new animation when scrolling the messages in iMessage. It's like the space between them expend when scrolling and then goes back to normal when stop
That's been there since B1

Siri's female voice is now more like it was at the preview at WWDC. Sounds much more natural than she did in beta 2
The design of OS X has evolved as it has changed over time but iOS 7 versus iOS 6 introduces a number of breaking changes in the UI design. That is not evolution but rather throwing out the baby with the bath water. Flat UIs make it harder to see what you are doing.Design evolves. What was appropriate 30 years ago probably isn't appropriate today. Skeuomorphism is always present in some instance, but doesn't need to be ramped up to having a felt-poker-table texture in gamecenter or leathery headers in calendar/address book.

It's a larger space bar. They added a '.' key which can be held down for the .com, .net, etc
I think you young whippersnappers need a history lesson on UI design at Apple.
Why do you think new users have such a hard time with Metro?
You can turn the parallax effect off in Accessibility if there is a battery drain there.First off, alow me to apologize for my ignorance of stuff like this or if it's been mentioned previously in another thread.
I'm intrigued by the live wallpaper option coming up. However, I'm plagued with very poor battery life already. I'm not a dev and am willing to wait till the fall for iOS7.
I'm wondering if the processor work to animate the live wallpapers will degrade battery life further or if the change will be negligible. Anyone? Bueller?
I predict that iOS 7 is going to be the Vista of Apple.
I hate the icons. They look like something out of an unpopular jailbreak theme. No class at all. Jony Ive needs to go back to working on hardware and then need to hire someone who understand software usability.
I really don't care if you guys think that skeuomorphism is not chic or hip anymore. It lends itself toward usability because user interfaces are for the "user", not the hipster wannabe designer. Usability sometimes requires a few compromises for a designers "vision".
Even these icons use skeuomorphism because without it, you would not recognize which is the phone icon.
See this article on what it is any why it can be useful.

That design philosophy is context sensitive where the look and feel is suited to the context. The current design language in iOS 7 is not context sensitive. It is harder to use for new users and is really boring visually IMHO.
calendar has dots when viewing month view
new symbols in music app
clock displays in lock screen when playing music

I have no reason to drop iOS 7 Beta now.
IMO that happens in iOS 6 too.Saying "Goodbye" to Siri closes Siri.
