Have had developer beta on MacBook Air since the start. Put beta 3 on my iPad Pro, iPad mini, and iPhone Air this past week. no problems thus far.
on the MacBook Air, I had one time where mission control hung and I couldn’t get back to the desktop. other than that, no issues.

TEMPTED to in my daily driver iPhone Air 🤔
I jumped on Beta 3 on my 17 and it ran very well! The only issue I had was CarPlay constantly disconnecting (wired) and that is unfortunately a deal breaker for me so I rolled back to 26.6 beta.

Outside of the CarPlay issues, it genuinely reminded me of what iPhones used to feel like back in the day. Polished. Quick. Fluid, and snappy.

I did. It finally feels the way this phone should have felt at launch, as long as you can ignore the bugs.

Developer beta 3 has been shocking compared to 1 and 2 so I’m hoping for a much improved developer beta 4 just before it.
Battery consumption on 3 is really better than on beta 2.
