Why are the Galaxy S phones so smooth?

[Droidcola]

These phones seem to be the most touch responsive and the best for multi-touch. Why is this? Is this due to the hardware or do the different versions of Android / UI's play a role in this? For example, when the Evo gets updated to 2.2 does it have the potential to be more touch responsive than it is now or is touch sensitivity a hardware only thing?

Its a culmination of hardware. They have different digitizers and processors than other android phones.

So even with Froyo on all phones, Galaxy S will still feel and scroll more responsive than the rest?

We'll see. N1 is choppy on froyo

Not my N1.
Not choppy at all.
Maybe you have some rogue app sucking cycles?

Thought it was because of the SuperAMOLED screen? I thought I read somewhere that it was more responsive. Possibly do to the touch sensor being integrated into the screen?
