Based on nothing, just my feeling, I think next week too!
I believe we’ll get something, sometime, this month, or maybe next month, definitely feel right about this.
It could be Friday (depending on how urgent a need there is to clear the decks for 16.6). It will not be Saturday. IIRC, there has only been one Saturday release of any kind and that was an emergency patch. There’s no way they will release a public release on a Saturday unless there’s an urgent need. And if there were an urgent need, they’d take care of it with a security update.

I’d like to see an analysis correlating Safari Developer Preview release dates with iOS release dates. I suspect there’s a strong correlation.

just a gut feeling is we are going to get a Friday release, so Apple can capitalize on their promise that is was this week but making it as late as possible

This gives me hope. It's going to be tomorrow. 🐒
all the signs are pointing tomorrow, which is exactly what makes me think it won't be tomorrow. Apple seems to never do what you think they are going to do.
Place your bets. There are ample clues for Friday, but this beta cycle to release has been weird. Beta 1 then 2 weeks go by, beta 2 then 2 weeks go by, beta 3 then 2 weeks go by, beta 4 then a week later RC, a few days later RC2.
Usually it varies more between a week later and sometimes 2 weeks at the beginning, but this time its like "keep them waiting", "stall while you can", does this have something to do with something not quite ready?
Just my impression but this time something different about this time, and I seen many cycles.
I am sticking with tomorrow (Thursday). That is a very common release day for iOS. This statement further affirms. Probably the same build as RC2 so we are already set.

I hope they do, there could have been something released that could have bricked our phones
I do believe today is the day, although an odd Thursday release.
Soooooooooooo……..
Who’s betting that today 16.5 will drop? ;-)
