I don't disagree. I am certainly frustrated every time my phone feel sluggish, which is several times a day.
On the other hand, I've been frustrated with the slowness of computers for a long time. CPU speed, RAM, disk, everything has gotten way better. But I'm still just about as irritated, and I suspect that things are just about as sluggish.

I hope this changes, but I'm not holding my breath.
