iOS 5

Comments

  • Did the iPhone 4 last night, and it feels slower... Nervous about doing the iPad now.
  • Done both our iPhones and my iPad and after a few glitches loving it, seems a bit better/faster on my iPhone 3GS than iOS 4 was but it maybe placebo effect. Overall a worthwhile upgrade considering it was free.
    Loving iCloud, adjust one item and other is effected...never miss an appointment again ....yeh right!

    I am on my 8th attempt at downloading the software, at this stage the phone is close to being thrown in the lake beside the house :evil:

    Moving to android as soon as the nexus prime is released.

    Download the ROM and then restore it manually.

    As for Android, go for it. You'll find the grass isn't always greener. If you like millions of buttons and poor usability then you'll love it.

    Not to mention owning an ugly phone and getting treated like a 2nd class citizen by the maker of the phone.

    The problem with iOS5 updates is due to everyone downloading at the same time. Having enough capacity is always going to be difficult.

    Right enough, my galaxy has 3 buttons, that's millions isn't it? As for poor usability, it does everything I want, when I want. Not sure how it could get less poor.

    As for second class citizens, I'd rather be a free second class citizen than a prisoner in the oh-so-lovely Apple walled garden :wink:

    Can you write bloody hell on an Android phone though? I bet you can't.

    Updated my 3GS last night

    What a fankle though, took ages, had to leave it running overnight, got up this morning and the phone had been completely wiped

    Fortunately I had synced it before updating so then had to reinstall everything from scratch (another 1 hour and 15 minutes)

    Running fine now and nothing lost - phew

    one or 2 useful new features

    Next time, I'll wait a few days before updating :wink:
