Is it fast to upgrade iPhone 8 to ios 16.1
The iPhone 8 is already a very old model, and its overall performance configuration is far from the current mainstream mobile phone configuration. However, depending on the smoothness of the iOS system, there is no problem in daily use. Recently, Apple officially launched the official version of iOS 16.1, and many iPhone 8 users want to upgrade. After the iPhone 8 is upgraded to the official version of iOS 16.1, will the power consumption become faster?
Is it fast to upgrade iPhone 8 to ios 16.1? Will the iPhone 8 upgrade to ios16.1 consume more power
Power consumption is fast, upgrading is not recommended
Introduction to new features of iOS 16.1:
1、 Live Activities:
Apple redesigned the lock screen interface and the Live Activities real-time activity function on the Smart Island of the iPhone 14 Pro series in the iOS 16.1 system upgrade.
The real-time activity function can dynamically display the real-time information of the application without opening the app app, which will be displayed on the lock screen interface and the Smart Island of the iPhone 14 Pro series. In the iOS 16.1 system upgrade, third-party applications are expected to support the Live Activities real-time activity function
2、 Battery charge percentage display:
Android smart phones can display the percentage of battery power on the status bar to clearly understand the remaining power, but it does not support the percentage display on iPhone.
Apple has added the power percentage display function in the iOS 16 system, but the power display icon of the iPhone does not change with the change of power, which will give users the illusion that the power has not decreased. In the iOS 16.1 system upgrade, Apple has modified the power map, which will change with the change of power, more accurately reflecting the power of the iPhone, In addition, in the iOS 16.1 system upgrade, the percentage of power display also supports more models, such as the iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 13 mini, and so on.
3、 Apple Fitness+:
Apple Fitness+, Apple's fitness application, can only be used with Apple's smart watch before. In the iOS 16.1 system upgrade, Apple's watch is no longer required.
4、 Preload in app content
In the iOS16.1 system upgrade, Apple has a new toggle switch in the App Store settings. With this toggle switch, newly downloaded applications can be automatically run in the background to download content before you start it for the first time
To put it simply, you can run new applications in the background, preload the content in the application, and load the content before you start the application for the first time, so that users can use it faster without waiting for the application content to load.
In a word, although the overall performance of the official version of iOS 16.1 is very good, Xiao Bian does not recommend upgrading the iPhone 8. After all, the iPhone 8 is an old model five years ago. It's hard to adapt to the iOS 16 developed for the iPhone 14. It's better to use the old version.
