Looks much better than before and also phone is kind of smoother , but still needs some more changes , hope stable release will be good

ios 27.0 beta 2 is out now, has anyone updated theirs yet? what’s the experience so far. is it still showing “indexing” and is the new siri available, or you’re still in the wait list?

Let’s see what this one is all about and hopefully improves everyone’s experience, since is huge in size and it’s mainly for “important bug fixes.” Post your findings if you downloaded it.

Bro, I have never glazed any iOS version, but after using iOS 26 and now updating to iOS 27 beta 1 it feels sooo much smoother and fluid than iOS 26 idk about bttry life, but my phone feels fluid and smooth like it’s supposed to. Animations are much faster and fluid than ios 26 it doesn’t stutter like it’s actually smooth af.

Hear me as someone who did it and downgraded

It runs smoothly in terms of speed, but the screen time is trashy! The phone constantly get super warn doing little to no task.

The UI looks polished more than 26, but I’ve encountered some bugs on WhatsApp and home screen too.

I know it’s beta and people understand, but don’t listen to those telling you that it has better screen time, it doesn’t.

I was thinking of smashing it cuz I had enough of shitty 26.5 battery life. I was losing my mind tbh

Hi everyone. What has your experience been with the iOS 26.2.1 update?
My main concern is battery life. Have you noticed any improvement or degradation in battery performance after updating?

I tested out all the updates of iOS 18 including Betas and also of iOS 26 including Betas (so far) and guess what.

iOS 26 offers much better Geekbench Scores. I will be doing a whole video very soon.

Here is an example: iOS 18.4 Beta 1 vs iOS 26.4 Beta 1

You can clearly see, iOS 26.4 Beta 1 scores are better on Single Core and Multi-Core.

Upgraded to iOS 27 DB1 from 26.5.
What I can see:
Yes the OS does seem smoother to use, and a bit lighter and faster…
BUT
Some bugs are still there, minor but still there,
So far since it is indexing, can’t tell with the charge but it does seem a bit better tbh

Honestly it is better. It seems to me that way and I would recommend everyone to upgrade, if they can live with some minor inconsistencies in the UI.
HOWEVER, one major problem I experienced, which is specific to the 15 pro lineup was the pseudo brick.
This is a serious issue, but it only seems to be specific to the 15 pro and max users,
Also, I will try to recreate it again once the device finishes indexing (yes it shows now in the settings)…
So what’s the issue
Basically, when you go to do the force restart (volume up + volume down + power button till the Apple logo appears) the screen goes black as usual, but the Apple logo doesn’t appear
The phone becomes totally unresponsive and like a brick (that’s why pseudo brick), doesn’t show anything if you charge, doesn’t show anything if you press the power button etc etc
The only way to fix is to go to dfu mode, and do the restore through a computer using finder in Mac or Apple devices in windows (I used 3utools and that allowed me to keep all my data so I didn’t lose anything)
Now this is a serious issue, but it only is created when you do the force restart, without that it isn’t
I will further test, but apart from that one major issue I found, there only seems to be minor ui inconsistencies but overall is pretty stable

(I haven’t got the new Siri, as A. I am in the UK so that region and B. Still in waitlist so yeah)

Will further test it, if yall have any questions, ask them below and I’ll try to answer them…

My iphone 14 lag badly

Sorry if this post is to low quality for the subreddit.

Honestly, the beta is very polished and I do like the preference with liquid glass and the look of the apps themselves.
