Last night iOS 5 was released publicly for all users, Apple's servers couldn't handle the traffic and tens of millions of iDevice owners received various errors when trying to update to the new version of the operating system. Even so, many managed to finally install the new iOS 5 and now it's time to see how much improve performance to our iDevices the new creation of those from Apple. In the 3 images of this article we have a comparison between iOS 4.2.1, iOS 4.3, iOS 4.3.5 and iOS 5 and if you look carefully you will notice that iOS 5 is much faster even than iOS 4.2.1 on iPhone 4 .
In the case of the iPad 2 tablet, things are even better than with the iPhone 4 because the Apple tablet gets better results in almost all tests, except for the one for the file system. Unfortunately, in the case of the iPad tablet, the situation has worsened because iOS 5 slows down the functionality of Apple's tablet and everything probably in the idea of "convincing" users to purchase the new iPad 2 launched this year.
For the tests, GeekBench, Gague, BenchTest and SunSpider were used, but unfortunately we don't have a test for the old 3GS, which does quite well with iOS 5. Last year, iOS 4 slowed down users' iPhones a lot, especially 3G- which ended up not receiving support, but this year things are completely different. Apple offers almost all users the opportunity to make a real update by installing iOS 5 and things to go to the company from Cupertino.
