People who hate it are either nerds who take offense to their portrayal or people who don't understand technology terminology. Im convinced you're a true nerd.

Which character do you like? Sheldon Cooper?

By the way, using mouse to navigating iOS (iOS simulator) feels lot better than my fat finger.
 
Small update! Clearly it's getting very close to being finished and as perfect as it can be before they thrust it into the hands of consumers! Can't wait for iOS 7 and the next iPhone! Bring on September!
 
How many betas do we have to go through before people realize the icons aren't changing?
 
Just when you think you've got Apple figured out they throw a curveball that surprises everyone.

Keep the updates coming. Can't wait till iOS 7 comes out.

I've been feeling really lathargic towards Apple lately, hopefully this will give me new hope. My eyes have been wandering....

^ This, keep peering at other devices, computers etc but my heart lies with Apple so I'm just hoping iOS 7 is the breath of fresh air I seriously need after all my years of loyalty.
 
Nothing extremely noticeable on iPad 3. The lockscreen alternates between showing the date and the battery status if the iPad is charging. Not sure if that's new.

Found a bug though. I just pinched to close an app on my iPad, and now I'm just stuck looking at the live wallpaper. Home button does nothing. I can turn the screen on and off, but it just goes back to the wallpaper - no lockscreen. Eventually went back to my app, minus the status bar. the app didn't respond. Had to force reset.
 
I notice the touchscreen edges are much more responsive. Previously on Beta 4, at the bottom of the Twitter app for example, there was noticeable lag between tapping and action. Good stuff.
 
Unless my phone has simultaneously had a dying battery (which is entirely possible. I've been having various issues with it, including a dead camera), ios7 has made my phone 5 virtually unuseable. With beta4, my phone is now lasting roughly 2 hours with light to medium usage. My battery percentage will display 40%, then the phone will die and show the battery dead icon. I plug it in, it goes right back on, and twenty minutes later will read 80% battery. Hopefully this fixes it.
 
Notifications has a grab bar now.
