man they aren't minor annoyances they affect everyday use lags and slow downs meaning take more time to do basic stuffs which is very annoying and a big disaster whatsoever no fix yet !While this statement may be true for a few I believe the majority of folks who the haters call Apple defenders really just don't see a .5 second delay or a frame drop in an animation as an "end of the world, totally unusable" situation. Most of these complaints while they may exist, are simply minor annoyances but certainly don't qualify as an "unusable device". For example I have the weather widget not working 99% of the time but while I would like it to work like it used to, it doesn't mean my device is unusable. And I am sure at some point it will be fixed. The 3D touch menu stutter was fixed finally and again it wasn't that big a deal as far as using the device.
HA you really have to ask that question from that user?
10.3.3 works the smoothest for me. I kept my iPad Pro 9.7 on it to compare to my iPhone 7 Plus on 11.1.1. It's a joke how smoothly my iPad runs. I'm not moving my iPhone to 11.1.2 either because it seems like it's a crap shoot.
I'll either regret it and be stuck, or it'll work okay and I won't have issues. If it's the first one, I'll be forced back into running beta hoping it'll "Fix" issues. I'm trying to make sure this device still connects to my car to stream music, if Apple breaks that... I have zero reason to keep an iPhone at all now.

lol as you can see for yourself lucky y'all using the newest iphone having serious issues on the newest doesn't speak well so this doesn't count
[doublepost=1511595588][/doublepost]current Poll results says 30% voted "just bad" and 30% voted "very good" meaning ios 11 must be good
for some people and at the same time bad for some people & i'm guessing "very good" must be the users of the newest iphones
Just under 25% voted "just bad" and an almost similar percentage voted "very good". Not sure where 30 comes from. It also appears that the opposite of very good would be the very bad option, rather than the just bad option. Not quote the apples to apples comparison.
The poll is a little off stating iOS experience since launch then how its running on your device (assuming currently). Overall experience iOS 11.0-11.0.3 wasn't that great. Currently its running great on my device. (11.2) So vote is on current state but not really reflective on overall experience as title suggests.
It's at 25% right now for "just bad". Confusing numbers of people with percentages (which is what appears to be going on) isn't a good sign when it comes to interpreting data and drawing conclusions.
I meant votes rather my bad mistaken votes for percentage !

34 votes just bad to 33 votes very good
The more equivalent comparison would be between very bad and very good, which puts it at 11 vs. 33.
But 8 is supposedly not optimized when it comes to iOS 11, so it shouldn't play thst much of a role, right? Or does it then conveniently matter when it would help with the narrative?
Battery life is still twice that of the 7. It has the home button delay so its not fully optimised.
But then if that's how things are designed to be in iOS 11 then it's optimized for it since there is no delay for iPhone 8 given that it doesn't run anything before iOS 11. Can the spin be any more obvious?
The solid state home button it uses is capable of the same speed the iPhone 7 Plus's home button had on iOS 10. Thtas been done intentionally to show iPhone X gestures are faster.
I guess that answers the question about how much more obvious the spin can be.
We've already had a 60+ page thread get closed because of all the rehashed silliness, seems like it would be best not to subvert other ones to go down the same path.

For me iOS 11 isn’t that laggy (I’m currently using SE) but battery life is not that great compare to iOS 10 and in other aspects it’s look like they’ve slipping in quality in this version.
Maybe because it’s support so many phone so they don’t have much time to test it.

On the latest beta, and before everyone jumps all over me yes I understand what beta means and what comes with it.
The latest issue points to TERRIBLE memory management, multiple times through out the day my phone goes into this state where everything will freeze and then close down. It'll do this for at least 20mins and then magically goes back to normal. I also closed out all of the apps, issue persists.
At first I thought it was poorly coded apps, but when the SETTINGS application freezes and crashes as well it's leading me to believe this issue is happening much further down the stack. It's been happening periodically all through out the beta's include GM, i even ditched the beta profile and same thing.
I am on a 6s but recently it's gotten much worse and it's driving me crazy. Last option is to take it to apple and see if it's a hardware issue. I've beta'd all of the recent IOS's and have never seen one this bad.

Could be a hardware issue, could be you need to restore your device as new. Your experience is abnormal and unique.
My 7+ is on 11.1.2 as is my work SE. My iPad is on the latest beta. I can’t think of a single issue I’ve had, everything seems to work as it should
