Perfect timing! My iPhone 7+ was delivered one hour ago. Download from Apple took less than 2 minutes and its installing right now.
This is actually good news. It means they're still improving it. Because lets face it : so far it sucks on anything other than ideal lighting/distance scenariosWait, so the Portrait Camera is still in beta?
How many people actually knew what bokeh meant before the Keynote!!?prepare to be bombarded with bokeh on Facebook! Love this feature.
There was no beta 5 for the 6s only the 7 series. Build for beta 4 was 14B72 (no letter). Same build for release too but a carrier bump to 26.1. Interesting it saw and applied an update even though the same build.Yes, that's because you are on beta 4 and beta 5 it's the same as the newly released build.
It's also a full 1.8Gb download. No delta for this one. Which is good. I think.May take a few more minutes to start showing up, but Apple has definitely pushed it to the servers.
Yes, same build number...14B72c for iPhone 7/7 Plus and 14B72 for everything else.
Odd. Your phone will not have much of the depth effect without the explicit portrait mode. I think once you update you'll notice a pronounced difference.

Apple today released iOS 10.1 to the public, marking the first major update to the iOS 10 operating system that launched on September 13. In testing since September 21, iOS 10.1 saw Apple release five betas to developers and public beta testers before its public debut.
Today's iOS 10.1 update is available as a free over-the-air update for all iOS 10 users. It is the third update to iOS 10, following iOS 10.0.3, a minor bug fix update.

iOS 10.1 introduces a new "Portrait" mode, designed to take advantage of the two cameras included in the iPhone 7 Plus, released in September. Portrait mode uses the wide-angle and telephoto lenses in the iPhone 7 Plus to create shallow depth of field portrait photos with blurred backgrounds.
To achieve the blurred look, the image signal processor in the device uses the wide-angle camera to create a depth map while the telephoto captures an image, dissecting the different layers of the photo to decide what to blur with an artful "bokeh" effect. It works on people, pets, and objects, but it does require good lighting to achieve the proper results.
The update also offers a long list of bug fixes and other under-the-hood improvements to address many problems that have been uncovered since iOS 10 was released, and it also brings Transit directions to Japan for the first time.Subscribe to the MacRumors YouTube channel for more videos.
There have been some tweaks to the Messages app. It's now possible to play Bubble and Screen effects in Messages with Reduce Motion enabled, something that wasn't previously possible. There's also a new option to replay Bubble and Screen effects.
iOS 10 has been described by Apple as the "biggest release ever" for iOS users, with features that include a redesigned Lock screen, a Siri SDK to allow third-party apps to integrate with Siri, and a completely overhauled Messages app with stickers, a full App Store, Digital Touch, Bubble Effects, and more.

Does this update restore star ratings to the Music app?
me too. my lightning headphones are still "freezing up" causing me to unplug and plug back in. I thought it was fixed in a previous update?
unedited pic from oct 15th, phone was on 10.0.2, from a meal we had out camping. clearly showing the portrait mode in effect. after seeing it we played around with headshots of the kids with the same effects (not posting pics of my kids).

Yep. Better switch to Android then. I mean, this is such a critical bug that it affects the whole OS and how you use it on a daily basis.
Stupid Apple.
