I’ve had very little issue with any of the betas! Maybe and one or maybe two incidents where graphically some thing went it looked wonky but that’s it!

Battery life on iPhone 7. Looks good, considering 40 percent remaining.
Attached my battery life. Now it’s showing 7 Plus hours with 38% remaining even though lasting the same amount of time as before. Completely bizarre readings here on the usage times. It used to be 5 hours of usage at this time on the previous beta at the same time with the same battery percentage

To err is human, right? Or is iOS developed, maintained and delivered to us by God himself?
I am just saying 11 is worse than 8. I do recognise that bugs will always be there but fixing each one of them on a priority basis is important. My main problems of battery drain and home button delay remain unfixed till now

You really should consider canceling your order and buying into the Android ecosystem. You'll be buying the best hardware, buttons with no lags, heavenly software, and most of all, your peace of mind. In under a thousand dollars.

Both Note 8 and Pixel 2 XL cost the same as iPhone X. 100 bucks less which is nothing at that price point. I actually would have gotten the Pixel but the display issues turned me away.

I’m on a red iPhone 7 and on pb6

No noise as far as I can tell!
 
So mfender. How is this running on your 6? I have the same and apps are so sloooowwww to open on 11.

This beta is running very well after a few days of use. Battery life, smoothness and app performance are great for me, un like the last few betas. Also battey wear level reported in more than one app is higher, more inline with what was reported previously in the 11.1 series.
 
weather widget still not fixed. I don't think Apple will fix it. 57 on the widget 59 when you open it.

I’ve been reading all the complaints about the weather widget. Why not use the free yahoo weather? The widget has been fine through every iOS iteration.
 
Before I update, I clear all of my apps and reboot my phone (not a hard reset). After the update is finished, I open all of my frequently used apps, then reboot my phone again and the leave my phone alone for a good half hour. All this is done while connected to power.

I do the same but reboot after the update before opening my frequently used apps. I never have update issues and have been doing this since iPhone 4.

I agree. I have been using Yahoo Weather myself and it has been great. I like also that it shows images of my city of Indianapolis Indiana. I was, in the past, in the school photography industry for 26 years and really appreciate the great images they provide, not to mention the weather forcasts. Yes, I know, Yahoo mail was hacked, but I don't hold this against them for their great weather app.

Well the battery life for me on my iPhone X is outstanding in comparison to my 7 Plus.

Today I’ve done 2hr 30mins on Personal Hotspot, 1hr 30mins on Waze and then the remainder between WhatsApp, Safari and a few other bits.

Why didn’t this thread get merged with the official 11.2 thread? It’s the same build and there’s more useful info and commentary here.

Maybe to prevent flooding this thread with less useful info and commentary perhaps.
 
This beta has been really good to me. Battery life has definitely improved. :D Everything seems really smooth and snappy for the time being.
[doublepost=1512378398][/doublepost]Just realized the bottom got chopped on those, whoops.
