I think tommorow final same as GM and week later 11.0.1 and BETA 11.1
Yes the 11.0 will be the same build. But, there could be an 11.0.1 that actually releases instead. That happened last year for iOS 10. But the iOS 11 that is on the new shipping iP8's will be the same build as the current GM.
Could there be an upcoming beta tomorrow after GM is released? Apple needs to have the developers test something at some point . .
Yes possibly. Geekbench screenshots have already shown Apple testing 11.1 for the iphone X (purportedly will ship with 11.1); so if they want it to release Nov 3 loaded on the device, then betas would start soon.
They also still need to get Apple Pay Cash out as well.
Last year 10.1 beta 1 was 1 week after the ios10 official release; but the 10 release was earlier than this year on 9/13 not 9/19.
So I would say mid/late this week or early next week for 11.1 beta 1

May i ask something? Why do people think Apple will release iOS 11.1 Beta right after iOS 11 Public? Does Apple even do that?
They did it last year like the day after the iPhone 7 was released. They also did it before the iPhone 6s was released
Kind of correct. iOS 9.1 B1 was seeded the same day as the GM of 9.0. 10.1 B1 came out 8 days after 10.0.1 was seeded publicly. But iOS 11 is way more buggy that iOS 10. So I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a 11.0.1/11.0.2 or even 11.0.3 before 11.1 beta gets seeded. Apple has been testing X.x.x builds lately. They didn’t do that really in iOS 9 times.
I wouldn't be surprised if the version released tonight isn't the same as the GM.
The beta cycle was anyway strange with a lot of people here who were surprised by new betas even if they were not "supposed to happen" so everything is possible
I’m fairly confident that the GM will be the same as public, because typically the will release a GM candidate update if it changes. But I suspect we will have 11.0.1 by the end of next week.I wouldn't be surprised if the version released tonight isn't the same as the GM.

You know better than i do
Anyway since I have the GM since last week what I'm waiting for the most is WatchOS 4
It’s not that I know better. It’s just that it would make sense for them to seed a GM update to the beta testers to make sure nothing is broken before going worldwide.You know better than i do

Testers didn’t see the updated version of 9 to the public or 10.0.1.
I’m fully expecting today’s build to be a few version numbers higher than GM.
What? 10.0.1 was the GM...
Also, iOS 9 GM was the same as public release. There were different build numbers for different devices.
iOS 9.0 GM was 13A340. Depending on your device, you might have gotten 342, 343 or 344 as an update. But, some devices still received 13A340 as final.

I've got the GM on my 10.5 and there was no new release for me. I did notice a long term spinning circle on the upper right column by my Wifi icon that went for hours yesterday and this morning.
There wouldn’t be a new release yet (if there is at all) since it’s being released to the public at 10am Pacific time.
