anyone else notice stuttering animation on the iphone 5S

I went from the iphone 5 on ios 7 to the 5S and the animations on the 5S stutter about 50% of the time. specifically opening and closing folders and opening and closing apps.

ios7 on my iphone 5 runs buttery smooth. I thought the 5S is supposed to run better not worse.

anyone else having this issue and any suggestions? I believe that the software version for the 5S is not quite optimized at it should.

ios7 on the 5 went through 6 betas with thousands of developers running the betas reporting bugs. No one had the 5S so maybe its version of ios 7 is not quite finished.

any thoughts would be appreciated

Thanks

iPhone 5s

Oh okay! I know it's not a hardware issue cause my iPod has been replaced twice. And I think it doesn't happen to everybody since my friend doesn't experience that (I think). Oh well, maybe it will be resolved in a future update. Thanks :)

Ok thanks! I really hope it's going to be resolved soon cause it's really starting to get on my nerves! I submitted the bug to Apple Developer Bugreporter thing.

The bug still occurs in iOS 8 beta 5 for me. What about you?

yes. I find ios 8 beta 5 does suffer from the occasional stutter and lag. Being a beta release I am not so concerned. Hopefully final release will be as smooth as 7.1.2.

I Plan to get the iPhone 6 at that time so my 5s will be passed down to a waiting family memeber.
