On your suggestion I tried it on my phone (4.1.2). The rendering improved, but speed is still an issue. Scrolling with big images is jerky.

However, I have not yet optimized images or CSS. I'll probably spend next week looking into optimizations for ionic.

Take a look at this blog post on improving scroll performance. https://nolanlawson.s3.amazonaws.com/www/ionic_list_perf/ind... The biggest trick is to use CSS and pseudo elements instead of actual DOM elements and bindonce wherever possible. Performant scrolling on older Android will always be tricky, even on native.
