I figured out why Safari and Mail were stuttering. It was because of the wallpaper I was using. I don't know why this certain wallpaper screws with the performance of the iPhone 7 Plus, but it does. I changed my wallpaper to something else and the issue is resolved.

Funny, I've been using the same wallpaper since I got my iPhone and it wasn't a problem until 10.2.

If anyone wants to try it, here is the wallpaper.

Any of you on T-Mobile? 10.2 caused my home security camera to stop connecting when on lte, I'm wondering if either of the 10.2.1 betas fixed it.

And yesterday was a holiday?? :rolleyes:

We won't see anything until the 3rd, at the least. I wouldn't even expect beta 3. Probably just final release.

This.

Never go beta before the holiday. Any bugs, even severe, will not have a fix deployed until after. Even if it is sitting there fixed right now, nothing until the 3rd at the earliest.

(This is where Apple promptly drops Beta 3 and I have to eat my words lol)

The sound quality did in fact change. I was listening to podcasts on the way home today and it sounded a bit "tinny" like the audio bands were more narrow. It was especially noticeable with just vocals. I also find the notification/system volume is a bit lower than it was before the update.

I had a 30 minute commute home today and had no disconnects. Still too early to tell if the BT issues are fixed though. Although, I'd take them over reduced audio quality.

I noticed this too. Podcasts and music sound anemic. Something is not right.

Bluetooth issues related to random disconnects still happening. Mainly happens after a phone call when music starts back up. It'll play and then stop disconnect and randomly reconnect a minute later. (Already provided feedback).

I've had tons of wifi random drops since 10.2 BETA. At first I thought it was the beta then my FIOS G1100 router not playing nice with my apple products.

I ended up disabling IGMP (after 3 weeks going thru ISP tech support to try to figure out what was causing it) and all of a sudden zero issues. Not sure if the two are entirely related but connections on both 2.4 and 5 have been perfect.

As I said earlier on this thread, all the problems I have with WiFi drops/slow performance is when I have bluetooth on. If it is off, the WiFi speeds are great.

I cannot access my Piper camera. It is DNS problem. I ghink we will have fix only with apps or with 27.2 T-mobile cartier settings.

I'm assuming sound will not get fixed to be louder
Zero sound issues here. My 7Plus is considerably louder than my brother's old 6sPlus and my GF's 7 is noticeably louder than my old 6s.

I keep my 7Plus 3-4 clicks lower than my 6s to get the same loudness.

I'm seeing a lot of this "low sound" but I'm almost convinced its a hardware thing.
