Now that kind of Flame Wars start again. I remember the times where in every Mac Magazine you've found a comparison between Macs and 'PCs' where they did measure the times of flipping Images in Photoshop and were proud when the Mac was 0.5 sec faster than the Windows pendant.

I don't care about those kind of benchmark, because its not really necessary in the daily routine of handling a smartphone.

Can I do some calls? - Fine Can I sync my calendar and contacts? - Fine

If the reaction/ respond time of the GUI is acceptable and without some breaks, I don't care about 1/10 sec in respond time.

Then it doesn't sound like you need a device like the ones they are testing... For heavy users I can assure you touch latency is a big deal.
