What's more, we haven't seen any major changes in macOS since 2014, so I think the new release should have more new features.
I dont think any more changes would happen.
Further bug fixes or new features would be in 10.4 betas.
I'm going to assume the iPad Air 2 Rotation lock issue has been fixed? No one seems to have updated the past 2 beta on fixed or newly found bugs
Don't judge the phone a day after updating. Your battery has to adjust to the new beta.
Omg i havent seen 10h on my 7 Plus since the day after i unboxed it and i bought the Plus cuz i was fed up with the battery life of my 6 but it is almost the same ...
+1. In Turkey, I've been using WiFi Calling on iOS 10.2.1. But on iOS 10.3 betas, WiFi Calling is so inconsistent. Sometimes it does connect to Turkcell WiFi, sometimes doesn't. Strange
I'm on Three also and it seems to work great. I have a femtocell at home, as a the signal is terrible here, but I find the Wifi Calling generally kicks it at <2 bars signal.

Might be helpful if you actually stated exactly what the bug is! I can tell from your message that you're not a developer

Do you consider a completely new filesystem as a 'feature'? Sometimes technical debt must be repaid. This is that occasion....

It's not so much the battery adjusting, but the charging and battery life reporting calibration. Other than this, yes, a few days' bedding in is required before any sensible observations can be made.

Highly recommend a fresh install - sorted out a lot of the issues I had with these betas. I don't trust multiple delta updates of beats. After the previous beta completely trashed my iPhone, I did a clean install then restore from iCloud. Since then, battery life and other strange glitches have been a thing of the past.
Doing so means that all apps and system files are installed natively installed on the new APPS file system.
I am on a 7 Plus and it's there. You have to be quick to spot it. Slight shift to the left after you tap anywhere after activating 3DT.
On my 7+, I'd say it's noticeably better... almost 18h standby, 5h 23m usage... still 58% battery left.
As I have been reading posts from others with rapid battery drain issues, It has given me cause to focus my comments /concerns about my own battery drain issue and comments.
My primary concern focuses on the battery draining while in sleep / standby mode, which should be near zero for extended standby periods of time. No, not 0%, but say 1% per hour ? Mine drains about 10% per hour in standby, with all apps closed and a 2 minute screen-off setting.

I find that the stuttering animation and lag has returned in the latest beta. Beta 6 was the best. I have also had a problem of spotlight search not working while in the app but working in the home screen particularly for contacts. For e.g. if you search a contacts name in the contacts app nothing shows up but search for the same contact in the home screen search and it shows up. Have reported this to apple as this bug was in last 2 beta versions as well
Mail Notifications vanishing from Notification Center on their own after 5 minutes- even when the mail is not opened and that notification is not cleared manually.
Issue does not resolve even after Reset all Settings.
Issue starts to occur after the Notification Center is cleared once of all the notifications.

Send someone imessage, but when he reads it and dont answer that message status is read. Then kill that imessage app and open it again and status has changed to delivered.
I don't know if it's just me. But 10.3 beta started out very sluggish to my iPhone 7. And it never seems to get better. Apps are still crashing unexpectedly and changes between apps are slow to respond. Wake up and sleep are not any better.
