Yesterday, we told you about Android 2.2 spanking iOS in websites featuring Javascript. Today it’s a real world test of sites that aren’t packed with Javascript to see how the two competitors stack up.

So out of the 3 of the 5 sites tested were basically a tie, with the iPhone loading Engadget faster, while the Nexus One loading NYT faster. But what would the results be if Flash were turned off? Check the 2nd video out:

Turning off flash enabled the Nexus one to load 4/5 sites faster than the iPhone (if just by a few seconds) while BBC news still was a tie between the two devices.

So there you have it, even with Flash, Froyo is just as fast, if not faster than Safari on iOS4.
