Currently have 20 apps open. Still snappy as can be. Love this beast.

I must say though. I'm rooted. And I have disabled/uninstalled a few things.

Bye bye complainer.

Let's take a phone back before a possible future update comes out. For all we know TouchWiz might get smoother once andriod 5.0 comes out.

My Note 4 has zero lag whatsoever. If your schedule is so tight that a half second lag is going to throw your day off, you may need to evaluate your schedule.

At least the title of the thread should be changed to alert folks this was a smartphone in demo mode. Most every forum I browse or reviews I have read pretty much all state lag on this beast is very small if there is any at all. And that is exactly the case for my Note 4.

More than likely those who complain are just trolls who are looking to discredit Samsung and/or Android and are in love with Apple.

Went to best buy for a week and played with the Note 4 every day just to make sure it was the device I wanted, NO LAG. Received my T-Mobile Note 4 on 10/13 and have had numerous apps open at one time, NO LAG. This device does not lag!!!

I love those that complain. Poor iOS people. So sad.

I've never owned an Apple product in my life. I had the HTC One M8 prior to the Note 4. I'm switching to the Xperia Z3 at the end of October. Keep on ASSuming.

Wow....that was really interesting. Really points out some of the decisions developers, designers, carriers what have make that one by one just rob your device of functionality for features that you would give up in a minute when the tradeoff is functionality.

I have the Note 4 from T-Mo, even after the update it still lags. After pressing the home button it takes 2-3 sec's for the screen to wake-up. Video's freeze when playing Youtube and on the native video app. The battery isn't that great either, this Note 4 is going back to the store.

You sure you have a Note 4? Because it sounds like you bought a a potato instead of a Note 4. I have no lag on TW at all. The screen wakes up 2-3 milliseconds after pressing the home button. Videos do not freeze on the You Tube app or native video app. And the battery life is nothing short of kickass.

I did have lag on my Note 4. It was especially noticeable in Hangouts and scrolling thru Web pages. It was especially noticeable when I would be trying to do things very quickly. The UI just wasn't keeping up.

Why am I stating this in the past tense? Because I returned it (an at&t version--and not for this reason) and bought a T-Mobile version and I must say there is a noticeable difference. Granted I just got the T-Mobile version yesterday but wow, there is no lag in this one at all.

I've experienced 0 lag with my device. Turning off the S-Voice "always" as the video above showed snapped things right up, too.
