QUOTE(KaiHD @ Apr 14 2015, 02:39 PM) no its because that damn fugly yellow emoji is typed by people who haven't updated to 8.3 (and so they cannot choose skin color) Try holding an emoji that allows you to select skin tone and tell me what you see at most left. Mines the Orange/yellow skin tone for ALL emojis. It's like the default color.

okay so here's what i noticed after the update;
Battery; more or less the same
Animation; feels a bit snappier
Features; loving the 2G option. didn't really bother about the rest
Performance; despite the animation being snappier, i'm not sure whether i can say the same about the performance. i play Injustice and Mortal Kombat X regularly, and both games tend to freeze and stutter during gameplay. i'm not sure whether this is a problem with iOS 8.3 (previous versions got no problem at all) or a problem with the games since they come from the same developers (Warner Bros -> NetherRealm) and that they may have not synchronize with iOS 8.3 yet. can you guys check your games as well? has your games been affected by the update or not?
Others; i found out (myself as well as other users) that iOS 8.3 has restricted app access from third party PC file managers such as iFunbox, iExplorer, etc. i can still browse my music and extract my contacts but i can't see the contents in my apps or make changes to it. this is a major downside for me because i rely heavily on iExplorer to backup/restore my games. i don't feel comfortable using iCloud or iTunes as it does not let me choose what to back up specifically and gives me no freedom at all. so now i can't restore my games' data (luckily Injustice saved my data via WBID)

Guess it's an iOS issue.

Actually, I noticed this with a few of my photo editing apps, and also Flipboard. The menu switching or page-flipping animations had a bit of stutter (almost felt like I installed Touchwiz instead of iOS 8.3 by mistake) the first few times I launched them, but after a couple of days, it's all completely smooth now. Almost like the new iOS version needed time to "re-learn" what needs to be drawn on-screen for what app. Maybe it's the same for your games?

Mine works perfectly fine. The guys at iFunbox did a great job by releasing the iOS 8.3 compatible software so quickly.

Running 8.4 beta 1 now. Nothing major other than the revamped music app. Other than that same performance as 8.3.

Hi ! I want to upgrade from Nexus 4 to Iphone 5 or Iphone 5c . Which of these is better in term of durable and resell value since i'm getting a refurbished set that has 1 month warranty , both are 16gb but the shop sells Iphone 5c RM50 cheaper than Iphone 5 . I would not buy 5s since out of budget . So which one should I get ?
