Significant Improvements in iPhone 4s iOS 5.1

There are many improvements and bug fixes in iOS 5.1, but I just see a few:

  • 1. Battery lives longer. With iOS 5.0.1, I have to charge every 1.5 or 2 days. With iOS 5.1, it lives up to 3-4 days for normal use (no game, video, 3g, etc)
  • 2. Camera shortcut now always visible on Lock Screen
  • 3. 3G runs faster and more stable.

You can read through list of improvements and bug fixes from Apple below:

• Japanese language support for Siri (availability may be limited during initial rollout)
• Photos can now be deleted from Photo Stream
• Camera shortcut now always visible on Lock Screen for iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch (4th generation)
• Camera face detection now highlights all detected faces
• Redesigned Camera app for iPad
• Genius Mixes and Genius playlists for iTunes Match subscribers
• Audio for TV shows and movies on iPad optimized to sound louder and clearer
• Podcast controls for playback speed and a 30 second rewind for iPad
• Updated AT&T network indicator
• Addresses bugs affecting battery life
• Fixes an issue that occasionally caused audio to drop for outgoing calls
