Am I going to be able to update my watch to the new beta despite being on 13.1?
Yes, just did that.

Whew, that is a really interesting theory and I’m not going to argue against it. But what about future massive deliveries... would Apple really pull a financial stunt like this on a rather small batch of iPhones when future mass production units still might get hit by import fees? Also, remember that a great deal of iPhones are sold outside the U.S. which means those will never be hit by import fees due to the trade war between U.S. and China. The latter speaks against your theory, but I’m not saying your wrong. You could actually be correct. If so, then Apple is darn clever handling the risk for extra iPhone costs.My (very preliminary) theory: With the trade war between the US and China, Apple possibly has already built and shipped its launch batch of iPhones (normally, that would still be 2 weeks from now). Those had to have iOS 13 on them when they shipped, so they installed a build we've already seen. They will hit the shelves on Sept 20 and iOS 13.1 will be ready for them to update then or shortly after.
This may also explain some things, such as why items like automations were removed. If it wasn't ready for prime time during the beta prior to when they were removed, they were taken out. That way, if Apple did pull the trigger on early shipment, they wouldn't be caught with half-baked software.
Can anyone with gen 2 AirPods confirm "Announce with Siri" is still missing? Not seeing it with my gen 1 AirPods.
Apple sells several 10s of millions of iPhones in the launch window (launch +2/3 weeks post). If their margins on these are 35%, and they had to drop their internal sales price to absorb the additional tariffs, that could be a very large financial hit for them. They especially don't want to take this hit during the October-December quarter, which was bad for them last year. I think the vast majority of launch window sales are to the US, so it makes sense for them to ship a large slug early as a hedge.Whew, that is a really interesting theory and I’m not going to argue against it.

One bug I’ve run into so far is you can’t adjust photos as a wallpaper. No zooming or panning.
No issues whatsoever here with Messages on an iPhone Xs running iOS 13.1 betat
Thanks! holding off then.

MacOS Catalina Beta 6(?) is not seeing the new 13.1 XS Max....
They could actually be sending every new units straight to the U.S. to make sure they are safe from import fees. That could also mean Europe will be getting a later release date than the U.S.Apple sells several 10s of millions of iPhones in the launch window (launch +2/3 weeks post).

Seeing the same here but only visible in “light” mode. Dark mode looks just blank. Hoping that it just needs to index or something. If you go to share ETA from maps, it does show the contacts properly.so when you use the share sheet, you don't see blurred out contacts on the share sheet?
The blur is still there on dark mode. Look closer (if you’re viewing on OLED)Seeing the same here but only visible in “light” mode. Dark mode looks just blank. Hoping that it just needs to index or something. If you go to share ETA from maps, it does show the contacts properly.
This makes the most sense to me.I have a feeling new iPhones will ship with 13.0 and be asked to update to 13.1 on launch date.
