Whats it matter, thats not what he asked.

There may be an option or setting you need to enable for it. Have you looked around your settings?
If you aren't a developer or found a file for it on the Internet, it's likely you mean you updated to 6.0.1 in which case you're referring to the wrong software version and shouldn't be seeing the changes anyways
So you have to go under Options and select to get the large Report button and the larger Lock Screen controls???
If not that means he is running 6.0.1 and is NOT a Beta tester.
Happens to matter a lot considering there have been a few people in this thread thinking they are upgrading to 6.1 when in reality they are getting the retail 6.0.1.
Not a developer/beta tester then you don't get 6.1. He was trying to clarify if he was getting the .0.1 update or the .1 update.
They really are moving away from the aqua theme..

You're listening to daughtry and slash together. That's why it SEEMS better. (I love that song.)

That'll probably be one of the last major UI changes. Especially since it's patented. Besides, the point of a lockscreen is to help you unlock it. That's why it's so big. The rest of the design helps make it obvious what to do and which direction to do it.
makes sense but they could at least change the "arrow" part to something more glossy sliverish, the grey looks out of place by now imo
I am not a developer. I got it confused. I downloaded the retail 6.0.1 with the assumption it would have those changes. Sorry guys and gals.
An amazing update offcourse.
One that makes my iphone a few mm thinner, lighter and a bit taller.
If they could archieve that with an ios update, than that would be really revolutionair and phonetastic.
The old one looks way better! There's so much to be done with iOS and this is what Apple spends their time on?
iOS 6.1 is working well on an iPad 2. Currently updating an new iPad, first release. The changes to the lock screen are not significant. It adds a volume control, and spreads the other controls out. Airplay to the right of the volume slider, and Play controls to the left side of the screen.
On my iPad 2, the old bug on the keyboard is still there. I have problems finding the sweet spot for the letter "M".

I found a new feature: adding to the Reading List now has an animation, which flys the link into the reading list icon (like Safari on OS X).
It's intriguing that a x.1 update literally only has a bigger button in maps, a small UI change for music controls on the lock screen, and things like the reading list animation. I wonder if Apple thought these were really the biggest things that needed addressing. And I know it's only the first beta - hopefully subsequent ones have more improvements.

I found an article that explains the full list of features introduced in iOS 6.1.
