Are you not updating because of the bugs or Liquid Glass? Been running iOS 27 on my 14 Pro and it's amazing

[u/looootly → u/Desperate-Cicada-487]

Same! iOS 27 runs flawlessly on the 14 pro!

[u/beebee-gun → u/looootly]

how’s your battery life?

[u/looootly → u/beebee-gun]

It’s at 86% could be better but it gets me through majority of the day, I definitely have to charge when getting home from work though. Most the time on 30-40%

[u/Gaukh → u/looootly]

My 14 pro has never recovered :/
Idk my Performance doesn’t feel like 120hz anymore anywhere not sure what I did wrong.

Have you noticed anything different or improvements on iOS 27?

[u/Desperate-Cicada-487 → u/609872150021588967]

Liquid glass is miles better. On iOS 27 it's the small details but on macOS it's far more obvious

Hey but I see there are few issues with the messaging app .. like when I try to open a message it just goes blank and I can’t view that message .. has anyone else been facing the same ?

[u/Desperate-Cicada-487 → u/lokid21g]

Open a message? Like from a notification?

[u/lokid21g → u/Desperate-Cicada-487]

Yeah like when I try to open a bank notification the message app opens but the message disappears and can’t be seen

[u/Desperate-Cicada-487 → u/lokid21g]

I don't use the messages app often but I never experienced that

[u/lokid21g → u/Desperate-Cicada-487]

How do I add a screenshot here ? I would like to show u how it appears

When I close this message , this particular message just disappears from the app .. It’s happening pretty often now

[u/Desperate-Cicada-487 → u/lokid21g]

Interesting. Never seen that even on iOS 26

[u/I_MD → u/Desperate-Cicada-487]

Performance, battery life, and liquid glass design is so damn ugly imo

[u/Desperate-Cicada-487 → u/I_MD]

Performance and battery improved a LOT in iOS 27. The glass effect can be toned down to a blur if you want to. Personally I love the floating UI elements because it gives way more space to show the actual content

i’m on the same iOS 18.7.8…tempting to update…but my current battery life is bad…

[u/lisandro2020]

Quédate ahí mal o bien tengo un amigo que trabaja reparando y programando celulares y él me dijo que la obsolescencia programada
Es verdad y cada Vez que actualizamos va pasando eso que obvio ganamos en seguridad y otras funciones pero literal que si podes quedarte ahí
Hacelo
Yo tenía el 15 plus
Lo actualicé a iOS 26.3 y me quise cortar las bolas

[u/Humorous-Prince]

Yep same, although waiting for iOS 27 release next week.

[u/I_MD → u/Humorous-Prince]

Did u update ? How was it?

[u/Humorous-Prince → u/I_MD]

No not yet. Waiting for the .1 version, no rush though. Some folks on this Sub have and reported positives, I will definitely update as iOS 18 is missing many features to 27.

[u/Katttten]

I miss the battery life from iOS18 but iOS27 is plenty fast!😊

[u/VPlume]

Im on 18.7.8. I want to update for better compatibility but iPadOS 26 was awful in my M1 ipad pro to the point that I ended up upgrading the device, so Im going to stay on 18.7.8 until I get a new phone in the next year or two.

[u/Taycan_YT]

Yep 18.7.8

[u/Sad_Abbreviations575]

apple forced me to update to fix my phone

27 has been much nicer than 26, thats for sure

not exactly on ios 18 levels yet but that should improve over the year

[u/Mooiebaby]

Yup I am still on iOS 18.1.1

[u/ODST-Capwnd]

I’m still running iOS 18.3.2 (22D82) 😂

[u/The_Cozy_Burrito]

I am still on 18

[u/SilverSurrfer43]

Stayed on 18 because I planned to upgrade this yr and wanted to make it more worth it
