Well, I removed encryption on my son's phone and kept it on mine. We ran AnTuTu Benchmark and they were nearly the same. He was around 51,000, and I was around 50,000. We then closed everything, and opened different things simultaneously. Camera, photo gallery, phone, Chrome, etc. No visible difference between the two phones. I don't think encryption is actually slowing the phone down. There is a post on XDA where someone did a large number of different bench marks, and he also saw no real difference. If anything, he found the numbers to be slightly better on the encrypted phone. Not worth removing encryption and either missing OTA updates because you're rooted, or having to setup the phone again each time if the update forces encryption again. At least not IMHO....
So the phone is just slower than its predecessor?
