Just an update, I have just created the iOS 27 Speculation thread, made this one last year Feb so thought we can use it now to start talking about iOS 27. Enjoy guys.

 
So a X variable that started to surface last night, supposedly Apple is announcing a new iPhone next week. Does that mean further delay for 26.3? Who knows..... this has been such a weird cycle. Maybe those asking for a RC2 will get your wish 😎

I am afraid that is correct. Let's see.

I don't think so. The 16e got a different/special build of 18.3 last year. They could do the same for the 17e.

I have a feeling today's the day...exactly one week since the RC.

Hoping you’re right, it feels like they need to get 26.3 shipped and behind them. I think it’s been like 58 days since 26.2 was released. I know we got a 26.2.1, but it doesn’t seem like that brought much value minus the AirTag 2 functionality. Would be nice to get a final public release and start to hear something about 26.4.
 
Maybe they’ll throw us a bone and seed a second release candidate. Nothing even new about it, just something to psychologically hold us over.
