Comparative testing found that the performance of iOS 13.7 was not significantly improved compared to iOS 13.6.1

Apple pushed the latest iOS 13.7 update to all iPhone users yesterday, bringing some major improvements and new features, such as the extremely important "Close Contact Exposure Notification" during the global health crisis. However, the actual test of the YouTube channel iAppleBytes on multiple iPhone models found that the speed performance of iOS 13.7 was not significantly improved compared to the earlier iOS 13.6.1.

In tests on multiple devices running iOS 13.7 and iOS 13.6.1, it was found that the startup time of each app was roughly the same, and the smoothness of the animation was almost the same. In some cases, iOS 13.6.1 even loaded faster.

However, in most cases, iOS 13.7 did not lag behind, and the same was true for the game loading test. From the original iPhone SE to the iPhone XR, the results of all iPhone models were almost the same.

In terms of benchmarks, the results of iOS 13.7 and iOS 13.6.1 on various iPhone models are roughly the same (CPU/GPU performance), and the difference between the two is almost negligible.

Even so, Apple has clearly introduced many improvements and optimizations under the hood, as well as more important bug and security fixes.
