my iOS 27 thoughts after using it for the past 2 days:
honestly this beta is way more better than i expected
battery has been surprisingly good for a first beta (even i can’t believe it 😭) ,animations are so smooth, and the Liquid Glass now feels like what Apple showed us at the iOS 26 WWDC. i love it
if Apple removed the word beta, i probably wouldn’t guess this was a first developer beta..
finally got separate volume controls for ringtone, alarms & timers, and system sounds. iam very happy
there are still a few bugs here and there, but nothing that’s really bothered me.
one thing that does annoy me though:
the Glass Intensity slider works pretty much everywhere except Control Center
let me make Control Center more glassy too Apple. i want it to look closer to macOS.
overall, one of the smoothest first betas i’ve used.
obviously it’s only been 2 days, so these are just early impressions 😭
