My main issue with Android as a daily driver for desktop computing is the input latency. Even in high end devices, it's noticeable when typing and very noticeable for things like Alt-Tab and other desktop shortcuts. I wonder if this is fixable or if this is inherent to Android's architecture.

I noticed on lesser devices that their word-wrapping algorithm is very very slow, so inputting a large block of text in a native Android text box got slower and slower and slower and slower.
