We have categorized this article as opinion because we are based on our experience. We are not guided by dimes and diretes from other websites, so what you are going to read here is the result of our own experience.We have a iPhone 6 that we use to test apps, setting changes is the device we experiment with. Well, we were on iOS 11.4.1 and we've updated to iOS 12. The change has been really interesting.
If you have an older iOS installed, such as iOS 10 or iOS 9, no we know if it will improve with iOS 12. We will tell you about the change from iOS 11.4.1 to iOS 12.
iOS 12 on iPhone 6:
We follow this tutorial to do the installation of iOS 12. We leave the iPhone to factory settings and set it as a new iPhone. In this way we completely clean and debug the operating system.
Once we had it installed, we linked our ID, everything we have activated in the iCloud backup was downloaded, we installed the apps we had, etc. and we noticed a great improvement in performance. The apps opened faster, the lagueo did not exist and we have even noticed a certain increase in autonomy (this will depend a lot on how punished your battery is. If you have not changed it before, remember that it is a 2014 device).
Being a device with a certain age, let's remember that the iPhone 6 appeared on the market in September 2014, it's true that it doesn't perform like a iPhone XS The processor is much lower, in performance, than the new devices mount. But it is true that the performance from iOS 11 to iOS 12 has improved.
Also, we are going to tell you which settings to modify to improve performance.
Set iOS 12 on iPhone 6 to further improve performance:
- Activate Motion Reduction. This makes the transitions not as flashy, but makes them more efficient. Follow the path below to activate it -> SETTINGS / GENERAL / ACCESSIBILITY / REDUCE MOTION.
- Disable background updates. We avoid extra use of the processor and, in addition, we save battery -> SETTINGS / GENERAL / UPDATE IN THE BACKGROUND.
- Deactivate automatic adjustment of Date and Time We prevent our device from constantly locating us to show us the time of the place where we are. If you do not travel to other countries, we recommend deactivating it -> SETTINGS / GENERAL / DATE AND TIME.
- Disable Handoff. We avoid spending processor in this recommended function for people who work with the iPhone and other iOS and MAC devices. A "normal" user does not need to have this option activated. -> SETTINGS / GENERAL / HANDOFF .
- Turn off auto brightness. We prevent the light sensor of our iPhone from being constantly active. -> SETTINGS / GENERAL / ACCESSIBILITY / DISPLAY SETTINGS.
- Avoid third-party keyboards. They reduce the performance of applications that display the keyboard, such as messaging, social networks, etc
You don't have to disable all these options. Do it to your liking. But we warn you that, of all of them, the one that you will notice that improves performance is the first.
We recommend upgrading to iOS 12 on iPhone 6.
iOS 12 on an iPhone 5S:
We tell you about the experience of iOS 12 using the iPhone 5S of a co-worker.
We encourage you to install on new iOS and you've been amazed that everything runs so much smoother than the latest version of iOS 11 .
Opening the camera, starting an iMessage conversation, displaying the keyboard, opening apps notice a clear improvement.
If we also apply the settings that we have mentioned before, surely the iPhone will work like almost the first day.
We recommend updating to iOS 12 on iPhone 5S.
Apple brings old devices back to life:
And, once again, Apple makes devices from the year 2013, such as the iPhone 5S, return to fully operational 5 years later. In this way, they extend their "usability" until September 2019, the date on which they will surely stop updating this device.
What other mobile phone manufacturer makes a mobile phone last so long at full capacity? We already dedicated a post to this in the past and it is that the average life of an iPhone at full capacity, is 4-5 years.
We will repeat it over and over again. The iPhone are expensive, no doubt about it, but you are guaranteed a high-end smartphone at full capacity for 4-5 years.
Greetings.
