Not correcting you here btw, it’s interesting to note that the first public release of iOS 10 was 10.0.1. I don’t know if perhaps the build that got put on the new iPhones that year was in fact the last beta (with the beta stuff stripped out) and if anyone was able to confirm that before it presumably forced an update to 10.0.1.

My launch day iPhone 7 came with 10.0.1 installed. So while it’s possible there is an iOS 10.0 final build, I can’t confirm what it was.

I would be shocked if it was 10.0 beta 8 though because there were 18 days between that build and the GM. Additionally, the build number increased almost 70 points.
Actually the GM was called 10.0 and was build 14A403 (technically 10.0.1) then the final release was called 10.0.1 but was the same build 14A403. Beta 8 was build 14A5346a.

To the folks who have followed Apple’s release schedule closely:

Do you think Apple will end beta testing on a “b” build?
That has zero to do with it. Just the revision of that particular build. So yeah its possible they will end beta on a 'b' revision.

If I recall correctly, the GM was called 10.0, but was build 10.0.1. I think what GreyOS was asking, was what was the build of 10.0.0 if anyone was able to get their hands on it. Such as a first-run launch day phone.

Not to turn this into the next iPhone speculation thread, but while I was joking about Saturn/Titan earlier, the alleged photo of the new iPhone XS from 9 to 5 Mac makes me wonder if there is something to this:
