PocketNow posted a video comparing iPhone 3GS with iPhone OS 4, Nexus One with Android 2.2 and HTC HD2. The video is comparing browser speeds in various situations. The results show a clear issue when Adobe Flash plugin is enabled on the Nexus One phone. Not only the speed of loading pages in slow but also scrolling on pages is not smooth. Also, it looks like Adobe Flash plugin takes way too many resources causing the device to display Memory Low warnings. On pages without Flash, or when the Adobe Flash plugin is not enabled, Nexus One with Android 2.2 is definitely faster from the other browsers. Safari on the iPhone will get a boost with the introduction of the next generation iPhone in a few days. Next generation iPhone is expected to include the same A4 processor found in iPad. The battle between Apple and Adobe is well documented with Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs calling Adobe “lazy” in working to fix performance of Flash in mobile devices. In addition, in his public letter explaining why Apple is restricting Adobe Flash in iPhone OS 4, Jobs said that Adobe Flash performs poorly. “We have routinely asked Adobe to show us Flash performing well on a mobile device, any mobile device, for a few years now. We have never seen it,” Jobs said.
