iOS 6.1 release date guesses

[ThomasJL]

Well, it's been three weeks since the fourth beta of iOS 6.1 was released to developers. For those who have paid close attention to previous iOS release patterns, what is your guess on when iOS 6.1 will be released to the public?

does it really matter? it contains almost zero changes, so its release wont enhance my phone in any way, thus I think most people couldnt care less about when it gets released.

Yeah except all the people waiting for the iOS 6 jailbreak.

Yeah, totally. I'm quite anxious for 6.1.

I haven't been following iOS release patterns super closely, but my guess is mid-late February.

Yikes! That's quite a surprise.
If they're no longer signing 6.0.1, it can't be more than a day or two before 6.1.

 

[Carlanga]

now?

ok , maybe now?

ok more time now?

maybe now?

There is no way to give an educated guess on when.

I hope there are some unique upgrades but feel is its a .x update it won't be too much

So rude. If it doesn't matter to you, why even bother to post here?

@ the OP, I honestly believe it'll be out either this week or next week. I'm just waiting so that the jailbreak can come out after 6.1 does.

 

[Beeplance]

How can anyone predict when it'll be out when the Gold Master version hasn't even been released yet?

And when the first reply mentioned zero new features, he's completely right. Nothing of any sort to look forward to, besides bug fixes to make the iOS 6 more stable as a whole. Unless Apple decide to throw something in in the GM version, then that's a different story....

NO. There's still 6.0.2 for iPhone 5 and iPad Mini owners.

 

[white4s]

never seen a forum with more rude, uncalled-for responses

leave it to the apple community

 

[qwerty994]

I think it'll be another week or two so apple can fix the battery bug on iPhone 5.

GM this week and release to follow

The unsigning of 6.0.1 is an indicator that they are moving this along. You will see it sooner than later.

Just my opinion

4g lte

I`m hoping to get 4G LTE on the next upgrade. I can´t wait.

??? 4G LTE has nothing to do with iOS 6.1.

yes it has it enables LTE for european carriers and TELCEL here in mexico at least the betas did (my carrier told me that it turned out to be true)

These threads are so worthless.

Why not post a thread about tomorrow's lottery numbers.

All replies are pure speculation.

 

[sbailey4]

Gm?

How does anyone know that there will be a GM version released? Couldnt they release 6.1 as a general release when they are ready? especially if its mainly a bug fix release with minor new features/enhancements. Seems one of the 5.x.x ones never went to beta with developers first it just showed up one day. Am I mistaken?

Sounds more like an uneducated guess.

6.0.1 no longer being signed for devices that have 6.0.2 isn't in any way an indicator of 6.1's progress.

 

[Oui]

I predict today.
