Just to clear up this matter, WP8.1 Developer Preview is complete in terms of features. Basically it's locked in feature set. But unfortunately this time it's buggy, if compared to WP8.0 GDR3 Developer Preview. They will release minor updates to address these bugs (lags, power drain). Honestly it's actually pretty stable, just lag & power drain the main issues now. Anyway, Lumia Cyan will add missing drivers to enable some stuff like transmit phone screen wirelessly using Miracast, probably help with the lag & power drain also.

yep, but still kinda laggy compare to 8.0. 8.0 is like no lag at all. lol....anyway, they will release another update in couple of weeks... haha! if you play high graphic games like modern combat 4, you can see the different. in 8.0 i can play without feeling of lag but 8.1 yes, quite alot. thats why i flash back to 8.0. haha!

and this is not the final yet as they still have to optimize and add or change some features. haha! it's more like beta 1 and beta 2 will be coming soon. hehe

Where got power drain, my battery power increase from 8-10 hrs to 14 hrs..

It normal after every firmware update first few days battery drain abit, since we tend to try out new feature and the phone optimizes itself

For me the battery life is more or less the same, just not as smooth as 8.0 only smile.gif

Actually I can feel the lag even in games like Temple Run 2 & Subway Surfers!

The only thing that wasn't included in the current WP8.1 build is the lockscreen customisation.
Your battery power increase is interesting honestly but anyway, ppl who experience power drain are all still using Cortana. Hehe. I've been using WP8.1 since the day it day it came out so unlikely my phone still haven't become normal till now right? I'm also not playing with Cortana much now, just using it for alarms, reminders & quick calls.

if let it in standby mode, yep, it behave like 8.0..sort of...around 1% per hour drain or maybe 2 hours. but when screen on and use it. shit! it can suck your 10% battery in less than half an hour. In gaming, yep lag here and there, feels like back to android. lol (old version android)

in 8.1 the longest i can hold for my battery is 40hours a charge, normally less than 40hours.

Yeap, but it's good that ppl are so eager to use developer preview, rather than no one bother.  brows.gif
This is correct as drivers need to be updated but only come with Lumia Cyan. Also some games need to be updated as well, like those using Unity engine. Basically WP8.1 broke some stuff in current Unity build games so those need to be recompiled & updated to latest Unity version.
Yes this is correct, they need input from us. This is why it's called a preview  biggrin.gif

guess it wont take long to get the update smile.gif just wait.
