hmmm, what's wrong with the animations? seems fine to me. š¤ think the op is caught up in all this 120hz hype.
Got a tip for us?

To make what I feel about the animation clear, here's a curve of iOS 14 animations:
In the earlier half, the gradient of this curve much greater, and you can notice stutters sometime during this half;
In the second half, framerate issues are quite common (the animation falls to about 40fps).
The chance of encountering these issues is about 10% according to my own experience.

Theres no way its as high as 40 fps. On my iPad Pro it looks like its 20-25. Perceptible smooth motion is around 30FPS, ultra smooth is 60+. With this stuttering there no way...Id LOVE if it was 40 fps.
I have been noticing tons of skipping/stuttering on my AW Series 5 and iPhone 12 lately too. Its seriously maddening. (yeah thats my problem I know). But still These are new devices, its total BS. Theres something in the code for all the new OS releases that really screwed things up. Lets also not forget Apple TV. I have the 4th Gen from a few years ago. Ever since the last TV OS update its SO hard to select things because of all the skips and pauses when scrolling around.
I can pull out an iPod Touch from 2012 and animations are so smooth in comparison. Goes to show how terrible Apple is at optimization in recent years. But hey they make 5nm chips now

Also Iād like to add that the stutter is pretty much non existent if keeping your finger on the screen while scrolling. Like if you slide your finger on the glass. But when flicking and letting the inertia scroll is when itās most obvious. Could be why some donāt notice. Depends on how you scroll with your finger, sliding vs flicking.
So I guess we are scrolling wrong.

Yes! WE ARE SCROLLING IT WRONG.Also Iād like to add that the stutter is pretty much non existent if keeping your finger on the screen while scrolling. Like if you slide your finger on the glass.

I know you were referring to the pixel 4 instead, but then it canāt maintain true 90hz, especially since the screen brightness has to be at over 75% in order to maintain it otherwise it goes to 60hz (yes there is a way to force the phone to have always on 90hz display but you have to put the phone in developer mode)
that is ridiculous compared to most android phones and pathetic for a flagship Google phone IMO
This is google we're talking about after all, one minute they're selling phones with flagship processors and the next minute š¤¦āāļø one minute they launch a new service and the next minute š¤¦āāļø
what flagship processor?. Google was stupid to put a mid range processor for the pixel 5 and at the same time give it to the pixel 4a 5G, thatās not how it should work
(yes thereās the SE/11 lineup but the SE is different to the 11 lineup, you canāt give the same processor to two different phones with two different numbers after the word pixel like those two phones š¤¦āāļø)
Itās actually a correct decision for them to switch to a mid-range processor since no one would buy any Pixel phone at $999. Everyone knows it would drop to $599 in 3 months.
$999 in Australia šš¤¦āāļøš can get a iPhone 11 for that price which leaves the pixel 5 for dead.
if youāre going to charge that much at least give people a flagship processor.
