iOS updates tend to chug on older phones, so a phone that ran iOS 4 really fast is laggy on iOS 7.
That's because the only reason why iOS runs so well is because Apple make a ridiculous amount of optimisations to the software so it can reallllllyyy smooth on hardware that isn't exactly technically powerful (the 5S has a triple-core CPU apparently). Once they start prioritising for the newer hardware, they won't have as much time to optimise for older hardware, thus the new software runs slower on old hardware. WP on the other hand.....I don't know how they do it. Black magic. My mate's Lumia 800 still runs smooth as butter on WP7.8
