Video: Comparison – Nokia N9 vs Nokia Lumia 800 – Speed and Lag test

| November 21, 2011 | 214 Replies

After the speed comparison on the Samsung Omnia 7 and Nokia Lumia 800, there was a request for comparison against the N9.

Here’s Edward to give you the details in a 3 minute 40 second video.

Edward points out that Nokia Lumia 800 just has no lag though there is a little bit on the N9.

  • Scrolling in home view
  • Scrolling in app shop view
  • Scrolling in browser

Don’t fret. The N9 is still obviously a fantastic phone. What Ed’s doing is possibly just an extreme, but just to highlight again the speed/fluidity of Windows Phone. As you noted in the last video (and I hope to show more myself) that the older 1GHz phones are slower, though only really slower in comparison to new WP Mango such as Lumia.

N9 or Lumia 800? Either way, you have a very awesome phone.

    This usage scenario of swiping your finger up and down as fast as you can totally ruins my phone’s UI, and my phone is not even touchscreen… XP

    (What is that guy doing with his phones?)

    I’m guessing the phone’s UI is not optimized for that kind of scrolling. In normal usage however, I never feel any lag, unless it’s loading something in background. It’s all about user experience, and the user experience of N9 is great.

    In addition to UI responsiveness, also battery drain should be considered. How about a test where you scroll for 1 hour and see how much battery has been drained?
    Maybe the harmattan UI isn’t running with as high Hz as WP7, to save battery, while maintaining better battery life?

      Err… what I mean by the last sentence:
      “Maybe the harmattan UI isn’t running with as high Hz as WP7, to save battery, while maintaining decent responsiveness for the average use pattern?”
