Who else feels like its a rip off version of android and is laggy?
 
Mine seems very fast - 13% adoption after less than 12 hours... LOL
 
Been updating for an hour or so. Not sure why I bothered since I'm getting the 5S on Friday lol
 
That gold one seems nice, all gold everything
 
Yeah it does. T Booth only had one 16GB 5S left unspoken for, and it's the dark grey, so they put my name on it, but if they get any gold ones in tomorrow or Friday, I will switch to that. Although, when I got my 4S, I got white, just to be different, and I ended up putting it in a black case anyway, so who knows what I would put a gold one in.
 
I'm sure at some stores, but I doubt it will be pandemonium, like, say, Grand Theft Auto 5 being released lol. I may be "sheep", but I'm tired of 3G and a smaller screen. I like the iphone, so I have no trouble (or shame) in getting the 5S. Especially since the trade in I'm getting on the 4S is $15 less than the purchase price of the new one. Plus my new plan is a lot better than my old one (2GB data instead of one, voice mail, which I don't have, unlimited air time day or night for $5 more per month).
 
Not loving it...

Functionality is good enough really not crazy about the look... Kinda toyish like an Android phone...


Not really sure why they needed to re work the look sooooo much

Those look like lemming-sheep to me. Lol

uograding took about 30 min for my ipad and 20 for my phone. I like the new look and feel, it's cleaner and crisper. I like the new app selection interface. Haven't tried the airdrop on phone or ipad yet.

I did notice one major hiccup. For both devices, when is rebooted the restart reverted to my old Apple ID account ID. It was an email that I no longer use (old work email that I no longer have access to). This was odd because it's the same account, but just a new ID. I wonder if apples databases are old.

So I couldn't log into iCloud. I had to manually delete and reconnect to my current iCloud ID.
 
iOS 7 is is a greatly needed iOS overhaul I like it a lot I tried to instal it on Wednesday as soon as it came out but I ran in to countless error messages along the way finally got it on later that day around three it's kinda funny when the screen goes black and the apple logo appears is when I start to panic oh is it going to work lol of course it it's not a android

I putted it on my iPad 2 my iPad 3 and my iPhone 5 there is a slight difference between the iPad 2 and the iPad 3 and iPhone 5 in the iOS airdrop is not available on the iPad 2 and on the 4s with cause it doesn't have the 5 ghz Wireless N connectivity but other than that no big deal

Apparently on Wednesday the update crashed a few university and college servers with all the student web traffic for the update
 
I have a iPhone 5 and fine with the way it works...but having lemming like tendencies have been considering the update to iOS7...so this is an interesting thread for my deliberations.
Is the new system/screen radically different? Is it a big learning curve for us tech neanderthals to master the new screen (saw something about repositioning functions and up/down swiping)................and finally, what that hell is airdrop and should I care?
Thanks fellow apple cultists. :)

I usually fear that with every IOS update, Apple does something to slow down the older phones to make us buy the new model, but I have a 4S and the phone feels snappier now. Yes it is radically different, I like it a lot, feels like I have a brand new phone. I had the same issue reported above where my old apple ID appeared but that's no big deal. Lots of new features that I'm just discovering, a few that I've found are: many options at the lock screen such as portrait locking, changing modes, much snappier email, picture filters, better calendar, nicer colour palette, all new icons, cleaner graphics for the apps that updated for the new IOS.
 
All companies rip each other off and Samsung is the king of it. IMO "innovation" is highly over-rated these days. All that successful companies like Apple, Samsung, Google, etc. are doing is taking abandoned or acquired ideas or competitor's ideas, slapping on a new coat of paint and trying to gain share. Be thankful for that otherwise we'd still be using beige boxes for PC's.

Something that's really irritating is certain apps requiring hardware features (e.g. front facing camera) being present on your device to even install the app. So if you want the app, you pretty much have to upgrade or jailbreak the device.
 
Not impressed - and you can call me a lemming fanboi if you want to. It is slow and buggy. And on mine Safari does not respond to keyboard or touch commands for 30 seconds or so. Thank god that is the only app that does that... am now using Chrome.
