Received the update this morning. RAM usage did drop for me, which is nice but I never ran into RAM issues before. Also, returning to the home screen from an app is a lot smoother now. That is where I saw the "lag" before a lot, which I'm pretty sure was just a framerate issue. The transitions when switching between apps is snappier too.

I am in the UK. A few days ago I downloaded a large update through Kies (it wasn't available directly through the phone).

I am now on Android 4.2.2, build number JDQ39.I9505XXUAMDM. Is this the upgrade you are talking about, or is it a new one?

Nope, It's not the same and MDM lags.

US getting the update first feels a bit strange though, it's usually the other way around so just have to play the waiting game now.

I got my S4, very happy, fast, smooth, no probs. I'd read that a few people had reported lag, but not noticed this.

I then received an update (70mb in size), so I downloaded and installed. Now I have lag city. My S4 is considerably slower. Tapping contacts, messaging, email, camera icon etc. are much, much slow, in fact the whole phone just seems sluggish now.
very disappointed and wish I'd never updated. :(
