Marshmallow on Galaxy S6: Scrolling slower, more fluid animations
Some finishes in the code of TouchWiz could deliver more fluid animations on top of the line with the next major upgrade that will bring the firmware to Android 6.0 Marshmallow.
The update to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow is already in development for some time for the highlights at home Samsung: Galaxy S6, and Galaxy S6 edge and Galaxy S6 edge+. Beta tester’s officers to through the code and unearth bugs have already received the first release and are available online the first feedback showing the news that we can expect for the next release of the TouchWiz flagship Korean.
One of the first news jumped to the eye of the community is the speed of scrolling. Scrolling pages on Android has never been perceived as fluid on iOS or Windows Phone, especially since Google has always preferred to mere aesthetic consideration of fluidity convenience of a top speed of scrolling. If the next TouchWiz, it seems that Samsung has focused on a middle ground.
The company has limited the speed of the scrolling within the applications to ensure smooth playback of animations. It is a small compromise that now a direct competitor, the one with the Apple on the back of the device, using virtually always on iOS, where the scroll of the pages has always been fluid with hardware far less interesting than the flagships of competition.
It seems that the Koreans will adopt a similar approach for scrolling pages. A middle ground between the convenience of the infinite scroll typical of Android and the fluidity of granitic those delivered by iOS and Windows Phone. In recent years, Samsung is looking forward to modernize its tremendously TouchWiz, trying to focus primarily on the optimization software to improve performance.
Even these trifles are part of a painstaking work aimed at improving the experience of use of all the days of the devices, but will require a minimum of adaptation and some gesture more to get at the end of the page. To specify that the news may not be available in the official release of the operating system, with Samsung that could eliminate it based on feedback received from users designated to the test.
