Many people have pointed out the same thing about the difference between Android and iOS transitions, animations, etc. Its not that the hardware is incapable, its just that Google (and I'm guessing Microsoft) just doesn;t condier it a priority. My 7500 dollar windows 7 workstation is pretty bad@ss (8 cores, 24GB RAM, 1.5GB Quadra graphics card) but my lowly 27" dual core iMac at home seems snappier when it comes to transitions, window animations, moving things around on screen, etc.
I've been trying to research this, merely out of curiosity, to no avail. I have faith that someone here knows tho...
I mean it might just be my own perception, but it seems that Mac/OSX seems to run so much smoother than Windows. Hardware specs aside that is.
Do macs pump out higher fps? do the screens have a higher refresh rate? I guess these questions seem stupid, but I can't figure it out. So for now, I'll just assume I'm seeing things... lol ![]()
