update to ios 15.5 with ipsw, and it seems to me a worse version than ios 15.4.1.
the modem has worse reception than 15.4.1, which can translate into higher battery consumption by forcing the phone more. For example, on the first floor of my house, I had always had 3 stable lines, with 15.5 I have two, and it goes down to one, unstable for worse.
on the other hand, booting is about 5-7 seconds slower. in 15.4.1, with a 1 second press on the boot button it was enough to start the phone, now I need between 5 and 7 for it to boot. what i said in the speculation thread, apple would break something to make sense of a possible ios 15.6, and here i experience two reasons for it. Unless the public release is a newer build that fixes everything, or at least the modem issue, which is a potentially important problem.

Another interesting thing: the feedback app is still present. Doesn’t it usually disappear on an RC?
Weird...appears to be gone for me on both iOS and iPadOS. Beta profile is still installed.
You don’t need to keep pressing the side button to start your iPhone. It might take a few seconds for the Apple logo to appear but you can let go after clicking once.
And your reasoning for an update being something deliberately broken doesn’t make sense at all. More work requires more money and you’re not being charged extra for any updates. I don’t think you comprehend how complex OS’ are these days and how software development works. Chances are anytime you’re adding to the code you might introduce a bug somewhere else as there are features like Siri that run on multiple layers and not as a standalone program. Your frustration is reasonable but your expectations aren’t inline with reality.
EDIT: Weirdly enough I’ve had more problems with IPSW updates than OTAs during the 15.4 beta cycle. More overnight battery drain for one. So I’m sticking to OTAs for now.
No feedback app on my phone. I don' have the beta profile installed.
Mine’s gone after RC update as it should. I did OTA if it helps.
Weird, the feedback app is still present in the RC on my phone.
Not present here!! OTA if that matters!!
13 ProMax
OTA from B4
Issues at Install
1. Refused to acknowledge AirPods Pro were in ear. Forget and reinstall APP fixed
2. Animations seem slower - perception?
3. Have run into a couple of apps that are now broken - updates likely needed
So far so good - crossing fingers.

Most likely the same as what will be released next week - go for it!
This is where people, especially power users, come to discuss problems. Probably very atypical of the experience with the phone and software generally.
And now it is gone. Where I saw it was in a Siri suggestion widget. Perhaps that was a carryover from my phone usage before upgrading to 15.5 RC.
Those of you who have seen the feedback app in the release candidate, did you see it in a Siri suggestion widget as well?
Done. No problems. Felt quite quick.
Network reset and a hard restart and see how this puppy purs while I sleep.
Night geeks. 😜😘
Each phone model has a different version of the same build. So bugs can exists on an IP12 that a 13 or 13 Pro Max might not have.
And this forum is also a place to share the bugs and help each other in situations.
I’ve just noticed that the final release has been a build or two higher sometimes.
I'm not 100% sure but it seems to me that it happens when Apple is launching new devices a major new feature. When they don't have that like in 15.5, then it seems RC is the same as public. Either way, your choice and just trying to give some info as you seem like you want to update now.
iCloud Tabs still not working. Anyone else?
