many, many days and posts, was incorrect.

Most of this is not relevant to the thread, except the part, my 6s is running great.

By "As expected" do you expect constant tab reloads, typing lag and 5 seconds to open a basic app like Uber/Google maps?

Both Microsoft and Qualcomm night each have a solution for that. Both have efforts to allow regular x86, a.k.a. win32, applications to run on ARM hardware. Qualcomm is also confident that its latest Snapdragon 835 can handle the load, even from something as “heavy” as Photoshop.

My point was never about 20 year old computers but computers from the i7 era from 2009 which had the greatest shift in processing power for the CPU market which has grown stagnant with small IPC gains since then. Thanks for playing

You were flat out wrong on "yellow" tint, but it's a fact about oled burn in. And is that why people were returning oled TVs?

Yes, these devices are running the same or better on the latest ios update than the original operating systems that came with the device, thus disproving the popular "planned obsolescence" meme. And 4 years old, my 5s is getting full updates.

In other news, windows 10 does not run better on older hardware than the original operating system.

Being confident and delivering a useful product are two different things. Microsoft has been confident about such things in the past. Image editing, though, is done on almost every platform these days. Citing that as an example is meh. Running Sony Vegas Pro editing/resampling a 2 hour 4K video could be impressive.

PCs from the 2006 are not old. They are ancient. The fact that 10 isn't hat much slower than XP is impressive because we all know how iOS 6 performs compared to iOS 9 on ancient hardware

It doesn't stand because when Someone calls something old it's reasonable to assume a 7-8 year time frame and not a 15 year one. Its reaching when one misintreprets on purpose to deflect a point

This thread is getting far of topic to the point of banter. Let's bring it back some.

We already have a solution on that one. The only way to solve issues like these which keep cropping up on every iOS release is to get the latest iPhone. That's the only way and I have learnt that the hard way. Also this phenomenon tends to occur with market leaders in general. Just look at NVIDIA. All their Maxwell cards have been left in the dirt once Pascal came out while the equivalent AMD older cards are outperforming all of them

There is no denying this as oled as a technology is less than perfect, with burn-in and uneven wear on the pixels as problematic.

Is that why so many people keep exchanging iPhones till they get one without yellow tint?
Same as for pink tint I guess.

At least those aren't a given.

Right, and with tens and tens of millions of idevices out there and 20/30 threads, there is nothing that is significant that proves that meme.

Not on my two 5s, iphone 6, iphone 6s, iphone 4 or iphone 7 or 2 ipads.

PCs from the 2006 are not old. They are ancient. The fact that 10 isn't hat much slower than XP is impressive because we all know how iOS 6 performs compared to iOS 9 on ancient hardware
Except that ios 9 has hundreds of new features since ios 6 that benefit me as a user. Windows 10 does not have a proportionally same amount of new features.

Rome wasn't built in a day. The path to true innovation does result in failuresUsing failures as stepping stone we will one day have real Windows running on ARM hardware with no compromises and on varied screen sizes and the day that happens my iPads go in the bin
And Rome fell while Nero was fiddling. Cars have been around for 100 years, it seems enough time to innovate a car big as bus, that sips fuel like Prius, that handles like a Ferrari around the racetrack. But that hasn't happened either. I am really doubtful that "heavy" x86 win32 apps can be emulated with a degree of success.

Too many variables with oled. Burn-in, uneven wear and now pink screen. I've seen some examples of dead pixels, but more example of burn-in on oled. Even in the apple store all those displays that are on max brightness 24x7 are still perfect. That pink tint is a hardware issue, though doesn't give a lot of confidence in the screens.

If the OP is still having issues with Lag and stutters. Try turning off "Reachability" if you havent already. after months of ios 10.x lag I tried turning it off and BOOM...instantly smooth OS animations. Give it a shot. Just shared this info on reddit too for a few users with similar issue. GL

You lose after you use the device for 4 years or so. With an LCD you get dead pixels or a tinted screen out of box

The original thread poster was asking about lags and performance issues on the 6s. Let's get back to that. I noticed bad lags, stutters, and dropped frames while scrolling on 10.0 on my 6s Plus. Many say their performance is fine and don't experience this, many others say they do. So, what's going on? It could be those of us with issues scroll more/faster or are more detailed oriented so things bother us that others might not notice. I've also wondered if it could be related to chipgate - those of us with Samsung vs TSCM chips have slight performance or optimization issues. I know, both chips give the same basic performance and that it's mostly a non-issue. But it makes perfect sense that perhaps one has slightly different thermal characteristics, which causes one to throttle down quicker during load (scrolling) causing dropped frames. This would help to explain why some see this issue badly and others don't. It would be interesting to see, for those that do and do not experience these sorts of performance issues, which chip your 6s has. Mine does have issues, and has a Samsung chip.

I don't have any problems and have the TSCM chip.

I suspect those who have the problems are much heavier users of resources than those that don't. How many open apps - yes they don't use battery but do take memory; how many open tabs in Safari, background updates, etc. There may even be specific apps that use more resources than others - I know there were Facebook apps that ate battery even when not used, etc.
I think use is probably a much more cause than chip but I could be wrong - certainly have been before.

Generally, I don't keep many apps open in the background. I close them out after using. I have background refresh off for all. I do, however, use a lot of Safari tabs. I frequently max it out. Safari is my most used app. Most tabs require reloads when I switch back to them because they have been wiped from memory, but there should be a way to optimize it so background tabs don't have an effect on the open tab while scrolling. I have way fewer reloads of background tabs on iOS 9.3.5, and scrolling within an open tab is very smooth without noticeable lags and frame drops. Not so on 10.0.
