I have some Android devices and some of them are quite powerful (like Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 which has Exynos 5420). But writing comments on news sites like Engadget, CNET, Huffington Post or virtually ALL sites is really painful on Android devices. I have tried every browsers like the built-in Samsung browser, FireFox, Chrome, or Opera, and both the desktop and the mobile versions of those sites, and the situation was always the same.
The problems I am having are
- On many sites, tying itself is slow. Characters appear after some delay.
- Actually the whole page on containing comment is slow, unresponsive.
- Moving insertion cursor within the comment input box does not work well. In some cases, it moves to a weird location on its own.
- When pressed the back button to hide the keyboard (I mostly use my tablets on landscape mode, and in that mode, keyboard takes so much space, I cannot see other things like the submit button), if the focus is not properly placed on the input box, the browser goes back to the previous page and I lose all text input.
The only workaround I am using is typing the comment in another text editor app and then copy-and-pasting it. Even on my old laptop with Core 2 Duo 8400 CPU, writing comment is not painful.
So, is the situation the same for all Android users? If so, how are you dealing with those problems? Are there any tips? If not, what kind of Android devices do you use? I think Exynos 5420 is still pretty much one of the most powerful CPU.
