The speed of the Windows 10 UI has always been poor. Granted on brand new hardware, it seems smooth enough (but power will always mask these things).
Every PC I installed it on, the user complained it wasn't as fast as Windows 8.
On an Atom powered tablet the tile interface is jerky (something that was never true of Win8).
On a Lenovo Core i7 Yoga 2 Pro, again the UI is jerky (when Win8 was buttery smooth).
The actual performance (not just graphical) of Windows 10 has always been slower on my desktop than Windows 8 was.
Apple learnt years ago that it's very important to have a super smooth UI, which gives the impression of performance to the user (even when it might not be the fastest).
Recently MS tackled a graphical glitch in the UI when you resized windows but the performance is still not smooth.
It seems to be that Windows 10 Mobile is also not as smooth as Windows Phone 8.
What's going on?
Will Neon be a comprehensive overhaul of the graphical performance of the UI or just a facelift?
