Jeff Benjamin, 9to5Mac, does a fantastic job digging through iOS 12 to show off what’s new. If you have to pick one video to wrap your head around iOS 12’s new chewy goodness, this is the best one I’ve yet come across.
One standout from the video occurs very near the beginning, when Jeff runs a GeekBench benchmark test on two identical phones, one running iOS 11.4 and another running the first beta of iOS 12. iOS 12 shows some clear speed improvements.
I’ve been watching a number of videos testing this delta from iOS 11.4 to iOS 12 and most of the performance improvements Apple promised show up in all of them in one form or another. One video, dedicated exclusively to the iPhone 5S, clearly shows Apple has paid attention to older devices, making sure those speedups carry a good way back in the product line.
Ayn Rand. Now I feel dirty.
“So, before we begin, please go ahead and Thumbs Up and Like this video….” I hate YouTubers.
Ah yes, that wacky author whose books are the size of phone books, and half as interesting.
Hate it too. I still haven’t watched any of Rene Ritchie on YouTube even though many of them are very interesting. If they’re on Vimeo I’d watch all of them by now.
I forgive a “If you liked this video, click thumbs up” at the end. But even that’s stretching it a bit. 🙂
I’m totally going to steal this at some point. 🙂
I don’t mind the ones at the end but at the beginning? It annoys the shit out of me. 🙂
Feel free! I stole it.
