try typing in 1 + 2 + 3 in rapid succession (you don't have to be that fast, either). it's not lag but it's unexpected behavior.
Almost feels like it’s due to the blur animation when toggling +. Not sure why they think that everything needs a little animation.
 
From the release notes on bluetooth:

TheCBManagerStatePoweredOffvalueofCBManagerStatenowindicatesboth when Bluetooth is powered off in Settings and when the user has limited Bluetooth in the Control Center for use only by Apple Watch and Apple Pencil. (33226095)​

Interesting. I had thought that pressing the bluetooth icon in the control centre disconnected from current devices but new devices would still connect; now it seems that it disconnects everything (apart from watch and pencil) and it stays like that until you press it again. I have neither a watch or pencil, but I like the concept.

And for WiFi:

Tapping the Wi-Fi button in Control Center now disconnects from the current network and temporarily disables Wi-Fi networking. (32299242)​

Which is odd, as that's what I thought it did in previous betas :)

how is battery life
Why don’t you answer that yourself since you’ve already clearly stated that all iOS device batteries are garbage and made up your mind?
[doublepost=1504216999][/doublepost]A few examples.
battery drain is not going to be fixed

battery is so small how can it be not garbage

if use 4g can not last 2 hours

it is going to be still terrible as apple obsessed with thine

very poor battery life

iPad 5th Gen public beta 7 very poor battery life

True, it was :) the tricky thing with the release notes is they’re cumulative, therefore you’ll see every change made since beta 1. Changes made in later betas will be noted, but don’t stick out in any discernible way from past ones.

Gotta love the "go get your phone checked out" comment. It's not a hardware issue, it's a software issue like everything else that others have been reporting about betas.

Now 3D touch is definitely not as smooth as 10.3.3 and going to the home screen from an app still has a slight delay.
Here’s a thought: perhaps lag on the home button is priority zero for apple, ‘cause the home button is going away anyway. P.s. I have NO 3D Touch issues for any of the betas on my 5s.
 
Okay, let’s call this 3D Touch “lag” what it really is.

It’s a frame rate stutter about 75% into the opening animation. This is for 3D touching on an app.

Pretty sure everyone has that, but some folks may not notice, which is great for them. I’m sure it will be smoothed out by next spring.

Pretty insignificant issue imho as I’ve had many other issues like resprings (including beta 9) and freezing.
Yea, I don’t give a damn about a small lag on a 3D Touch. I want the freaking battery that’s been horrendous through 8 betas to improve.

Battery has been pretty great since beta 7 on my iPhone 7. Seems very inconsistent though with many users as certain apps/processes have not been optimized. I have a feeling that 11.3 is going to be awesome.

All good since DP7 for me too.

Yea, I’m waiting for release to the wild and for everyone to update their apps. I can honesty say this is the worst battery I’ve had on any beta I’ve done. I’ve tested my battery with a few apps and the average is about 96% life left. Maybe once it’s released to the public and all devs have their apps optimized, it will return to normal.
