Even back then. I discovered on my Galaxy S3 (2011/2013?) that you have to buy some softwre from them, to edit the boot animations in their own proprietary format (a novum back then). Then they got Knox and stuff. Their entire bootchain is now a custom proprietary hackjob.

















Nah. It only stopped lagging, because the hardware got faster. Each hardware generation it got a bit better, after 2015 or so.
