Mark Gurman reported that Apple is finalizing the beta versions of iOS 18. However, his statement is somewhat ambiguous.

I was told that the current iOS 18 is final, except for features related to new hardware.

— Mark Gurman

Based on his words, there are two possible interpretations of this message:

• There will be no more iOS 18 beta versions until the iPhone 16 release.
• There will be no new features in iOS 18 until the iPhone 16 release.

9to5Mac suggests that since the final beta has been released, the presentation of the new iPhones might take place not on September 10th, but on September 4th. If this is the case, the current seventh beta is the final one—often, the final beta version is released 1-2 weeks before Apple’s presentation. [9to5]
