Just had a chance to run iOS 7 on an iPhone 5. I hope in the final release version, they will add a magic button to minimise/disable unnecessary animations. They're taking too long at the moment 
Got a tip for us?

iPhone iOS 7 animations

Yes, it's buried in lots of other threads. That's why it warrants one of its own, if the OP wants it.
I'm not directing this at anyone in particular, but I don't know why so many people around here complain about new threads being made if the topic has been discussed already somewhere else. So what? Do they charge by the thread around here?
On topic, I like the new animations. It'll be great if they speed them up, but I won't mind much if they don't.
I genuinely love each iOS 7 animation, (like a mother loves her children
well, no) but I wouldn't mind if they were all sped up quite a bit.
I have to believe by the time iOS 7 ships they will be. IMO iOS 7 is quite different than previous betas because of how much they did in a short amount of time. I think Apple rushed to have a beta ready by WWDC, and these early betas in some ways are more alpha than beta.

Perhaps. Apple has given users options on animations in the past. Example, the "Genie Effect" on minimizing apps into the Dock of OS X. You can choose that or the plain effect.
Well they gave those options in OS X, but i highly doubt they will do so in iOS as they always wanted to keep it as simple as possible.
In the past they always kept animations and productivity in balance and I'm optimistic that it's going to be good.
I dig the animations but they need to either speed them up or speed up the touch responsiveness. Currently one has to wait for the animation to finish to interact with the touch screen.
You're almost certainly right. The betas seem to be about bug fixes, optimization, and providing access to developers. My major issues are cosmetic, and as we learned a little while ago, even Apple is scrambling to address cosmetic issues. I'm sure the GM will be great.
Doesn't seem like this is really burried in some threads that are specifically and exactly about the same thing, like https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1611268/.
They already have a fairly long ongoing discussion, which will end up simply being redone all over for no reason in duplicate threads like this one.
