Unlocked unrooted, North of Phila,PA received the 147MB update around 2:47PM. A minute or 2 for D/L(35/35 FIOS). A couple min to install, a couple reboots, total time 10 to 12 min, 59 App updates.
I don't see much difference, with the caveat that I had zero lag before hand.(Watching io and listening to 10 podcasts on the butter, all I could think was how could this phone be any smother or faster) Maybe I don't have many apps or have not done much to the phone, but its always been really snappy. Very smooth and no lag. So I don't really see where my phone has improved.
Played with NOW, Its like Siri after a few laughs I may not use it. I use voice control to set the alarm and thats about it. I was hoping I could add Calendar events, no luck with that.
Neat boot screen, neat effect on lock screen. I like the voice.
