@ I don't have geekbench installed on my phone, but I downgraded from ios 18.1, and the phone works extremely well by comparison, and the battery is great
I have an iPhone 15 Pro and I am running iOS 18.1 final release. I have to say 18.1 final release is so good on battery, phone performance, applications, no stuttering or lagging-really seems to be an awesome stable build.
still using my ipad pro 2017. updated to ipados17.7.1 and boom, i can't toggle wifi on and bluetooth keeps cycling between off and unavailable. tried everything and did a reset through finder on mac and nothing has changed. so now i am with an unusable ipad.
I was on iOS 17.7. since came out. It was solid update with good battery life (iPhone 13). When I upgraded to 17.7.1 my battery got worse so I decided to upgrade to iOS 18.1 public release (clean install with full wipe through ipsw file). Battery life is awesome, stutters here and there..
i also did the same but im on 12pm. When i upgraded to 17.7.1 my phone heats up alot until I decided to upgrade it to 18.1 via ipsw file and did a clean flash. Battery life is so good, no heating issues and no lags whatsoever
@ are you sure man? I am still on 17.7.1 and I want to update as well to 18.1. I also thought of doing a fresh install using itunes with a ispw file. Are animations and all smooth on 18.1?
