Sorry, Steve: iPhone Slower Than Android on Web, Report Says | Epicenter  Android phones whisk users across the web in two-thirds the time that the iPhone takes, according to a study that compared the two top mobile OSes’ performance when downloading web pages.

(See update below for caveats about the study, and Apple’s rebuttal.) The study, conducted by mobile-website–optimization company Blaze.io, involved more than 40,000 downloads of web pages belonging to the Fortune 1000 companies. The iPhone took 52 percent longer than Android to render full web pages. On average, Android phones took 2.1 seconds to render non–mobile-optimized web pages, while the iPhone took 3.2 seconds. Android bested the iPhone on site-loading time a whopping 84 percent of the time. The test included the Samsung Nexus S (Android 2.3), Samsung Galaxy S (Android 2.2), iPhone 4 (iOS 4.3) and iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2). Oddly, the study found that the much-touted JavaScript improvements in the latest versions of Android and the iPhone had little real-world effect on these web pages.
