Apple has now released their second beta of iOS 12.2, and we have some speed test videos comparing iOS 12.2 beta 2 vs iOS 12.1.3.
In the videos below, the iOS 12.2 beta 2 vs iOS 12.1.3 is tested on the iPhone 5S, iPhone 6, iPhone 6S, iPhone 7, and iPhone 8. Let’s see if there are any speed improvements.
Performance Analysis
As we can see from the videos, there are no major speed improvements in the new iOS 12.2 beta 2 over the current iOS 12.1.3 software in either booting up or in the various apps. This is somewhat expected as beta versions are primarily aimed at testing new features and ensuring stability rather than optimizing performance. However, it is always interesting to see how each iteration of iOS performs on older devices like the iPhone 5S and iPhone 6, which are often the first to show signs of lag with new updates.
Upcoming Updates and Bug Fixes
We are expecting Apple to release the final version of iOS 12.2 sometime later this month, probably around the end of the month. This update is anticipated to bring several new features, including new Animoji characters, enhancements to Apple News, and improvements to the HomeKit platform. Additionally, the update is expected to include various bug fixes and security improvements that will enhance the overall user experience.
Before the final release of iOS 12.2, Apple will be releasing iOS 12.1.4 to fix the FaceTime bug. This bug has been a significant issue, allowing users to eavesdrop on others through Group FaceTime calls. The software update to address this issue is expected this week, and it will be crucial for users who rely on FaceTime for communication.
In addition to these updates, Apple continues to work on iOS 13, which is expected to be unveiled at the Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) later this year. iOS 13 is rumored to bring a system-wide dark mode, a revamped home screen, and improvements to the Files app, among other features. These updates highlight Apple’s ongoing commitment to enhancing the iOS ecosystem and providing users with a seamless and secure experience.
