IOS 5 general usage Q

It's running smoothly enough for me, it hans't been noticeably slower at all aside from the Camera App freezing for the first time I attempted to open it.

 

I find it to lag a little bit more than usual, and to be a bit buggy on my 3GS. Might do a clean install on it, idk.

 

i find it not as smooth as the 4.3.3, maybe because it's beta, or maybe it has added features that make the iPhone CPU and Ram bit working hard. you know like when you use 3GS with iOS 3 vs iOS 4.

 

I mean..its tough to get rougher, and buggier, than 4.3.3....

 

I know its prerelease software - so I accept the fact that there will be some issues somewhere. Here's what I found:

Camera App - takes AGES sometimes for the shutter to open, and sometimes not at all.

When switching to video there is noticeable lag there, also the record/stop recording button doesn't always seem to stop recording the video. The count down timer stops but the flashing red button doesn't.

Opening Settings seems to have noticeable lag also. Even if you're switching to it.

Aside from that I'm very happy with the additions to the firmware. I can't wait for the final release of iOS 5 - knowing that all the bugs will be fixed and it'll be nice and speedy on my iPhone 4 again.

Yeah, there is some lag here and there. Nothing has crashed yet. Bugs here and there but for the most part, works really nice. On my iPad, I have had several apps crash, quit frequently. Other than that, it also seems fine.
