I'm not having any issues with the 5. Don't know if it's a 4/4s issue or not.

I'm very much enjoying the new iOS.

It looks like Ios1 on my ipad. All the lovely sharpness of the retina diisplay has gone.

Are you talking about when you're in Safari? And the URL was on the left and the search was on the right?

If so, seems like the functions have been combined. When I go to the URL bar and put spaces between words it goes into automatic internet search mode.

Battery Life is nonexistent. The battery is discharging at a rate of 1% per minute. Yes, full charge to discharged in less than 2 hours. Location Services and Bluetooth are off. Awesome.

I have the 4s and my battery is lasting longer than that but it's still worse than before.

Mine works fine...tried Youtube, ringtones, fox news app, podcasts. Still good sound here.

Overall, I like the new iOS. It's added quite a few things I've been wanting for a while now...it's too bad that most of this stuff has already been in other phones for quite some time.

This is correct.

So far I'm neutral but feeling slightly underwhelmed. The control center is nice. Saving pictures seems to require more steps now.

The colors remind of the new Microsoft Surface style, like a monkey sexually violated my phone with a set of crayons. Other things seem to look like a children's Lego toy.

Some of the new features are "droid-esque" in appearance.

I noticed that the camera flash does not work when the volume up button is used to take a picture.

Seems like they changed stuff for no other reason than to change stuff. I'm not impressed.

Not a big fan of how it looks or some of the needlessly stupid things they added/changed.

But my battery life on my 5 seems to have improved quite a bit.
