iOS 7.1 beta 5 is rock solid

I've noticed a slight drop in battery life on beta 5, on both my 5s and iPad Air. Nothing too bad (no huge draining or anything) just noticing the battery percentage when I plug my phone in at the end of the day is a bit less than it was on previous beta's and 7.0.4.
Nohting silly about complaining when a $500 flagship device can't even load more than two tabs simultaneously.
Disappearing contacts
I noticed a bug where new contacts added to the phone keep getting deleted. Anyone else notice this?

Dang it. I really want Apple to get it right this time but I'm about ready to throw my rMini into a snow drift if Safari crashes again.
Agreed; I'm fairly confident we'll see iOS 7.1 beta 6 on Tuesday and possibly a seventh beta on March 4th unless they resolve several outstanding critical bugs (currently in beta 5) in beta 6.

It's been pretty good for me, apart from on my iPhone 5S, when I unlock, i get a 20-30 freeze when going into an app or folder. after that, it's fine until i lock again.
Well, on my iPhone 5 that is one year old most of the time I have 7-8 tabs opened and they are always open. I face crashes on chrome but never faced on Safari.
I don't see the battery improvement infact I say it's worse. And I usually don't complain about battery.
People seem to jump to conclusions after an hour of using it. I've always had the best battery life on 7.0.4, and that's doing clean installs.
Nope, been running it for the last 2 weeks. It's as good as it's ever been. iPhone 4s.
Let me rephrase that: Some people jump to conclusions after an hour of use. Mostly people with the 5/5s. It seems like 7.1 has been optimized for the 4 and 4s better than 7.0.4 was.
Its nearly there, I've had a few glitches here and there. Today my 5s decided it didn't want to remember any of my Twitter/Facebook/iCloud password and prompt me for them one after the other

Yep include email accounts with those as well when ever it happens. Only like twice or so for me since b5. Maybe its a new security "feature"

Same here, it's really annoying. Happenes all the time on both my 4S and iPad 4 both on beta 5
Weird, haven't had that happen on any iOS 7.1 betas or 7.0 releases or betas either (as far as I can recall at least).Yep include email accounts with those as well when ever it happens. Only like twice or so for me since b5. Maybe its a new security "feature"
