I noticed today on my mom's s8 her onscreen homescreen isn't responsive and other on screen buttons next to homescreen laggy would a pixel phone be more responsive and better for home screen etc within apps? On stock android?
What do you mean by the homescreen not being responsive? Does it respond to touch at all, or is it just laggy? Does it persist in Safe Mode? https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-34283
