My new favourite part of these videos is finding out what music Brandon is listening too 😂

Finally! Beta 1 was awful, let's hope Beta 2 is better & more stable!

out of the bag I noticed it's much more smooth and keyboard typing is fixed. I had an issue where a key on the keyboard would get stuck. Clunky typing experience in general but now it's smooth

Was waiting for this video since 2004!!!

Something else I noticed is a lot more of my 3rd party apps have a dark mode icon now.

They should also add a standalone WiFi toggle to the control center

My battery life on 18.1 Beta 1 was actually pretty decent. I would end the day around 25-35%. When I was on 18 beta 4 I was barely making it through the day

[BurnoutParadiceROCKS]

Is the Bluetooth not reconnecting issue fixed?

[Thunder_God_Bane]

Great vid man. Where you get that wallpaper? It’s sooo good

[Brians_tech]

When the new iPhone comes out, how do you go to iOS 18.0 full release from 18.1 beta?

[SooDamGood]

I can't seem to airdrop from my mac to iPhone when personal hotspot is connected.

[nner.wrld]

Finally ! That “new” siri was bugged out

[USA_Shark]
