[QUOTE="Xavier, post: 1767455, member: 39854"] Not entirely true. My ZTE Blade runs JB smoother than it ran on ICS. It's a 512MB RAM+WVGA resolution device. Agreed that it has an ancient GPU which doesn't use the same amount of RAM as the Mali 400 does, but the fact is that JB, even 4.2.1 is smoother on it than ICS was. Although I do agree that JB is more intensive on resources for vsync and triple buffering. Again, this doesn't tell the entire picture. The reason why the GS3 and Transformer Prime struggled with Jelly Bean initially was because of Samsung (Exynos) and NVIDIA's refusal to provide open source drivers for their chipsets. Once Samsung released its official JB update, Project Butter was fully implemented. My S2 initially handled JB like crap because of the lack of proprietary drivers, however developers later implemented open source versions of the same drivers, thus bringing the S2 at the same level of a GNex in terms of UI smoothness.
