> When you combine Cordova with Ionic you can create write-once apps that deploy to any device and have a native look and feel.

Ionic hardly feels "native", especially since it is based on AngularJs which is dog slow to begin with. Stop overselling Ionic.

It feels fairly native actually, there are cases where you can tell, but given the benefits, it's usually worth it.

The ionic team did a great job of optimizing css, and managing routes/screen animations to follow the expectations on different platforms.

Angular is slow, but it's not that slow. It's fine for most apps. Stop underselling ionic.
