Perhaps its because I'm a photographer (and used to working with pure tones more than the average person) but the colors don't really bug me. Not after using the betas for the last month or so
Well, I just downloaded and installed IOS7 on my iPad 4 and for the brief period of time I've been using it, I'm pretty much blown away. I purposely avoided too much exposure to the OS in order for it to be somewhat of a surprise, and I must say it worked! It looks so clean and modern, and it also seems to run faster then did IOS 7.
Unfortunately, based on what I've read, I should not expect nearly the same experience with my iPhone 4 so I'll most likely be avoiding it. I would really like to have the ability to block certain messages and phone calls though, so I'm still tempted. This is also making me tempted to get the iPhone 5S which I'm sure was Apple's intention to begin with. Very clever, Bond.

after much trying both iPads are now preparing update. hopefully this is it.
iPhone looks good. bit different. need to get used to. but overall I like it.
just wish the colours were a bit less "acid" hard to describe.
Oh yeah, you guys are right, it was the added channels. I did count that as an update. Okay thanks.
When you plug your phone into your computer, iTunes will ask you if you want to download and upgrade or just download. After that, you can do a clean restore. I'm doing the same.

Yes same here, went out of software Update and back in and SU offered to install (not download and install). had to go round this loop a few times before it went past the verifying phase
I can't even get my iPhone to recognize that there is a update. Go to general-software update, and all it does is sit there saying checking for update for the last 10 minutes...You guys are lucky! So I guess I will just have to download the iTunes 11.1 and then do it from my iTunes instead of OTA.
Goodbye screen is not apple feature, you will get it on your samsung
LOL, I will never get it on my Samsung because I will never buy a Samsung.
Wow, I don't like the new look, although I'm sure I'll get used to it. IMO it is visually 'cheap' compared to iOS6.
The moving icon effect is odd and jittery looking. I'm using a iP4S so maybe that's why. I have a custom background so I'll give a stock background a try.
Also there seems to be a noticeable operational lag.

I suspect there is at least an order of magnitude difference between iOS users and Google Nexus owners.
I got it downloaded, but it will not pass "Verifying Update". It keeps saying that the Software Update is not available. I'll wait a while then try again.
But are we really comparing rolling out an update for MAYBE 5 million phones versus the HUNDREDS of millions of iOS devices out there?
People need to get a grip. It'll take some time, get over it. Go back to work.
You can't update from beta builds to the final release. You'll need to restore the device via iTunes.
neither do iLOL, I will never get it on my Samsung because I will never buy a Samsung.
I believe so but if it wasn't supported it wouldn't show up as available for download in Software update.
My iTunes doesn't have the download (still says 6.1.3), but the update is available on software update on the device. Check your device software update if iTunes is not showing it for you.
Also, when is the jailbreak coming out?
People are still jail breaking.... why?
Does anyone even know what "preparing update" even means? I've got this far and its just taking years. What is it even doing?
Finally got it installed. Now im stuck at your iphone could not be activated because the apple servers could not be reached. Anyone else having this problem? Kinda stupid my phone needs to be activated for a new os considering i did a ****ing year ago. Keeping me without my main source of contact is not something that should happen apple. Get your head from your ass.
