I am getting ready to buy a tablet, and over the past couple of days got to try the Galaxy Tab 2, Transformer Prime, Transformer Pad TF300 and the Acer Iconia A300 (I think). All had ICS.
While I liked a lot of what I saw, one thing really disappointed me. All of them were choppy and laggy in transitions. Scrolling screens were choppy and laggy, app opening/closing was likewise and even typing had an intermittent choppy lag. I remember this behavior from my prior attempts at a tablet, which were Honeycomb tablets (Xoom and Galaxy Tab). Back then this caused me to finally return the device and give up in hopes that ICS would fix it.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there some way to optimize ICS to smooth it out? I am not inclined to get a tablet with this sort of experience - much as I despise Apple at least iOS on the iPad is buttery smooth and doesn't lag.
