Hi,
Is anyone running IOS 10 on an iPhone 5? If yes, how is the speed/responsiveness?
Thanks,

Hi, IOS10 is alright on my end, I'm almost happy with it except for a few quirks. wouldn't call it super speedy, but it's not slow to the point that would drive me crazy and make me want to smash my IPhone against the wall. The new voices seem to be quite responsive, the overall speed is tolerable, too, sure, IOS 9 might have been a touch snappier, there is a bit of a lag on the Today screen, other than that, everything is running more or less smoothly. Apps don't take longer to open up, flicking through the home screen is also effortless and there are no lags either. The only downside of it is, my 16 GB IPhone has only 12 gbs of storage capacity right now because of the heavy previous IOS versions, the system occupies almost 4 gbs, but it has nothing to do with IPhone 5 anyway.

Thanks for the response, I've updated my iPhone 5 to IOS 10 and everything is just fine. I'm Happy with the update, at last, Siri can now make calls in Ghana.
