Sony Xperia Z vs Samsung ATIV S - Boot time

[WP8Expert]

Hi wpcentral community,

I had a Sony Xperia Z and a Samsung ATIV S and I decided to do a boot test between these devices.

Even with the Xperia Z's quad-core processor and 2GB of RAM, the ATIV S managed to slide by this one by less than a second

WP8 runs directly on the kernel. Android runs the dalvik vm between the GUI and the kernel. Android applications also build the exe as the application is run. This is why android require such high spec handsets to run smoothly, and with little or no lag..

Just curious, could you shorten your signature...that thing is way too long!

And I thought mine was long. Also, great video comparison.
Twice as fast processor doesn't guarantee twice as fast boot time!

To be fair, boot time isn't a big deal. Most smartphone users (esp. really nice ones) leave their phones on all the time.
