Why don't you have a look at the review in this post it was quite good.

Still waiting for your suggestions as to a more useful phone that fits my requirements by the way.

If it helps anyone, the new itunes wouldn't initially recognise my 4s with iOS 7 but rebooting my computer sorted that.

iOS 7 is well worth the upgrade if your device can handle it. It's not just a lot better looking than past versions, it's simply much better all round with a far superior Notification Centre, a new Control Centre, and various other improvements.

It's so much better than the massive let down that was iOS 6 ("ooh, Apple Maps, plus now the iPad has Siri :rolleyes: ")

Mine took 33 mins - on my 16mb connection (it was 750mb) I suspect the servers will now be being hammered

Just found an interesting (yet pretty useless) feature, if you tilt the homescreen from side to side or up and down the icons move slightly, giving it a "3D" effect :)

Its gone down to 45 minutes now so it isn't very accurate. I'm not too fussed about getting it, just interested to see what the hype is about.

Not as long as you do a back-up in iTunes beforehand.

I tried for 5 mins but obviously the servers are under extreme loading right now. I'll leave it a day or two.

Or back up to iCloud.


If you do use iTunes, you *must* update to the new version first. Although the previous version can update a device to iOS7, it may not restore a back up to an iOS 7 device.

Managed to get it down onto my iPhone 4S, my ipad 2 and 4 last night, I quite like it and the new style but it's going to take some getting used to!
