According to the Make Use Of website, this trick is good if your phone has 4GB RAM of even just 2GB of memory data.
The site advises turning up some scales on your Android device to give the illusion of a quicker speed.
The scales all relate to the animation speeds on your smartphone.
Changing these can be slightly different on each Android device but every user will need to head to Settings to start.
The speed settings in question can usually be found under System and then Developer options.
You may need to scroll to find the right ones.
You should be looking for “Window animation scale”, “Transition animation scale”, and “Animator duration scale”.
These settings are usually set a 1x speed.
You can try changing them to 1.5x speed for a faster-feeling phone.
The good news is if you don’t like how it changes your device you can always turn the settings back to normal via the same method.
To check your specific Settings route for tricks you can visit your device manufacturer’s support site.
Google also has lots of its own tips and tricks on its Android website.
