If the final of this (what it seems to be already) is released months ahead of iOS 11, I am 99% sure there will be another version. May it be 10.3.4 or even 10.4.

Edit: And if there is no public release this week, they might rebrand it to 10.4 and start over with Beta 1.
Um. What? I think you are missing the /s.

And if you are serious, not a chance. That will never happen.

10.3.3 is it for iOS 10 unless of an emergency security update. iOS 11 will be here in less than 2 months.

I am just wondering why there is such a long gap between the "GM (candidate)" and the public release and also had those "emergency security updates" in mind, not really a new beta.
And 9.3.3 had been released two (?) days earlier last year although WWDC was later. But who knows... We don't even know yet when the iPhone event is this year what might or might not be the same day of the iOS 11 release.

9.3.4 + 9.3.5 both were security updates without any beta, if I remember correctly. I have to look it up... High chance this might happen again.

But, yes it might simply be they want to make 10.3.3 as perfect as possible for the devices that won't get 11 and might "delay" it until they are 100% sure they don't need another update, maybe they even sit out the risk of an emergency update.

The 10.4 rebranding idea was just because of that very suspicious rumor in mind, together with that long gap mentioned before and those many betas for a x.x.x version (I know it happened before).

We might know more in four hours. ;)

Nothing else will enter beta for iOS 10 after 10.3.3, even if we got a 10.3.4. The is because it is now impossible to get the PB file for iOS 10. Apple only has the iOS 11 PB profile available. iOS 10 betas are done as soon as 10.3.3 drops to the public.

I really don't know why people wanting 10.3.3 haven't just installed beta 6. Its going to be the same. Kind of evident at this point.

Mmm technically it's the opposite, the more time passes, the more it's probable that the final version will be another build...
P.S. sorry for my english

I didn't search a lot to find the ipsw file to update my iPad. I thought that would be out sooner and update OTA, but maybe I'll go that route...

This has happened another times, Apple is probably sitting on the final version looking at analytics. The final version will be almost certainly beta 6.

Actually, there are past examples of exactly this happening. A final beta is seeded and 2-3 weeks go by and the same exact build is released. iOS 9.2 and iOS 9.2.1 are perfect examples of this. Additionally, this is how it works with the GM of a X.0 build every single year. The final build is seeded 3+ weeks before the event where the GM comes out.

iOS 9.3.3 B5 was the final version, it was seeded to developers 11 days before the public. We are only 4 days later than that.

Possible not the same build at this point BUT b6 is working better than any other 10.x builds so yeah, update to that and be happy. IF another build ever drops then update again. Problem solved.

I still believe it will be the same build. There are plenty of examples of Apple doing this exact same thing in the past. As I edited my posted above. 9.3.3 did the same exact thing.

im glad it wasn't released, beta 6 sucked on my phone and it was a fresh install. iphone7 so I dont wanna hear it haha
Absolutely zero issues with my Air 2 and 7 Plus. Much more stable than 10.3.2, better battery life too. Not much better, but still a little bit.
