hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech & iOS 12.4 beta 4 has been on my XR for
the past few days and I've been using it primarily as my main device now
currently I don't have my sim card in it and that is because I switched from this
phone to the XS Max today with iOS 13 so we're going to cover twelve point
four beta four and iOS 13 and beta two and when it should come out and what we
should see a little bit differently hopefully and iOS twelve point four beta
four was something I wasn't going to cover as far as a follow-up but quite a
few of you responded to the YouTube community poll and wanted to see it an
update so I figured I could at least talk about it a little bit so for me as
far as it being stable I think it's pretty stable I had my sim card in it
all week like I said and that's because I've been away from home and if you saw
some of the videos with the updates that's why I was at a pool and things
like that so if you haven't seen those check them out and I'll be outside
sometimes from time to time doing videos but that's why now as far as settings
some people were saying that was freezing up I've still had no issues
with this which is great no slowdowns no problems in fact I've had no problems
with iOS twelve point four beta four at all no freezing no apps locking up
nothing crashing and in fact I've had a really good Wi-Fi and LTE signal so I've
had no issues with that now I don't have my SIM card in here because it's in this
phone now but I've had no issues no problems whatsoever so whatever they've
done seems to have really helped me at least on this phone as far as battery
life is concerned I'd say it's about the same as beta 3 which was okay for me so
this phone has a hundred percent battery health I do switch between phones so
that does help a little bit but if we go over the last ten days you'll see it
looks pretty low here but if we go to this one seven hours seven hours four
hours this is 10 this was plugged in so that doesn't really count but it's been
pretty good so seven hours screen on time 15 minutes screen off time and
that's with about 20 percent battery life left at the end of the day so it's
pretty good overall I would say I have no issues with it whatsoever
and we'll talk more about what you had to say about 12.4 beta 4 and iOS 13 in a
moment so I just hit low-power mode on this have been using it all day and
battery life is not so great on it for me and also it's incredibly buggy
there's apps I can't use the things like that I'm really looking forward to iOS
13 beta 2 and that should be on the 17th based on previous years when iOS 12 and
11 came out with their Vedas so probably the 17th that could be pushed to the
18th but probably the 17th and then a couple weeks later July 1st July 15th
and it may speed up after that but normally that's how Apple does it and I
would expect the public beta either the first or the 15th I'd be very surprised
if they pushed it that late but the public beta will be in July according to
Apple if they hold true to what they said at their keynote now other than
that iOS 12.4 beta 4 is kind of odd because I had a build number that ended
in the letter D which means we're a few betas out from the letter A which
usually signifies we're getting close to a final release so there may be a couple
more and that's really just holding off for apple cart I think at this point so
it could be sometime in July or it could even be next week we don't really know
apples kind of mysterious with iOS 12.4 and it's kind of strange because it
seems mostly done now with beta 2 I would expect a little bit more stability
hopefully a little bit better battery life battery life for me today anyway
now this has been plugged in as well a little bit today but battery life for me
today hasn't been well hasn't been great so 2 hours and 18 minutes and it's just
not been a great experience but I do like iOS 13 and what it has to bring to
us as far as features and changes and things like that now if we take a look
at the youtube community poll now this poll has 6,800 votes and I really was
not anticipating making this video but 37 percent of you wanted to see a 12
point 4 beta 4 video along with another 2% so 39% 32% of you said no or 13% said
I'm on 3rd iOS 13 and 15% said I use Android so there was quite a few
different things you had to say down here as well
but it's great because you covered both iOS 13 and 12.4 beta 4 so I read through
all of these different comments and a lot of them are just what device you're
using so that's good but we don't know exactly if there's anything going on
with it so nothing new only got a new modem and no battery or modem number and
battery is okay so that's pretty good again I said iOS 12.4 beta 4 is nothing
really exciting but it seems to be pretty stable see here we on iOS 13 out
here man going through the rough times that's for sure if you're using it I
have heard some people having a great experience but most people I talked to
say it's awful and they've tried to refer back please do the follow up with
old devices oh I meant to mention this earlier with iOS 13 running on the 6s
plus it seems to be pretty good in fact it's quite fast if I go into music
you'll see it opens quickly we're gonna for you go to library it's pretty quick
to go between different apps and I'm surprised how quick it is quite honestly
so you'll see it loads a little bit slower but it's quite an old device
compared to the XS Max but speed and everything seems fine so to talk more
about older devices right now they seem to be right on par with the newer
devices so other than features in that weird
issue other than features it's they seem fine iOS 7 all of the supported iOS 13
devices along with iOS 12 devices and I will cover more of those in future
videos but I just want to let you know there's not a whole lot to talk about
it's the same experience that we're having here just had seven point nine
point one update on my airport extreme what's different that's more of a bug
fixed security issue Apple's not making those devices anymore so I was quite
surprised to see an update for it quite honestly iPhone 7 works a lot faster now
on iOS 12 point 4 beta 4 and that's another reason I go through these polls
is it helps you understand what other people's experiences with the different
phones so I can't possibly use all of them equally so it's better to do it
through the poll I think so that we can have more of a fair overview of what's
going on for everybody so you'll see for me beta
for is quite fine not not really spectacular feels very similar to to
12.3 really looking forward iOS 13 in September probably jumping on the public
beta in July I'd love to learn more about iOS 12.4 beta 4 performance on the
XR it's fine looks great works great for me and the
modem seems to be working fine so no issues with connectivity for me
currently using iOS 12-point 3.1 on the XS Max would you recommend updating the
public beta of iOS 13 normally what I tell people is if you have to ask that
question if you're not willing to deal with bugs I never recommend updating to
a beta if you're willing to put up with bugs report feedback definitely you
could try it but not usually real real fun of people updating to that early on
because they're going to have issues unless you know what you're getting into
then it's completely fine but when someone ask me should I do it I normally
say no just because well you're thinking I can't deal with the bugs or something
along those lines I'm waiting for iOS 13 I will not be
updating to iOS twelve point four I don't feel that there will any there's
not any significant improvement but there's always bug fixes and security
updates I highly recommend updating to the latest versions they always fix all
the issues and then we start with new issues all over again in September one
the versions come out but that's it for this time around let me know what you
think in the comments below and let me know if you want more update videos on
iOS 12 0.4 or iOS 12 I will continue to support those phones that are not
supported by iOS 13 if there's something new for them of course I'll cover it in
the future let me know what you think in the comments below of course I'll link
