Cable Forum - The iPhone thread

ios 8 is a laggy mess on my ipad3

App loading slow, awful page rendering times in Safari, laggy input and I'm sure that more ills will surface as time passes.

Judging by the manner that nothing seems to have been optimised, My suspicion is that Apple have outsourced their coding to the chimp enclosure at Chester zoo.

For those with A5 chips suffering dog poo performance with the abomination that is iOS 8

You can downgrade back to 7.1.2 since the previous firmware is still being signed by Apple.

I've just done it and it was a good move. Backup thy personal data though.

I am downgrading my iPad air as ios8 has killed the wifi on it.

I will wait for a patch and try again in month or so I think :)

And in other news, Apple has decided to join the trend towards curved screens currently being used in high end TVs:

As a selling point they could say that they mould into your body shape to be more comfortable for the owner. :erm:

Oops they just released a very b0rk3d 8.0.1 update and quickly pulled it.

Breaking cellular connections and touch-id

What with this and the crap map app debacle methinks someone over there is going to be walking a very short plank before long.

I didn't know that the iPhone has only just got the swipe function for the keyboard, via the SwiftKey app...

Well as it only ever allowed you to use the inbuilt Apple keyboard, there wasn't much chance to use the swipe keyboard till now.

It's not hating, just fun to watch things fail on launch, especially high price Apple hardware as people never learn. It was the same last year and will be the same next year.

It's the same with Xbox One, nearly a year on and they are still crap, so it's funny. It doesn't mean I don't want one, I'm just not mad enough to get one (yet).
