Features are exciting and definitely live up to Apple expectations. Some of the new gestures for Mail include the Mailbox style swiping, that allow you to mark as new or delete.

Another feature offered with this update is the natural language processing offered by Spotlight. You can search for specific things in your apps that are completely customized to you. However, Apple has also made a move to some Windows features, such as being able to drag the windows to the sides of the desktop that will auto-fill on the side, helping to resize the windows so they fill the unused space.
The surprise of this latest update is the fact that the Metal API provides faster graphics performance for iOS devices, which are going to be included with the OS X. Apple has claimed that it brings up to 10 times the performance on the desktop.
