My 7 Plus is even smoother than before so logically the 5s should be too
@keysofanxiety. I figured you would be perfect for giving insight on your 10.3 update with your 5S on this thread.
Yeah she's running much snappier little buddy. Very happy with the performance.
OP, I wouldn't hesitate to update!
Did you do OTA update or through iTunes?
.ipa file is over 2 GB, so cosidering doing OTA which is 600 MB, but would like to know because of APFS.. that's a big change.

Some tend to think their iPhone 5s can't run efficiently on iOS 10 and stay 9.3.5, who are afraid to update it! Clearly they don't know what they're talking about.
I have a spare iPhone 5 and installed the update and it runs smooth on there. So a 5S should have absolutely no trouble.
I wasn't referring to you in that post. How is your iPhone performing on 10.2.1?
I think 10.3 has been a positive update thus far on all three of my iPhones.

Early reports are still showing the battery life is still stable and not really being affected too badly yet. I guess time will tell.

this is what my iPhone 5S is running on, totally love this version of ios (notification center, control center even slide to unlock feature which is removed on ios 10)Sadly i can't downgrade my other iPhones to this version
After you jailbreak your iPhone 5s, are you going to give it to your son?
I bet he would really like having an iPhone. I know I would. Let Me know how the jailbreak goes.

I know what I'm talking about. iPhone 5s with iOS 10 has some lags in Notification Center, widget center and so on. It's slower opening app and in some animations. iOS 9 is better, iOS 8 way better. You can't think a new iOS is faster in older device. Is usable but not fast!!
