Why iOS5 Affects Battery Performance (semilshah.wordpress.com)
2 points by semilshah on Oct 23, 2011 | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments


I only recently upgraded to iOS5 and while some things are fantastic - the wireless/connectivity stability is farked up.

I can no longer email pics over 3G - my outbox just sits there, preventing any new mail from being downloaded.

I constantly lose connection on wifi - even so much as my home network doesnt even show up in the listing any longer, and I have to airplane mode it a few times to get it to refresh properly.

I am constantly timing out on connecting to the iTunes app store - even on home wifi.

I cant upload images to IMGUR via the phone, it loses connection about 30% every time.

I've noticed that people say "You're breaking up" a LOT more whenever I am talking on the phone....


Hi there. What device model are you on currently?
