There are so many things going on behind the scenes that may not affect you at all such as Apple Pay for other countries or accessibility features that you've never used and possibly didn't know existed. So a comment saying they don't "need" another beta is a little silly.

Beta 2 release today , tomorrow or Friday . Or maybe next week . iOS 10.3.3 will probably be the last iOS update for me.If Apple releases an iOS 10.3.4 beta after WWDC .I will certainly wait for iOS 11 public beta

iOS 10 beta progress is very similar to iOS 9 beta... and betas: 2 weeks, 2 weeks, one week, one week, 2/3? weeks before final
So iOS 10.3.3 will be out probbably on July 17 (maybe on July 10 - beta of iOS 10.3.3 was day after iOS 10.3.2, but iOS 9.3.3 beta was week after iOS 9.3.2)...

Meh, I don't think you can read that much into it. Just because it follows similar patterns doesn't mean it will. By that logic, we should have an an iOS 5.3.5 (because iOS 4 stopped at 4.3.5), yet it stopped at 5.1.1. Or iOS 9 should have gotten an iOS 9.4 because of iOS 8.4.

Every year has its own twists and turns and differs slightly. The only thing that remains almost untouched is how build numbers work.

I can not for different iOS versions... But if there is big similarity in iOS 9 and iOS 10 to X.3.2, there will probbably be for X.3.3 too.
And there are things, where is company still the same... In some strategy... Because of that I can read many things...

I think we see the next beta on Tuesday or Wednesday next week. And that will be it for betas for iOS 10. The release version will likely ship on WWDC keynote day. And then we're on to iOS11 (barring some security issue requiring another x.x.x release, which likely would not require a beta outside of Apple's own internal betas).

And I'm fine with all of that: betas at this point are tiny refinements, not the big new features we all really crave!

Those who want/need to test it, do, those who don't (for whatever reason) don't. It doesn't hurt to have the option for it.

Wont be surprised if 10.3.3 is actually released next week. Only difference I see is modem firmware was updated from 2.61 to 2.70. Mostly been on wifi since update but will be testing cellular this weekend to see if anything seems better or worse or same. Also will be testing various BT devices this weekend as well. BT headset been working pretty much the same so far.

Do you really know what's in it? Perhaps it is fixing an error that is serious but appears only infrequently. Don't you think it would be better in such a case to have as wide a test group as possible?

I'm sure these betas can be a headache at times for Apple; they won't do them if they don't think it will be of some benefit.

Just because you don't see any cool new features doesn't mean the testing is not worthwhile.

Apple can release another beta this week , or release the public version.

iOS 11 beta 1 will be released on June 5 anyway.
