Already posted my virews on it last night. Dont put it on your day phone

Yeah I seen your post but now it's almost a full day later I wanted a more comprehensive review. I haven't even seen much in terms of in depth videos online. I've a feeling they're uploading over today. Checked earlier and couldn't get much. Love to have a spare device to try it on.

It'll be interesting to see how secure the new re-activation feature is. If it's as good as it sounds, then thieves will have far harder time shifting stolen iPhones. Their only option will be to sell them for spare parts.

What's the story with stolen phones at the moment? Am i right in thinking the thieves get around the blocking by the networks after it is reported stolen by shipping them abroad where the blocking doesn't work? Is that right?

So lets just say your not a Dev and you download iOS 7 and install it on your phone. Then when beta 2 comes around and the first beta expires what happens then? Is it as easy as an over the air update?

guil

Love the fact that they added the feature to block contact from certain contacts, its in settings in phone, messages and facetime

That's where I got mine from and not one will work (even though one of my iPhones IS registered).

Running well on my 5. Only issue is the panoramic wallpapers won't load.

Running well on my iPhone 5, have not tried every app but all the usuals are working fine for me....Twitter, Messages, Mail, App Store, FaceTime, Photos. The more I use me phone the more I appreciate this update, very very slick & smooth.

Love this feature too, have a telesales number that keeps ringing me....so I added the number into my contacts & they are on the Block List.

Does that block feature give you notification that it's working ?

Gorilla Rising

Installed it just now. Straight forward, no problems.

I really like the new icons!

Great addition, the mentioned iMessage and FaceTime, but not phone in the keynote, delighted that is across everything.

So just updated my iPhone 5 bill pay on O2 using the link guil provided and worked no problem at all. Has actually made some apps that I found slow at loading to load quicker.
The file took just over an hour to download using chrome on 12mb line. Started slow and sped up as progressed. With iPhone connected to iTunes, just held down tab and clicked software update, then selected the file from download folder. Update process took about 10 mins.
Found I needed to cancel down the apps that were running in the backround for some to open ie Netflix. Loving it so far, now time to play!
Cancelling down apps just reminded me of web os hp had on the palm pre and touchpad

Jelly SMS not working for me, anyone else had this problem? Seems a little sluggish too, although I'm on iPhone 4 and this was becoming the case with iOS 6 also. An annoying bug surfaced earlier too whereby I had to quit an app to answer a call. Though I'm liking it for the most part these might be the deal breakers for switching back to iOS 6 for now until it becomes more stable (and I upgrade my phone).

Some of the development team who worked on web os now work for Apple.

So tempted to try the new update. Think ill give it a go.

EDIT: Currently downloading from Mega. On UPC 30MB and it's pretty fast. Getting an estimate of around 10 minutes for the download to complete. Weird that people are finding it slow. I'm forced to use Chrome too.

First 24 hours probably had most people downloading it. So maybe it's all quiet now. iPhone 5 currently updating to iOS 7.
