Hi Friet,

There are 'always' bugs in a new release. Gradually the bugs are 
squashed. If you want to smooth ride, I suggest that you only use the 
following long time releases,

12.04.1 LTS
12.04.5 LTS
14.04.1 LTS
14.04.5 LTS (when it will arrive)
16.04.1 LTS (when it will arrive)
16.04.5 LTS (when it will arrive)

Waiting until the first point release, late in July or in August, will 
give you an iso file which is much better debugged than the original iso 
file (right now, skip 16.04 LTS, instead wait for 16.04.1 LTS).

You should also avoid to 'do-release-upgrade' until when the first point 
release iso files are available (late in July or in August).

Best regards
