It had to happen, deal with it, new connector is much better also it takes less space (more space from device to other things)

"If I want to stay with my 4s, I don't get all the updates from IOS 7, and I purchased the phone less than a year and a half ago." You get almost everything, only useful thing which you dont get is Airdrop, its because of the hardware which your device dont support. Im sure apple would give that feature as many as possible, because it would make it lot easier to get lot users for that feature.

The new iphone 5c looks like a kids toy. The comments about ios 7 looking girly are spot on the mark." Ios7 doesnt look girly, its the wallaper, actually newest beta 4 has different wallpaper and it doesnt look girly at all. I dont know if i have seen iPhone 5C i only seen rumours which might be fake chinese phone, so i wait when i see real deal. Im sure its going to look good, apple doesnt make bad looking devices, they have nailed it every time in last say 5 years.

"Apple maps still sucks and having 4 betas, possibly 6 betas tells me they've got serious issues with their new os. Explains why it's more than 6 months late."

Serious issues? Same amount betas have came every year. They need to be sure that everything working, theres lets say over 300 million users which are getting this same iOS in fall, so of course they take all the time.

What is 6 month late? IOS7? Its been said to come in fall, so its not late. Its coming when new iPhone is coming, the same happened every year. So i dont get where you get that 6 month late thing?

I just checked iOS6 got beta 4 and then GM release.

Last year iOS6 beta 4 came about week later) same time than this iOS7 beta 4

And month later GM released in september

    How that is related what i said? When iOS7 comes in fall, theres going to be a lot of apps which get that iOS7 update, then they stop crashing etc. It happened after every big iOS update.

    When iOS6 came, meebo (IM) app crashed everytime when you tried to open it. Then it took day or two to get iOS6 update and then it worked without problem. Same happened many many apps.

        Each OS has its pro and cons. Seeing you bashing minor stuff like that.. i believe you will have the same grief and suffering of other minor stuff from android, if you ever join android world.

        I can tell you that, because i have use and seen both side of the story.

          I don't like most of the comments here
          I don't know how people thinking!!
          I don't know anything! MORE than try to post a common sense that could help us in the near future

          from my side I like everything new and I will keep trying any new device and once I don't like it I just throw it away

          I have Iphone5, Note2 and Z10 still not conformable because I miss the old mobile like Nokia E70 and communicator that was meet my needs and so hard to use them now with hug of technology around us.

          now I am waiting Iphone5S and A10 from blackberry
          will see what is Noika next step

          however I still believe the future for NEXUS
          and on the end look for what you need find what meet your needs and you will be happy.

          good luck to all

            AnonD-1825, 29 Jul 2013Are you new to iOS world? 3rd apps of course have problems,... moreI've seen some of your ill informed comments before but this one is so bad it deserves a reply.

            The 1st beta is for developers. Every beta after that is for the OS developer to fix their code per their specifications. The OS code is written to the spec, and the developers write their code to it. If the OS doesn't work according to the spec, the developer reports it and the OS developer fixes their code and releases a new beta.

            What Apple is doing tells me the OS has too many bugs and they need their development community to help sort them out.

            Even when ios 7 becomes available for my 4s I won't be upgrading. I'll be waiting for the 7.1.x version or maybe even 7.2 if things are really bad.

              No more Apples for me, I've had enough.

                  for all who hates apple and there products who said you to click on the link and do marketing for android .. your comments wont change the mind of apple lovers ...if you dont like the OS or devices simply skip the article. We know how well the os works and the devices too... so simply shut the f##k up

                          Jeez. No wonder why samsung android phones are far better and great than this iPhone and its Girly iOS. Hahaha. These changes and new user interface in iOS7 are like copied to MeeGo. Now i Think MeeGo should Sue them. haha Eew. Even here in the U.S, many people prefer to use Samsung phones, even teenagers because iPhones are just outdated or just plain Boring but cost too much. Woah, Such as waste of money.

Thats why these betas are for devs, they can test their apps and update them to working with new OS. Thats why these betas are only for devs and not for normal users.
