Incredible how much this update stutters.... on my iPhone 6 especially. I’ll tell you one thing Tim, I will not buy a new iPhone because your update screwed up my phone!!!! I will however consider buying one if you fix this.

My iPad Pro stutters too but not as much. Steve will turn over in his grave!!!!

Bar older device from updates if you can’t make it work properly. I will rather run my phone on an older rom than have the latest one but breaks it.

I wouldn’t say Apple did a tremendous job. While I have no performance issues, I have location issues on the iPad Pro. Still, it has been a dodgy release. Stupid me diving straight in. It works well on the iPhone 7.
 
My iPhone 6 and iPad Pro both have stuttering issues. Given the range of performance, it doesn’t seem to be hardware related.

I just think that if there is anything Apple devices differ from the rest is they are fast, responsive and buttery smooth. That’s why I left windows, don’t consider android and pay a substantial premium.
 
Minor stuttering (we’re talking very minor) on my iPhone 7 Plus when using 3D Touch. Otherwise, the phone runs smooth. No faster or no slower than iOS 10.3 overall. It’s perfect on my iPad Pro 10.5 so far.
 
Stutters sometimes especially when exiting a app(safari etc.) or going into the multi task page. iPhone 7 too, clean install.
 
I tried the Smart Invert colors feature after watching a few videos on it, and it’s still not a viable dark theme for the phone because no websites utilize the proper dark theme. And more on point, I noticed it caused my phone to lag a little more.

Yes, that lags a lot!

seen some minor stutters, my bigger concern is I've had to hard reboot my 6s about 10 times since updating to iOS 11 due to screen locking up. That is about 10 more lockups than I ever had with 10.3.3

Wow really? That makes me feel better, not that iPhone 8 users have the issue per se, but that it is likely a software bug. I didn’t think iOS 11 would be taxing the A10 chip anytime soon.

It isn’t taxing the A10, or the A9 in the SE. These are phones that can last 4 or 5 years in performance. Even more if planned obsolescence wasn’t a thing...

Well my main point is that the animations were slow on the iPhone 8 too, how does that prove planned obsolescence? I think you may not be following, lol
 
It’s a disgrace. A brand new iPhone or any new flagship for that matter should not lag whatsoever in 2017. There is no excuse for it. Apple’s quality control dips more and more every year. Did we hear about iPhones stuttering with the 4, 4s and 5? No. It’s the iOS 7 redesign that Apple decided to do in 2013 that f*cked everything up. Now the cracks are really starting to show. Unless Fortsall comes back then expect more of this. The fact that the day has come where Android is now smoother than iOS (which I never thought I’d see) speaks volumes.

Another observation apps open longer particularly messaging. We’re taking windows 7 or something slow here...
 
I got my hands on an iPhone 8 and even with that phone it stutters from time to time.

True that since beta 1 to GM iOS 11 the iOS 11 got much better performance, but still feel that it is not fluid yet and it should remain beta a longer time, maybe until Beta 12 or something.
