So Google sells off Moto to laveno and now Moto is dead. Whoa is me.

ANYWAYs

I have had Moto phones since the original droid but there has always been one problem. I do not use anything stock accept G-Maps. So on this phone i run ...

LAUNCHER:
Apex, Go and in the past Launcher pro… Strictly Apex for the last 2 years. None of these are ever ran at the same time.

SMS:
Handcent ONLY

Calendar:
Calengoo and Jorte… Calengoo won so its all i use now.

DIALER:
DW Contacts only … Tried GoDialer but wasn't as free flowing for how i use the phone. DW won

MISC:
paypal here
wellsfargo
podio
volume control

ALL of the moto phones i have had have started lagging after 6-8 months. So i am just use to waiting 10 second for maps and 5-15 secs for DW and so on.
I am not looking for an answer as to why my phone lags but i do have a theory that i would like to validate.

THEORY:
The heavier the overlay the worse the lag when using custom apps like Apex or DW. So i would expect HTC Sense to give me the most problems, TouchWiz a close second and LG would be at the bottom. I think that the easiest phone to run these apps on would be a Nexus 5 or 6 because its stock android.

Is this a sound Theory?
