hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and today Apple released iOS 12.3 beta
6 this is available to developers and public beta testers and came in at a
pretty small eighty-three point two megabytes on my iPhone XR now that
size could vary for you depending on which device you're on it could be a
little bit more or less it just depends but let's take a look at the build
number now you can see the build is 16 f5 156 a and this particular build is
getting very close to the final release there's actually nothing new in the
notes for the developer notes there's also nothing new that we can find anyway
as far as the overall interface or changes anywhere there may be tiny font
changes or things like that but even the modem number or the modem firmware and
also the carrier settings seem to be all the same although they are tweaking them
here and there so there isn't really anything on the surface that looks new
nothing like that just behind the scenes bug fixes getting it ready for public
release and we should see that public release on maybe next week or the week
after and or maybe even at the end of the month since we're getting ready for
the iOS 12.3 TV update that's really what this update is all about this TV
app here that I have on the iPad where you can subscribe to different services
so you can subscribe to HBO Showtime Cinemax Starz whatever you'd like and
more and more services will be added to that and more countries as well
now as far as anything else new in this don't really expect anything new at all
until we get to iOS 13 which comes out in the beginning of June at least for
beta testers and then later in the year in September in September it will be
available to everyone usually when the new iPhones come out now this particular
build the last build was ok battery life was not phenomenal but it was ok if we
take a look at the battery life on this device I have a hundred percent and
you'll see here we have my best day anyway 5 hours and 5 minutes screen on
time 2 hours and 51 minutes of screen off time that was using Twitter spark
Tesla Gmail and a few other I used it pretty heavily that day and at
the end of the day I only had about 20% battery life left no so far beta six
seems to be nice and smooth in fact I've tried it on the older devices such as
the SE here the SC scrolling is nice and smooth I haven't had any lock ups in
settings I know that was an issue for some people in previous builds it seems
like it's working ok there if we go into something like music you'll see it's
nice and fast and fluid even on the iPhone 6s plus which is around the same
sort of era it is about the same so scrolling is nice and smooth
rotation is fine if you have one of the plus devices and can use landscape
everything works well 3d touch is working just fine
and you'll see apps are pretty fast overall they load pretty quickly I
haven't had any issues in fact I think they've really improved speed with this
particular update and that's the main fix I think so I would expect bug fixes
maybe some security fixes in the background and nothing spectacular so we
will see that hopefully in a couple of weeks we'll have the final release and
then in the beginning of June we'll see iOS 13 now I did run a Geekbench on all
of these just to give you a reference let's take a look at the XS Max first
and we'll go to our benchmarks and you'll see single core was four thousand
seven hundred and seventy-eight whereas multi-core was eleven thousand one
hundred and sixty two the history if we take a look at that it's about the same
so as long as we're close to the other numbers everything should be pretty fast
and fluid it's definitely much better than the earlier built down here where
we were in the ten thousands for the multi-core benchmark scores let me set
up the others so you can get a quick reference as to what the other devices
are so here's a look at the iPad pro Geekbench scores the iPhone 6s plus the
iPhone XR the iPhone se and the XS max so that should give you an idea of
what yours should be near or close to now aside from all of the other
information there were some rumors that the iPhone se may not be included with
iOS 13 and I find that to be kind of strange I would expect that anything
from the SE to the 6s 6s plus to be in iOS 13s included supported library of
devices but it seems that some we're saying it may not be I have a hard
time believing that but we'll only know that for sure in June when we have more
information at WWDC so let me know what you think in the comments below of
course I'll link this wallpaper in the description as I always do if you
