results
Sure a smartphone with one gigabyte of RAM and not very powerful processor can not run as fast as expensive smartphones. Most applications run for 1.5-2 seconds, heavy applications will start longer (for example, Facebook in 4 seconds, Vkontakte 9 seconds).
The main advantage of the smartphone - a large battery and a long work on a single charge. Another advantage of the smartphone - a good screen and the touchscreen works perfectly. Although not a very high resolution of 1440x720 pixels, even the smallest fonts are displayed perfectly.
