iOS 11.2 Review! Should You Update? #Helpful Post

hey what's up guys everything alkyl pro

here and I was 11.2 is practically here

I wanted to do a full review and show

you guys what's due what's important

when deciding whether or not to upgrade

and basically everything in between

now today coincides with the release of

eleven point two beta 6 as well and I'm

gonna talk about that really not much

has changed at so I haven't been posting

about the beta 5 or beta 6 releases but

still wanted to mention those so what's

new what's changed and should you update

now for older devices when jumping into

the wallpaper section you'll notice you

have several new wallpapers and this is

thanks to the iPhone 8 and X marketing

wallpapers Apple has thrown them into

older devices as well which is a great

change I'm always for adding more papers

in the actual live section though on

iPhone 10 exclusively you will find

three new Glitter wallpapers here that

are dynamic when you press on them they

will react and it's a very cool effect

this is what I actually like to use for

my wallpapers blew it in particular it's

a really nice look and this was

something that I put showed off in their

actual release event so it's good to see

them start adding these features onto

the actual iPhone release and the

calculator input lag has been fixed when

actually trying to type in some

character is really quick it'll give you

an incorrect attempt and now that has

been fixed so you can do it very quickly

and still get the correct result some of

the emojis have been tweaked as well as

a rearranged so Apple has been working

on the emojis once again they really

like to make these rights if you take a

look at the Scotch icon in particular

you'll notice it's much more detailed

now on 11.2 whereas before it was kind

of flat and more cartoonish looking so

more realistic looking emojis for some

of them an Apple pay cash a beta is here

you'll not be able to send money over to

your friends through messages and within

the wallet app you'll get this cool new

holographic card for Apple pay cash

really neat but do remember that your

friends do have to be running 11.2 in

order for this feature to work on the

lock screen you will see an exclusive a

new grabber in the control center area

over here on the iPhone 10 letting you

know that it's available to drag down

this was a feature Apple also showed off

in their release and it's nice to see

that become finally available so pretty

cool

now also coinciding with this inside of

the control center widget page here

actually disabling Wi-Fi or Bluetooth

will give you a white

now and when you do it for the first

time it has a notice letting you know

it's only currents for 24 hours then it

will be rien a bULOG n meaning you guys

can no longer completely disable Wi-Fi

or bluetooth from the control center

page only in the settings page and apps

can now introduce subscriptions on the

fly so if you're subscribed to some sort

of application they can actually start a

new introductory pricing for

subscriptions whenever they want without

having to go into the App Store to buy

an in-app purchase and fast wireless

charging has been introduced or so they

say if you can even call it that actual

studies have shown that the new fast

wireless charging feature which has been

enabled in 11.2 doesn't charge much

faster than standard wireless charging

if you guys want the fastest charge

available use the twenty nine watcher

that plugs in directly into your

lightning port otherwise you know I

would still take this upgrade over the

standard one but it doesn't charge as

fast as you would think it would as 7.5

watts and all around the performance

guys has been night and day for whatever

reason when I first got my iPhone 10 it

was so smooth so fast and then when I

started putting all my stuff on it it

started slowing down I was getting lags

hangs especially in the messages

application when typing the keyboard

would just start freezing and lagging on

me especially when starting a new lion I

don't know why that was but in the

newest version of the beta it's been so

much better I mean the responsiveness

everywhere in iOS has been much improved

so unliking thats that the performance

has been upgraded it's now worthy of the

iPhone 210 and I think it's only going

to keep getting better from here so a

lot of optimization lag removal just

much better performance on my iPhone 10

and especially on older devices I

noticed that jumping into the apps which

are on older phones with the home button

actually works much faster of twice as

fast on my iPhone 8 plus series so I'm

liking that if you guys were having

performance problems on iOS 11 point 1.2

or earlier definitely upgrade just for

the hat alone so those are the major

features in 11.2 there's still a lot of

smaller stuff that has significance that

I want to cover as well starting with

the boot sequence when turning your

iPhone on now it no longer flashes

midway through the boot sequence so on

the right is 11 point 1.2 and you notice

it flashes the Apple

who disappears for a second and then it

comes back there's a very weird and

interesting bug now it's been fixed and

as a result look at that it turns on so

much faster on the 11.2 then on the

previous 11-point 1.2 so not only will

your device turn on faster it no longer

flashes during the boot sequence and I

would even call that a 2 x improvement

in the boot up speed that's crazy and I

notice that the album artwork is more

squared versus rounded on 11.2 and it

kind of works but I prefer to before

even though it cropped more of your

image out and whenever you're deep in

these settings the handling of the

titles has changed notice the back

button and the title is offset here now

so it's gonna be looking a little bit

too different but still easier to

navigate I guess now when you go into

the power off a menu like so when you

leave it it will no longer go to your

home screen and now goes to the lock

screen automatically and interestingly

enough if you actually hold to enter the

power menu and keep holding it'll now

jump in to an automatic timer off and

instead of 3 seconds it goes to 5

seconds on 11.2 one in the widgets page

you can now just drag up to go into the

text input field or as before you

actually have to manually reach up and

click to enter some of the animations

with reduce motion enabled inside of

accessibility have changed so actually

going back to your home screen you'll

notice it's a little different now it

doesn't do that flashing anymore when

going home it just flashes home on the

iPhone 10 so they fix that as well as

the control center would actually 3d

touching to enter a toggle it doesn't

really you know flow into it it just

appears now instead notice the

difference or the contrast between those

animations so I'm definitely different

there and there are actually a lot of

visual tweaks to music that have been

improved so first off the shadows have

been fixed when actually playing music

previously sometimes they wouldn't

appear when you would drag down go back

up and look behind the album art well

now they do but sometimes they just

wouldn't show up it's a little glitch

also when actually slowly dragging up

you get this nice little fade in

animation it kind of grows in and same

when actually dragging down

whereas before I kind of just disappear

so that's kind of cool I have to say

when actually bringing up this here any

backgrounds previously you'd be able to

see some of your album artwork when

dragging up that's been fixed kind of

like a lot of visual enhancements inside

of the music application also when

playing music and you force close the

app out it will actually fade out to the

music instead of abruptly ending it like

before and the actual volume scrubber

has been made smaller for whatever

reason it's not harder to grab but it is

smaller and in the control center when

starting a screen recording you can now

quickly cancel it before the countdown

finishes or previously you actually have

to wait for it to finish so that was

kind of annoying now also when you do

start a video recording and you do your

thing so let me act it this thing come

back in and stop it well actually when

you click over here to stop this prompt

will no longer show up when actually

viewing everything so when I view the

video and I show you guys at that same

points it will not show these stop

prompts which was kind of annoying

because you'd have to crop that out if

you ever used it just like that

also if you notice that real quick when

I clicked on the notification when the

screen recording was done it took me

directly to the video not into the

photos like you did on eleven point one

point two so app will fix that behavior

as well and within the messages

application you'll notice that the icons

over here for the camera have been

updated the camera icon the photos have

been changed slightly tweaked interface

altogether it's been made slightly

smaller more compact on the iPhone 10 as

you can see here so nice to see those

consistency updates all around in iOS

alright guys so there it is overall for

iOS 11.2 quite a significant upgrade

fast wireless charging improved

performance lots of little changes

everywhere Apple pay cash so this is big

this is a very big one of course I would

recommend updating and I'll talk about

whether or not you should in just a

second here but I wanted to go ahead and

mention Iowa's eleven point two beta six

and beta five so the only changes I can

even think that Apple would improve

would be the IT correction book so you

guys know how previously the eye bug

would correct that weird symbol now

there's been a new one where IT will

actually correct to I dot

t dot so it's really weird once some

people are experiencing actually

hundreds of people and output most

likely fixed it in this beta and they're

gonna release it here in just a second

instead of eleven point one point three

two people anyways so that's the only

thing there's bug fixes performance

improvements and that's pretty much it

for these later betas not much to really

talk about it so I didn't make videos on

those and I wanted to mention that this

is most likely the gold master GM

firmware so you guys will not see in

other updates once the final release is

out very likely that it is but we might

see a beta seven you know you never know

just by the build number I guess it

might be a GM and historically Apple has

been releasing point two for more

updates in the first couple of weeks of

December so there it is for the updates

I wanted to run a speed test lastly to

give you guys an impression of

performance but the animations I mean

that's where the difference is it is

night and day for me on my iPhone 10 and

there we are ten thousand one hundred

forty four multi on eleven point one

point two this is what I get my other

one so pretty close I would not even say

there's much of a difference here

whatsoever so numbers are the same but

the actual performance of the OS has

improved greatly it's just feeling much

sharper much more fluent I definitely

like to see that kind of improvement so

anyways guys thanks for watching there

it is the latest on eleven point two and

that is my full review of it is it worth

updating to at this point in time

absolutely it would be a mistake even

not to update to it you'd be missing out

on a lot of features and the speed

performance gains are real as well as

wireless fast charging so anyways hope

you guys enjoyed that video stay tuned

and I enjoy the update once it drops
