With control panel and notifications included in iOS 7, I'm curious as to what tweaks you're finding useful?
Are you sure? There's generally a very very faint spinner present for about 10 or so seconds as it is shutting down.
I have an idea for a killer app - a battery status indicator that is at least 75% accurate! Us iPhone 5 users are dying to see such innovation!
You realize one doesn't relate to the other. People can still get the so called "premium" experience with just 16 GB or even 8 GB of storage--it all depends on what they need the space for, and there are plenty that don't need tons of useless apps or tons of music or tons of videos or tons of pictures, just some of some of them is more than enough for them. Bringing camera or something like that into it, is an apples vs. oranges comparison at best, and even that's a stretch, completely different things.

Most actually have it on their phones by default.

Amazing supporting information that you provide there.
The 16GB iPhone 5S is £423 plus VAT, which is ~$711. Fairly close to the $649 US retail price before tax. You see the same old crap on here time and time again with people comparing UK prices to US prices but they never take the VAT off.
While I turn it off after every update as well, it's quite far from being annoying, let alone "so" annoying. It's just one extremely trivial thing to do after an update that doesn't happen all that often at all. I'm not saying it's great or even good, but it's also not horrible or so annoying.
Keyboard seems way more responsive and easier to type correctly on. Maybe autocorrect better? I don't know but I can say that I can type way faster now with correct words instead of having to fix typos as I usually do. Almost seems more like Swiftkey.
On a side note, I lost my 30+ days of "uptime" since it had to reboot to apply this update.
I guess that means I have not had to reboot since 7.1 was installed. I usually do once in a while just because.

I guess that means I have not had to reboot since 7.1 was installed. I usually do once in a while just because.I ended up taking my 5s back after the last update killed my Touch ID. I think I will wait to see what "improvements" they implement this time around ...
Plenty of stability, performance, and security improvements, all worth more than any visual changes or new end-user features, especially given how generally underperforming and less stable the 7.0.x releases have been.
Has it? I don't really recall it happening much until iOS 7 or perhaps some latter iOS 6 updates.
"You're not holding your phone right."
After pressing the Home button to turn your phone on, you need to not tough the button for about a second before you touch it to read your fingerprint. Implementing that pause has resulted in a 100% read for me. Good luck.
Touch ID started to fail after the update previous to 7.1 was released. Before that, I had no problem with it. Then 7.1 fixed it and now 7.1.1 made it even better.
I don't see the point in returning a device just because of a firmware bug, not that the problem is going to be permanent.
Yeah, I just saw them... You beat me to it
I have a feeling that there's more to come before the day ends...
Hosed my iPad
OTA update hosed my iPad 3. It went into recovery mode after restarting. Got it plugged into iTunes now doing a restore. Yay.
I suggest not upgrading unless you are near your computer, in case you need to do a restore, too.

How many seeds did 7.1 go through. Apple may as well skip the seeding and go straight through to the release - sloppiness all around if there's a fix just days after a major update.
Apple should just stick to hardware and contract out the software BECAUSE it appears the 3 people working on it can't do the job.

That's not really how software releases work. Plus this isn't "just days after".
