Is it just me or does iOS 6 seem faster than iOS 7?

I for one believe the opposite is true

I updated my i5 when iOS 7 first went live with an OTA update and noticed what seemed like an instant increase in the time it took for my Native apps to open most notably my Camera and Mail app

What was your Experience?

Although iOS 7 looks great and works well on my iPhone 5, I think iOS 6 was a bit faster and a bit more responsive.

I think iOS 7 is a little more responsive on my 4S.

I feel like iOS 7 is equally as responsive it's just the animations take a 1/2 second too long. Funny thing is, I can turn them off completely but then the OS seems weird and lacks fluidity. :D

iOS 7 doesn't feel as snappy as iOS 6. Especially when the animations are on. Especially when opening folders.

I'd have to agree with you. It's just not as snappy

I really can't tell the difference. iOS 6 was fast and iOS 7 is fast. I'm good with both. Loving iOS 7 by the way. I know that there were some people that didn't like the new icons and/or the animations. I love all of it.

There hasn't really been a difference that I can notice. I guess it depends on how closely and deep you look into it. My iOS 7 works great, and I don't miss iOS 6 one bit

iOS 7 is definitely way slower on my 32gb iPhone 4.
On ipad 3 and ipad air I'm finding it ok now that I'm finally getting used to it.
