I think the new iOS 7 Update, is really slick and nice. It looks amazing and has nice photo taking quality.

ios7 UI is the best among the ios ver, simple and the blur effect with transparency is really nice.

but some still stick with ios6 since there is no jailbreak for ios7 yet.

Its a good IOS with a sleek design and has a good layout however it took me so long to download, around 15 hours, whether that is my Ipod being slow or just the IOS itself.

My opinion is that iOS versions get better and better, except 6.x versions.

iOS 7 is purely fantastic

personal opinion it is more of the urge and being up-to-date that makes iphone users download the latest version asap (as soon as it is launched) rather than the urgent need/ usage for it.  said reason i believe is more powerful than the later making ios very, very successful.  who is not a self-confessed updated ios version addict? everyone right?

I really dislike iOS 7. That was my mistake when updated from 6.1.3 to 7.0 :(

Waiting for its update ….

iOS 7 is little bit heavy with the old chip of Apple. From Iphone 4 you can easily update to iOS 7 without any lag or slow effect.

anything below the iphone 4s should try avoid ios7 for as long as possible, applications in the very near future however may explicitly require it so at some stage you may have to update. The original poster mentioned the phone gets slower after updates.

This can be explained simply by the fact that as the operating system gets more mature and new items are added while in some areas resource usage goes down in others areas it simply has to go up so your ios is using far more of the GPU than it had done previously due to the weird and oddball array of effects found in iOS 7

Yah, I still let my ipad on iOS 6.1.3 It works really good.

If you want to update your Apple devices, that means you have to upgrade that device to a new version.

Normally I would agree but not in the case of the iPad 2 – iPad 3, discontinued, iPad 4, discontinued the only two apple are selling right now are the iPad 2 and the iPad Air so the iPad 2 is still very relevant.. until the iPad Air 2 comes out .. then it will likely be killed off.

I think the update will fix all bug or at least make your device better. Which model are you using ?

I never install them instantly as I’ve had an issue in the past where my iPod basically stopped working after I installed the new iOS when it first came out. I now wait a few weeks before doing so.

That was some time ago, your iPad does in fact run the latest version of iOS after extensive testing.. or so your husband told me

Hello everyone. I’ld like to say first I own a iPad minI and a iPhone 4.My Ipad mini is  a first generation iPad mini and I waited almost a year before updaying it. I did this same thing with my iPhone. I do this because it allows the OS time to get the glitches out without messing up my devices. However I have older technology that would have been messed up if the coding was made only for newer models somy skepticism is normal. Those of you whom have Siri on your phones should not need as much caution.
