The next iPhone update will land in a matter of days but it looks like there may have been a surprise change. Here’s what’s happening.

While iOS 18.3 does offer new features, none of them are what most users would consider game-changing to the overall iOS 18 experience. That is to say, if you don't like what Apple is doing with its latest OS versions and Apple Intelligence, nothing about this new version is likely to convert you.

This reliable indicator suggests the next version of the iPhone's system software is just about ready for release.

OS 18.3 is expected to be widely released next week, and that means the first iOS 18.4 beta for iPhones should be just around the corner.
