The thing that most Apple fans enjoy about Apple's products is the form factor and the user experience. When you get an Apple product, you're almost guaranteed that it will run as smoothly as when you bought it for its entire lifetime. The hardware is made to run the OS in it. Not so much the case with an Android phone, where customization, while being a really nice touch, can and most likely will in most cases end up hindering the phone's performance.

 

I can confirm that is not true. I've never seen an iPad/iPhone/iTouch that hasn't slowed down considerably over time.

You should try my brother's 2 iPhones his family uses (a 3GS and a 4S).

It might have something to with low free space remaining. Well, I still have around 500 MB but for some reason it lags when doing basic tasks and changing between programs.

I have the same problem with my XPeria... And there's still lots of space, so it's not for the same reason.   It doesn't run nearly as smooth as when it was brand new. :(

Yet my bro's 2 iPhones run really well, even though they're pack full of music and apps. It's not even comparable. I even tried to remove most of the crap that was filling mine, except for the music and it still lags quite a bit at times.  

I do wonder what people do to their phones that causes this. I've heard people complain about it with both Android phones and iPhones but never experienced myself (Xperia) and frequently get messages that I'm low on space. Do you use an app killer to periodically close stuff that's taking up background resources?
