🗣Not really feeling it for Beta 3 on the older devices, it does seem a bit slower than what I saw with Beta 2 (5S, 6), however on the new devices it still feels pretty good.

🗣We are getting very close to the final version. This could be the last beta version we will see, maybe a Beta 6 next Monday. But pretty sure the final release will be online on March 25th same time as the Apple services event. So I am expected it to be performing close to what we will see from the final version. So without wasting much more time lets get down to business and test Beta 5.

iOS 12.1.4 vs. 12.2 Beta 6
iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6, iPhone 5s.
🗣Today Apple release iOS 12.2 Beta 6 to developers and also the Public Beta 6 for those on the Public Beta program. This was expected as we are now just 7 days away from the March event, and the final release of iOS 12.2 which we will see on March 25th. This is most likely the last Beta of iOS 12.2, unless Apple sneaks in a Beta 7 Thursday or Friday this week. IF it is the last Beta we should expect Beta 6 to be very smooth and polished. So can not wait to test it. Lets get on with just that.

🗣If you are on iOS 12.1.4 and worry about iOS 12.2 slowing your
device down? Don't. iOS 12.2 seems to be performing at the same speeds and smoothness as that of iOS 12.1.4. Booting the devices are the same on all devices, and Geekbench scores are too close to call. So all in all looks like a smooth release from Apple.
