Software pretty much is 1 or 0. I can easily reproduce this issue on every 64-bit iPhone in the world that is running iOS 9.
Got a tip for us?

Sad, but true. I believe people just got dissapointed by the performance update of iOS 9. I bought a new Air (can't purchase Air 2) and it lags a lot. Refutes my point to upgrade, because the performance improvement from iPad 3 is negligible. Few days ago I said "screw it", moved on, and sell the tablet for minimal loss.
Yes, I realize these things are just tools. Thanks for reminding!
Some issues are like that but most aren't. For instance I'm not seeing any off the issues listed under Bugs in the first post on iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s and 6s Plus.
There are a lot of variables that you can't account for when you compare so many different users' phones.
Perfect demonstration of the exact concept I was talking about. Some issues yes, other issues not so much. Once again tons of threads in these very forums prove that all kinds of people babe all kinds off issues that others do not. So clearly it's not 1 or 0, and to say is just to ignore really basic and obvious simple reality.

Actually the opposite is true. By thinking that an iPhone is some organism that does things on its own that can't be controlled is a really non-constructive passive laissez-faire attitude.
If issues can be reproduced, they are real. Simple as that.
I don't have to think or make statements based on what seems should be the case. All kinds of threads full of people with different issues while many others do not have them demonstrate reality well enough that it doesn't even have to be thought about to see it.
Happened to me once. Is the reduce transparency option turned on on your device? I think it is related to that.
So what is it you are saying? People have so many issues with the new iOS that 90% of those issues are not real? Why can't all these issues be real?
So say what you think and then just ignore what others have to say by saying you don't understand it? I guess that's one way of thinking that you are right, when everything else just gets ignored.
Here's the thing.The moment I turn on Reduce Transparency on my Air 2,the thing flies.The stutters I was talking about earlier in the multitasking switcher disappear with the option turned on so clearly the hardware is the problem so there is no way the other users have no issues.They just don't see them
And while people joke about this "Don't see em" aspect it's true.I own a high end gaming PC with dual video cards because anything below 60 dos bothers me enough to shut the thing down.On the other hand there are people who are perfectly fine with 40 fps
They disappear because the blur eye candy that's accelerated by Metal is disabled - hence not causing any issues anymore.
I'm still waiting on that magical video which shows how the iOS9 is smoother and faster then iOS8. We've seen them many on the contrary.
I agree with you. I'm not saying no one has the right to be disappointed.
There was a lot of performance hype surrounding iOS 9 that apparently was not delivered.
I'm disappointed that my new iPhone 6s battery doesn't seem to last as long as my 6 did. It's just one of those things though, it not life changing or crippling in any way.
My response is to all the righteous indignation and sense of entitlement when things aren't perfect, especially when people are looking for problems (this statement is not aimed at you by the way).
Get over it people, it's an electronic device and I guarantee it does everything it's supposed to do, even if there is a millisecond delay once in a while.
Also, thanks for the info about your iPad. I have an iPad 4 and it is not exactly performing at its best. I considered upgrading but now I think I will just keep it for a while longer.
How is that possible when we are on the same hardware?It can't be the software as its a fresh restored phone
We are back to that? Really? It's possible because the reality shows it's possible given all kinds of people having all kinds of different complaints even with freshly restored phones (although in most cases in the real world people don't use empty restored phones) compared to other people. Yes, many things will be there the same for people, but there are also things that can be and sometimes are different for different people. You keep on wanting to know why and how they could be, which is all good an interesting, but what my point is that it can be and often enough is different (whatever the reasoning behind it might be).
(Smiling) Lots of people here never used a PC running an Intel 8086 and DOS. Lag, animation, "buttery smooth"???
You apply the word "hate" indiscriminately to the point you appear to like interjecting that word into discussions where it is not warranted. Try dislike, appalled, dissatisfied, upset.
Personally, I have owned most iPhone models since the 3.
I am appalled at what iOS has become. Hate? No.
One thing of interest about public beta programs; they seldom prove to be effective.
They tend to find a few items however they primarily shift the focus of the "interested" from inquiry/complaint/other products into a sustained focus on the primary product.
Perception: the ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses.
RAD87000 is talking testing hardware/software while you (C DM) are talking about perception.
The two should not be mixed. There is a reason cops prefer not to have multiple witnesses.
No I'm talking about reality. The reality of plenty of threads with people complaining about plenty of things that others clearly do not experience. There's no perception in that, it's right there all laid out. It can be ignored, but that doesn't change the basic reality that clearly people can and do have all kinds of different issues that others do not even when th same hardware and software are involved.
There's no point of beating this dead horse that has been killed and beaten more times that can be counted at this point. My point has been clearly made multiple times over and is supported by simple reality. There's nothing more to add or explain about it--certainly nothing more than already has been done multiple times. If people want to ignore or misunderstand or twist or simply argue for the sake of it, not much more than can be done. Realty is reality, and no matter what people think or want we ultimately still live in reality which is what it is, nothing more and nothing less.
