iOS 4 is so slow on iPhone 3G that even the iPhone 3G users were forced to downgrade to iOS 3.1.3. Recently Apple claimed that iOS 4.1 has fixed all the performance issues of iPhone 3G.

Life Hacker folks checked it out by taking speed test to check out that  iOS 4.1 faster than 4.0, or is it just a wash?

The results are:

• Messages: iOS 4.1 Wins (By a Little)
• Maps: iOS 4.1 Wins (By a Lot)
• Photos: iOS 4.1 Wins (Just Barely)
• Safari: iOS 4.1 Wins (Just Barely)

The results are clearly shown in this video below:
