It looks worse in person.

There's a new equaliser animation next to now playing when viewing your songs in list (see La La La).

If you 'Share' a location from the Apple Maps app, and send it in a Message, the message appears as a speech bubble containing a mini-map that links to the Maps app:

Maybe this was in iOS 6, in which case... check out the new look! Unless it's already been shown, in which case... here it is again!
 
The email delete animation is really slow. When I left-slide an email and hit "Trash," the animation takes like 2 seconds as the email slides off the screen, whereas in beta 1 and ios 6, it was much faster.
 
Siri

In Siri, when it brings up an article based on what you asked, you can say "Read this" and s/he will start reading it. And that's without any accessibility options turned on.

I'd have to check if that was in iOS 6, but either way, that's pretty cool.
 
I've got a question for anyone on iOS 7.

I keep reading previews of the OS, in which they compare the redone Mail app to Mailbox (the popular third party app) on the grounds that it supposedly uses swipe gestures like Mailbox does.

Where? I've been looking at screenshots and descriptions, and it doesn't look like it works anything like Mailbox. When you swipe, it doesn't actually delete, archive, or move your mail, rather, all it does is display a "Trash" button that you then have to press. That's exactly how iOS 6 Mail worked, except the button looked different and it was called "Delete" instead of "Trash".

So what's with all these comments about Mail being gesture based? The only difference I'm noticing from iOS 6 is the addition of a "More" button, but that's still a button, not a gesture. How is it anything like Mailbox?

Is my description incorrect? Could someone clear this up? Thanks.

You nailed it.

It's behavior Apple's had in iOS for a long time (from the beginning?) but it's being expanded to to include the "More" button

Yep. Exactly what Knosrac said. The new Mail app has the same gestures as the previous version. However, it has a Mailbox-ish look to it, with the cleaner lines and bigger buttons. Other than that, nothing.
 
I didnt notice anyone else mention this but you can now pinch to zoom to open and close pictures in the photo app.

It's been mentioned before... Also why would I do with two fingers what I can do with just 1 (pinching vs tapping) is beyond me... lol...
 
I haven't seen this noticed but the iTunes Store icon has changed between beta 1 and beta 2.

Personally, this was my only major issue with the icon redesign and glad to see some optical considerations have been taken into account. It also shows that this element of the UI is certainly not finished yet which should please some...

I'm not sure they changed it...
