After the update, performance improvements were noticeable. Geekbench application benchmarks showed single-core scores of 2001 and multi-core scores of 5018.

Gallery and Camera Application
In addition to the existing Hasselblad watermark feature in the camera app, users can now add the Hasselblad watermark directly through the gallery application.
Enhanced Weather App
The weather application now offers more comprehensive forecast information compared to the previous build.
