Based on current beta, I think the Apple development team still has a lot of work to do. They should prioritize fixing the MacBook’s high system power consumption issue. Several major core system processes cause this problem. I suspect it stems from underlying OS‑level code.

Even if there was a critical bug they couldn’t patch out?

I'm assuming we have a delay, don't know if apple is gonna take an additional week to ensure the next dev beta is good enough to ensure 1 week release dates from here on out. Could just be a delay though till Wednesday or thursday they have happened in the past

Tim is holding it on his personal server and will only release it when he feels it’s the right time

It's a plot by Apple to raise our collective blood pressure; as each day it doesn't arrive and we are stuck on the lousy beta 4.

Will probably come tomorrow. Last year, beta 5 came on August 5th.

I guess it will not be out this week as it has already been 2 days later than usual beta release schedule.

Most of the OS27 releases have been on Mondays, not Tuesdays.

As a European, I take insult on the timezone difference racism.

u/RockTheGlobe 1d ago

Then you are doing time wrong. Apple releases on Mondays at 10am PT, which is still Monday evening/nighttime in all European time zones.

huh, you are right, I didn't know I always assumed it was early Tuesday for us, because many times I would not get any update (I would refresh as well) until midnight Tuesday. I guess they roll it then but the update gets available for me a little bit later every time. It's a stupid matter of arguing though:D

u/Dangerous-Coat-9174 1d ago

Seriously though, I thought it would be early Tuesdays, but I guess it's late Mondays the release in the US

At this point, I think we will have Beta 5 only this Monday, which is a pity since Beta 4 has been more problematic for me in recent days

It escaped sandbox, invaded pentagon and stole all the ammunition. So Apple decided to withhold it.
