hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech & iOS 12.1.3 Beta 4 has been out for
a few days and I haven't installed on all of these devices and have been using
it primarily on my iPhone XS Max that I have here and the beta has actually
been pretty good compared to the other ones now Apple released this only a few
days after beta 3 so I had to run another YouTube community poll to see
how this one is so that's why you may have seen two that we're similar but
we'll talk more about the community poll in a moment now as far as speed speed
has been pretty good things are nice and smooth scrolling things like that no
problems here anything that you have to just scroll through seems to me nice and
smooth and fast 3d touch is working fine but settings keeps locking up on me so
maybe you're in settings you go to general then it will freeze like it did
before and I thought they fixed that problem but apparently they didn't and a
few of you said that you had that issue in the community poll as well so it's
not just me I know that it seems to be a problem that apparently reappeared after
they fixed it with the previous update so that's kind of a pain but it's not as
long as it used to be so there's something there that they need to
resolve now also the modem update that they did under general and then about
they did a modem change with some of the updates in the background and it seemed
to be primarily AT&T but some people have said that LTE has improved and not
locked up I actually didn't have this issue with LTE or Wi-Fi and I know some
of you are quite a few of you did and many of you are saying that it's been
resolved some are saying it's not so it's hard to say exactly if people are
still having the issue but it seems to be an issue only for some people this
time around now battery life battery has been pretty
good for me a lot of you also said that it was quite good battery health is
still a hundred percent on my iPhone Tenace max and if we take a look over
the last 10 days here's where I got some of the most usage seven hours and nine
minutes which is phenomenal screen off time of one hour and three minutes and I
was in CES where there were over a hundred and fifty thousand people within
probably a three mile radius all trying to get on LTE so it was the battery was
getting very heavily used in those times taking photos and video
I kind of just went to to take a look at things I'm not sure if I'll do a video
on that or not but I did just take a look at things just to see what it is
make some contacts but you'll see overall it looks pretty good battery has
been the same or better for me with this particular beta update so it's fairly
stable and I'm surprised that it's not out today to the public quite honestly I
thought would be out today but maybe they'll push it till tomorrow and then
iOS 12.2 now maybe we'll see it next week I don't know I don't know if
they're keeping the features for next week or maybe June when they usually
have WWDC in the first few weeks where we have a whole new version of iOS so
I'm not sure if we're going to see anything major until then but it's hard
to say now before we talk about the YouTube community poll want to talk
about these devices and now I do have other iPhones but I tend to run
different updates on different devices so you'll see this particular one on the
iPad I've had no issues on the iPad whatsoever this is the 10.5-inch iPad
pro and this one has been rock-solid no issues here
nothing to complain of if you're running the beta you'll be happy with it the 5s
we did show that it took a little bit longer to load things like Minecraft but
overall the experience was quite good you'll see it's not going to be as fast
as the new phones loading things and there was a little bit of a hiccup there
but overall it's pretty good and nice and fast that carries through to the 6s
Plus that I have here of course this one is nice and fast as well and they've
really refined this since they sort of got caught last year with the whole
battery thing and throttling the CPU everything seems to be nice and smooth
and fast since then landscape on the plus models is working
just what just fine and then on the 8 plus because this is fairly new anyway
of course it's going to work well also in quite a few of you always ask me how
do you do landscape it only works on the plus model 6s plus 7 and 7 plus 8 plus
not the XS Max for some reason so overall it's great on all of these
devices now let's take a look at the youtube community Paul quite a few of
you voted 8.6K or 8600 and that is quite a few compared to other
times so I really appreciate that since we had a poll just a few days before
this on beta 3 and quite a few of you respondent there as well that's great
have this kind of feedback to help us all see how it is for everyone now you
can see 18 percent said it was great three percent said terrible six percent
said okay but some bug's fifty nine percent are not using betas and I'd love
to hear what some of you think I should put in its place some people thought I
shouldn't have I don't use betas and then 15 percent use Android I like to
kind of include everybody just in the poll just to get an idea of how many
people are actually using this now there's a hundred and thirty comments
I've read every single one of them there's quite a few quite a few really
good ones and some of them I've already mentioned most people are saying there's
really good battery life which is great sign and you'll see some people are just
saying what device they're on success max ten are you oh I'm not sure yeah I
guess or hi iPhone 7 plus waiting for the final version so let's take a look
at some of the things people have everything like animations got faster
probably because of the higher single core performance that's probably true
depending on the phone you have betas drain your battery health no they don't
they don't drain nothing really drains your battery health other than actually
using a phone over time batteries degrade
it's just how batteries work and there's not a whole lot you can do about it
honestly if you fast charge all the time that may be something you should not do
all the time best one yet for version 12 point one point three very fast and
smooth good performance so far best Apple update I phone XR it's been
decent on my XS Max love the battery life and again that's what I'm hearing
the most it's great on my tennis max the only issue is the Settings app takes
five days seconds to respond same thing I'm having like I said
battery life is great on my iPhone 6s plus and speed wise I'm really impressed
how smooth everything is and that's why I updated to the beta batteries good
getting six and six hours and 34 minutes average screen in on time screen off
time almost to our that's really good on a XR still rocking 6 plus bought it
two years ago in the battery starting to die still don't have the baby yet if I
have it we'll watch a video about it and see I would suggest getting your battery
in place you'll have really great speed it's really terrible the best iOS
version is six point 1.3 on iphone 5 well some people may
disagree with you I like to iOS 6 though I don't receive any Siri suggestions I
will try to reset my iPhone to see if that's this is persist or not it could
be a beta bug I haven't heard of that one yet though I'm using a standard
iPhone X I noticed it took longer to charge and battery usage is even 100 -
60 % slower so I've had a couple people comment on this and charging from 0 to
50 is going to be your fastest then it's gonna slow down a little bit and then
from 90 or 95 to 100 it will be really slow that's to preserve your battery and
maybe they're tweaking some of that so it's it's hard to say but expect with
the standard charger or the iPad charger you're going to get two and a half to
three hours charge time it's just the way it is so battery is okay but it's
still still on XS the bug of 10 seconds of inactivity where the closure of an
applic are studying improve performance but still can improve on Apple I've read
about this I can't reproduce it on my iPhone XS I haven't been able to
reproduce that at all I have no issues on my X or XS nothing whatsoever so I
can't reproduce that bug I've tried on my XS as well
iPhone se and the betas have been great apart from a few apps crashing I have my
Tam and personally I think beta 3 made the most difference instability baby
beta 4 just did a little difference while beta 2 is glitchy the modem update
has made a great improvement and I think that's what most people were looking for
the performance is great on my iPhone 7 however battery is getting used up a lot
it is draining heavily my battery health is at 100% however it's draining a lot
it's the only issue I would say there's something in the background doing that
smooth and fast just bored of it I agree Jun hopefully will see a major revamp so
that'll be exciting great battery life on my tennis max and definitely improved
cellular signals so far it's been great for me and I'm a heavy user probably the
best battery life I've had on the XS Max is this beta how can you get the
beta if you're a developer developer.apple.com or beta to apple.com
if you're not a developer you can check it out there and you have to sign up
that's the right way to get it you ask this question the other day no I
asked the same question beta 3 and then iPhone 7 plus battery life is fine but
takes almost three hours to charge to 100% on 12 on the 12v adapter that's
what I was talking about before they're probably tweaking the charge
speeds to see if they can get the best battery life overall
so that's really what there is with this particular beta hopefully it's working
out well for you and expect maybe the final tomorrow maybe we'll see a beta 5
but I doubt it hopefully the final tomorrow or later this week and be sure
to check back if you're looking for more updates as always I'll post a link to
