just bought it last month 4B 4GB version.
this is my 2nd raspberry pi, 1st is the original version, 1st gen.( long2 time ago and sold it)

so far
- kodi still ok when browsing, but lag when the movie still playing. same experience when i use 1st gen
- running raspbian , youtube on chromium still stutter, enable some tweak found on google, now running ok but still got but not so visible.
- when running android 9, lineageos, the display still slow due to some display driver issue, dev already mentioned about this.
- running cpu stress test, temp from 40c(idle) to highest 60c. running with 1 small fan and small heatsink in stack casing type.
im not sure if my expection is too high, already watch few youtube about this 4B before bought it and all review said the fastest raspberry pi.
but after use it, i think still not up to my expection. the performance, the optimization  and the UI should at least equal to mid range android phone.

anyways, its good for tinkering with other stuff.  now my next project, i want it to run pihole and temp, humidity monitoring, just need to buy the sensor 1st.

Have you tried the latest raspbian? The new name is Raspberry Pi OS. Do let me know if the issues still persists as online reviews suggest that it is the better version than the last one.

not yet, will try today. i think the most important for this new OS, is running on 64bit. 1st for raspberry

Great. Do share with us your findings. Hipe you enjoy the latest OS.

As for the 64bit OS, i think at the moment the 64bit version is good to have but not essential as you can still make use of all the available RAM by running multiple processes (e.g running multiple tab on your browser), unless you really need the ability for a single process to use more than 3GB.

Just to be safe, im going to wait for it to be upgraded to release/critical before updating.

Been playing with my RP4 for quite sometime now. Hope the RP5 or at least RP4+ will be released soon enough to spice things up a bit
