I bought this phone because I wanted something with killer battery life AND because it's loaded with RAM and processing power.  But after I updated to ICS ( due to issues) I noticed that all the nice animations that I had on the old OS are now gone.  My phone is slow and choppy!  Turning the phone horizontal and vertical causes the orientation to change after about 2 seconds and it doesn't transition smoothly.  it just "pops" into it's new orientation without trying to look smooth while it's doing it.  This is the story with MANY of the featurs on the phone.  The menus are slow and boring.  I bought an expensive phone so that I would not have to deal with "free smart phone" blues.  But look what I got.  I slow, choppy phone that I paid out the nose for. Any suggestions?  Is there any setting that will allow a friendlier looking OS?  This thing just looks like it is out of the 80's.  Sometimes I have to restart it because it responds to touch slowly.  looking at pictures is a painstaking and embarassing feat.  I had to put fireworks as my backdrop so that it would look exciting.  blah.  I should have gone with the galaxy SIII or something.  AM I MISSING SOMETHING???
