Apple's iOS 5 isn't the biggest update we've seen, but it offers enough to get us interested. A few of the changes like the improved notifications system and the photo-editing features are minor but long overdue, while others like PC Free and iMessage will change how you use your iPhone. Here's what we've managed to try out so far.
One of iOS 5's most welcome features is the new notifications system. Instead of multiple, and sometimes irritating, pop-up notifications, you now have one menu that shows a complete list of your missed calls and messages, app updates, a stock ticker, and the current weather. Swiping down from the top of the screen (much as in Android) will get you there.
