Re: iOS7 Updates
For the most part, I don't have a problem with IOS 8.1 on my 4S other than those bugs reported across all devices. The only real time I see a performance issue is when I pull up complex emails, such as groups I'm subscribed to through LinkedIn. That being said, I'd recommend waiting a bit longer for IOS 8.1.1. This is supposed to specifically address some issues with older devices and hopefully we'll see some fixes to these VoiceOver bugs all iPhone users are running into.
