With the launch of iOS 5 beta, Apple confirmed that the latest firmware is compatible with the iPhone 3GS. However, we have received some reports that iPhone 3GS users on iOS 5 may have some iOS 5 features disabled.
So far it seems that iPhone 3GS users are affected as follows:
Significantly slower performance than the iPhone 4
No access to photo editing features via the Photos app
No camera access from the lock screen as with the iPhone 4
iPhone 3G users will be familiar with past firmware when iPhone 3GS users received the multitasking feature but iPhone 3G users were cut off.
