I've recently installed the iOS 5 (beta 4), and now I notice that when I use "momentum" scrolling in Safari (swipe and let go), the page scrolling is quite choppy. This doesn't happen when I keep my finger on the screen.

Anyone else experienced this? I understand iOS 5 beta 4 is a beta and all... but still, I wondered. It makes my Safari feel like an Android phone :p .

Nope I haven't noticed this but if it reminds me of android I'm going to through my iPhone at the wall.
 
The scrolling in iOS 5 beta definitely is less fluent. I have tested it on multiple devices. If you don't notice it, you're not paying attention close enough.

Swiping through photos etc. also is less fluent than iOS 4.

I think the word you're looking for is "fluid"
