I have the iPhone 4, I would like to have the new iOS5 but my concern is that with all the new features will it slow the phone down?
Thanks

Would this help?

There's also this:

Is the iPhone 4S really faster than the iPhone 4?

I only used my iPhone4 with iOS5 for 2 days (till the 4s arrived yesterday) but I noticed that it seemed faster too.

If anything mine feels zippier !

Be sure to do a full backup before updating.

I was using the iOS 5 betas on my iPhone 4, and even in betas it was faster than iOS 4.x on the phone. They seem to have optimized it for across the board performance.
