Has iOS 6 slowed down your 4S?

[unity04]

I know when Apple released iOS 4 it slowed down the 3G, and people were saying iOS 5 slowed down the 3GS + the 4 slightly. For those who have installed the beta of iOS 6 on their 4S, have you noticed any slow downs on the phone, or does it seem faster? I ask because I'm wondering whether or not Apple will make this update slow the 4S down so people go out and buy the 5 when it comes out.

Thanks.

It seemed the same to me so far I mean it's only beta 1 but I didn't notice any lag or anything .. Then again in my opinion the changes from 5 to 6 are more minor than 4 to 5

Safari is much faster for me. However being in beta, sometimes debugging is enabled, which increases overhead.

Mine seems to be running pretty quick, been a smooth expierence so far!

Safari is noticeably faster. A lot faster. Whether on 3G or Wifi.

Mine is very fast still no slowdown or lag at all and as mentioned by others safari is lightning.

Much quicker than it was before on both wifi and 3G

iOS 6 Beta 1 on my iPhone 4S seems to run just as quickly as iOS 5. And, as everyone else has pointed out, Safari is fast. I mean, FAST. If you install iOS 6 now you will not want iOS 5 back just because of Safari's speed. Trust me...haha.

Same as it was, except as a lot have stated, the browser is quite a bit faster.

Glad safari speed has improved it was pretty slow in IOS5.

My email (using Exchange) has slowed significantly. All else is fine.

Safari is way faster for me, however music skips like a dirty cd often!

everything is running fast for me, email I have no problems with, the only time I have experienced a slow down was while in the app store and that is most likely because of the on going changes being made right now.

Safari is fast for me. Getting search results on the App Store is pretty slow though. Thank goodness for Facebook integration because using the app is a nightmare.

Mine has not slowed down at all, mind you i've installed fresh and not from backup. I noticed boot up time is a lot quicker as well.

the slowest part of iOS6 beta 1 on my 4S is the music player... sometimes slow to skip tracks... everything else seems equal or faster to iOS 5... Safari as others have mentioned feels noticeably faster, but could just be how it's loading content... overall, pretty stable for a 1st beta...

 

[dominirican]

Launching apps seems slower but skipping songs is the worst

Generally, my 4S is running as smoothly as it did under 5.1.1

Totally agree... I have no issues at all..

Please note that iOS 6 is in beta. We shouldn't base our decision on software that has bugs and hence the beta tag is applied in order for all the beta users to report them.

Whether or not it's faster than iOS 5, we have to wait and see until its official release.

the more i use ios6 on my 4S... the slower it seems to be getting... with jb 4.1 running pretty smooth on my gnex... might put the iphone on the shelf for a while...
