    I love it. It feels like a new phone as looks massively different.
    I like the change in closing the apps and I am impressed that we can finally block certain numbers from texting or calling.
    The icons do look a bit cartoon like, but you do get used to it.
    The messages and emails also have a bit of a microsoft feel to it.

    In the old format there was a nice defined slide bar to open the device, now it's a vague series of lettering.

    In this version you can swipe the screen across from anywhere on the screen, the lettering is telling you what to do not where to do it, far more user friendly than the bar IMO.

    I find the bold and simple design far more modern and interesting looking. The cheesy designs that were around since the start of ios we're looking v old fashioned.

    click on phone to see a list of incoming/outgoing calls, after the number there is an exclamation mark, click this and block the caller.;)

    One thing I have found on the technical side, was my friends were receiving my texts without knowing who they were coming from. Only my e-mail address was displayed...
