I picked up the Lumia 900 yesterday, and indeed, am overall happy with it despite a few flaws. This afternoon I thought I would take a closer look and compare it to my Focus S. I would have to say that for the most part while I can't say exactly that the Focus S is a faster phone, it "feels" snappier and smoother. Not just for scrolling either, I mean within apps as well the Focus S just seemed quicker.
Then I decided to compare the browser speeds. Keep in mind this was just for giggles.
On WiFi I went to the IE Test drive site and ran through several of the tests. For things like the fish tank and whatnot they were pretty close, give or take a fPS, but then I tried the "Speed Reading" test...
Needless to say the Focus S was done before you could say "GO!". Something like 2 Sec, while the Lumia 900 was always in the 24 to 25 sec range. Not sure if its a setting or something else, but I was shocked. I currently do not have a Titan to try out to see how it does.
Glad to see that the Focus S is still a boss though!
