I don't think having high expectations are the problem, but part of it is the fact that there are little OCD tendencies in some individuals. Because none of these actual 'problems' so-to-speak translate to no real world benefit, Apple probably doesn't fix it. For example, problems like spotlight lag or control centre lag is quite evident and can be noticed by anyone. However, apps having a 0.25 second delay is not noticed by everyone, and really doesn't really translate to any real world benefit.
I meant the lag in Whatsapp that i was experiencing (keyboard lags that I was not having on iMessage)
Confirmed: Touch ID in beta 5 very responsive now; no slowdown and delay so far. Performance and animation seems a hair smoother too!
My experience with beta 5 is great. Only problem is I get 8-10 hours of usage on my 6+ and seems like most of the people here gets 12-15 hours of usage. Thats actually a problem since ios 9 beta 2
thats not a "problem", thats ur usage on a device thats probably got some age on its battery too since u said 6+ not 6s+
Taught me something new
if your getting lag with apps that are not perinstalled. Then pretty sure this is due to the app needing updating.
better video not too dark or to light as was pointed outlast night!!!
Every time you opened an app, the first part of the animation is completely missing and it sort of pops into place. It makes it look sped up, when in actuality, the animation lagged for the first dozen frames completely skipping over them and showing you only the end of the animation.
That's horrible.
Thank god I don't see that horrible-ness. Looks smooth sailing to me! 9.1 come faster!!!!
Could be because it was recorded through QuickTime as a screen video. It's fine when not plugged in like that.

Yes but your battery is been through charge cycles and it normally drains. Battery cannot stay good forever. And also, everyone's usage differs. Your 8-10 is within Apple's quoted time so you're good. But if you're not happy go into Apple and they will run a battery diagnostic
Can't please everyone with a new iOS. But I'm very happy with it. Yes the video do's like a bit **** and tbh I think that's because of QuickTime. As last nights video (even though lighting was not perfect) did show everything running smooth and stutter/lag free.
Perhaps it's visually displeasing or even annoying, but it's ways off from horrible.
The only thing that annoys me is the scrolling stutter that creeps in from time to time in Safari, Mail, Messages, Recents (in Phone). Sometimes when you swipe to scroll and leave it to slow down on its own you see clear "jumps" and stutters.
Other than that, it's good on my 6.
It's QuickTime without a doubt. I can't be bothered to make another as
yeah but it's hardly worth it. Think everyone is forgetting we running a beta atm so this is to be expected as its not the final bake. Obviously once iOS 9.1 is out then fair enough it's an issue but at mo no. Also I think half of the people are using this on their daily drive which is why a lot are noticing it so much going over it with a fine magnifying glass.
To be fair mate, scrolling stutter was a common complaint on this forum and others from 9.0 through to 9.0.2.
Is this new? If I had a Bluetooth headset in my ear prior to this beta, and I said e.g., "Hey Siri, Call Vanessa" to my new iPhone 6s Plus (NOT via the headset, but to the phone itself), the iPhone 6s Plus would say, "Calling Vanessa on speaker" and I'd have to manually switch to the Bluetooth headset.
With 9.1 BETA 5, it now calls on Bluetooth if the headset is in my ear/on, and it just says, "Calling Vanessa."
A positive change, since it drove me a little crazy having to switch to the headset after using this feature.
