On iOS 7 onwards I tend to accept the slight reduction in visual flair for the increased speed that this offered. How do the notifications and general OS look with this enabled in iOS10? Opinions any screenshots etc would be appreciated!

I think it looks like crap.

*edit* to be clear, I think reduce transparency looks like crap. I like the blur effect.

Never disable it even on A5 iPad mini and A4 iPhone 4.
I am a lover of Aero Glass effect on Windows 7.

Since iOS 10 I have lag when opening apps. If I switch on reduce transparency it's gone. Am I the only one?

I used to reduce transparency on my 4s for performance but I don't see the need on the 6s - it's part of the user experience, the design philosophy and looks really lovely.

Looks as ugly as ever, but I have to enable it on 6s plus. Faster animations with beta 4 yes, but frame skips are more obvious and I can't stand them.
