I think I will wait for the final release because I don't want to deal with bugs and crashes on my personal device.

But knowing how I'm a big Apple fan, I will probably download the beta the minute it's released, I just can't resist lol. :D

Quite likely that many people here will update as soon as they can, as is usually the case.

Right away man. iOS 10 should be very exciting! And it's always cool to see what Apple's been working on for the past year.

I just paid €99 again today only to get the beta of iOS 10 (X) and MacOS (X) (10.)12 (or however they would be called) on the first day like last year.

I am hoping for big changes and to stop the one year major release cycle after that. Hopefully not already this year. Then my money was wasted if i only get an iOS 9.4 beta 1 and OS X 10.11.6 beta 3 on that day and one day later the public beta is available.

Will be giving it a miss. Played with the iOS 9 public beta last year and suffered from poor battery life and overheating. The benefits of many of the new features could not be appreciated without developer support anyways.

They've for the most part been releasing a new OSX every year for the last 16 years. I think there 2 release at a year and a half and 1 time at 2 years. So 13 releases in 16 years.

I made the mistake of downloading beta 1 of iOS 9 and the battery was absolutely shocking. My own fault, I'll stick with the public beta.

Expect beta 1 to be all over the place but I have a feeling iOS 10 won't be as bad (in the end) as iOS 9.

I'm going to be traveling and still plan to download on the first day to phone, pad, watch, and Macbook. I will take my chances.

BTW, with everyone saying 10 I keep thinking about Rack City, Ten ten ten twenties on ya...

I'm thinking about downloading the public beta to my iPhone 6 so that I can tinker with it. I'll keep my 6s on iOS 9 until 10 is released to the public in the fall.

I usually wait until the second public beta or so (which is around the forth or fifth developer beta), taking into account comments here also.
