iOS 11 is compared in detail with iOS 10.3.3 when it comes to phone performance iPhone, this being the most complex comparison you will find. We are talking about a comparison that puts all iPhone models compatible with iOS 11 face to face with iOS 10.3.3, and based on what you see below you can get an idea of what you will feel when you use iOS 11.
iOS 11, as expected, is slower than iOS 10.3.3 in most things we do on our phones, but that was to be expected. The difference is not big in some functions, it is big in others, and in some cases you will notice that iOS 10.3.3 is even slower than iOS 11, but these situations are quite rare and the differences are not really that big between the two versions of iOS.
iOS 11 has bigger performance differences compared to iOS 10.3.3 in the case of older iPhones and this is perfectly normal due to the hardware. We have already told you in several articles that iOS 11 will be more difficult on iPhone 5S, iPhone 6 and even iPhone 6S, compared to iOS 10.3.3, in the case of the iPhone 7 series the differences are smaller thanks to the much more efficient processor implemented by Apple.
iOS 11 vs iOS 10.3.3 – performance comparison on the iPhone
iOS 11 seems to have bigger problems with the settings application, with the camera, with unlocking, but it handles very well with opening the task switcher with applications open in the background. In the case of third-party applications, the performance of iOS 11 also depends on the way those applications were developed, so Apple cannot be blamed here for applications made by others that still do not work 100% well.
iOS 11 comes with a lot of internal changes, separate from external ones, so it was normal for the performance to be affected by the changes. Apple has also changed the file system on which iOS 11 operates, so that we have a substantial increase in performance offered by it, and for this reason the differences compared to iOS 10.3.3 are not quite as big as in other years.
iOS 11 still keeps the iPhone 5S as a usable phone, unlike others when the old models became practically completely useless. The same can be said about the intermediate iPhone models up to the iPhone 7, so users should have a fairly good user experience on their own iOS 11 phones, being an update that will not make your phones too difficult.
