    I downloaded it a little bit ago. Nothing dramatic that I've noticed yet but I'm still going through it. From what I have found so far I've liked. For example when you double click the home button at the top now is a list of your favorites and recent contacts they you can click on to either call or message. Also the voice message is kinda cool. I don't know how much ill use it but its a neat feature.

    Haven't downloaded it yet but I may be getting the new iPhone 6. I have the 4s and the battery life is just terrible.

    I was going to upgrade but spent the time restoring to factory defaults instead. Going to take the $200 for the trade-in. I'll be picking a new 6 up on Friday. Switching carriers as well. I am long over due. I haven't had a new phone in over 3 years. The battery in this phone is shot.....

    I'm not downloading it because I am told that it will kill my 4S.

    I will be getting the new iPhone 6 and switching to Verizon. T-Mobile and Sprint suck!

    It took me about 45 minutes. I am working with the original iPhone 5 and I have noticed it slowing down my device significantly. I like the new features however.

    I haven't seen an option to update to the new IOS yet. Personally, I'm looking at going back to an Android platform.

    I was due for an upgrade so the 6 is coming in the mail tomorrow.

    What's different about the iOS 8 upgrade?

    My 4S has been slow and temporarily freezing ever since I downloaded the update. In fact, if this doesn't get any better I'm going to have to try to find a way to get rid of it.
