¿Qué trae iOS 17.3 beta 3? Review completa y pruebas de rendimiento en iPhone
Hello everyone, friends, and welcome to The Bitten Apple. Apple started the year earlier than we expected with the launch last week of the second betas of upcoming updates of their operating systems. Although, It must be said, it was not the beginning of year that they surely expected, since they had to remove beta 2 from their servers iOS 17.3 due to a problem that blocked the Many users’ iPhones right after installing it. And look, the first beta of iOS 17.3 tells us It left very good feelings. If you remember, This incorporated a new function called Protection
for stolen devices that, precisely, adds an extra layer of security to our iPhone and asking that changes can be made in certain critical security settings without prior validation with Face ID or Touch ID. And it also brought back collaborative playlists in Apple Music that we saw in the iOS betas 17.2 but that in the final version they decided to eliminate. Well, days have passed and it was not until Yesterday Apple released a new beta of iOS 17.3, specifically beta 3, skipping, Therefore, the second one that they removed completely. So, yes, in this video I am
going to tell you everything you need to know about this third beta, which, in addition, It looks like it will be the last one
it is the final beta before the release of the Release version Candidate, which is usually the final version which comes out for everyone a few days later. At the end of the video, anyway, I will tell you the exact date that Apple think it’s going to release this update. The modem firmware is 1.40.01, which was updated with respect to the two first betas of this version. This means that this beta has been able to correct any bug that Apple found regarding to wireless connections, in addition to improving performance a little. The first change I want
to highlight in this video is one that we could already see in the beta 1, but I didn’t mention it in the video we made. And these are the new settings for the diary app, which now allow us many more configurations, mainly related to permissions accessed by the application. This is better this way because if we want to withdraw certain permissions of the diary app, we can do it directly from here without need of having to go to privacy and filter from there for each category, which is more cumbersome. The Apple Vision Pro is just
around the corner. Specifically, it will go on sale on February 2, as we have known this week. And one of the features that we can use with our iPhone to get more out of it is video recording in spatial format and then be able to play it on this device. This type of recording, if you remember, we can do it from the iOS update 17.2 that came out at the end of last year. Now, with iOS 17.3, when we open the app camera and let’s activate this type of recording, the first time we do it
we will get this new welcome screen to let us know that this format is designed for the Apple Vision Pro, in addition to giving us some recommendations like not moving the iPhone during recording. Another function that has been refined in recent times two betas is the protection for stolen devices. If we go into the Face ID settings and try to activate this function, We will see how the presentation screen looks has been modified, adding changes to the texts of this to better explain the operation of the function. The operation has also been corrected, which meant
that in beta 1 it did not always detect good when you were away from a location known and therefore did not ask you to validate changes after 60 minutes, just as I showed you in the beta 1 video. If we go to the feedback app, we can see that the only report from Apple is related with a problem that they have solved with the APIs related to transactions, which could give an unexpected error if The purchase price of the transaction was a very large number. Honestly, I tell you from the bottom of my heart, I
don’t know Why does Apple have an app like this? Not only does it often not make an accurate report of the changes it makes, but also, Hey, it never says the additions that does, for example, How do you see what I am telling you in this video, it doesn’t mention it anywhere. It’s time to talk about performance and battery. Let’s see, after installing beta 3 on my iPhone 15 Pro Max, I made its corresponding performance test with the Geekbench app, which, as I have always been telling you, measures processor performance on tasks single-core and multi-core.
These were their scores, 2931 points in single core tasks and 7192 points on tasks that require the use of multiple cores. If we compare these scores with those obtained in the first beta, We see how there was a slight drop in performance multi-core and with respect to beta 2, That’s good, well we didn’t make a video, but we did I was able to install it before they removed it, We also see how, Well, the results are practically identical. In any case, if we put in the graph iOS 17.2 data and compare, continue counting on better
results, which, Hey, it’s positive. On the iPhone 11 I also did the performance test and the scores were these. In the single core test I got 1795 points and in the multicore test 3999 points. Here we can see a slight improvement in performance of the processor in single core tasks Regarding beta 1 and iOS 17.2, but a drop, not very big, in multi-core performance. But come on, taking into account the variability What is there in this type of apps with the scores between test and test, We can conclude that the performance It will not be
affected at all when you update. And as for the battery, let’s see, Let me tell you. I have been able to try during all these Christmases the first beta of iOS 17.3 and I must say that, Let’s see, I didn’t feel the performance was bad, but worse than in iOS 17.2. I was playing a lot on the iPhone, I threw of 5G on many occasions to be able to play remotely from outside the home and, hey, It is true that the iPhone still held up like a champ, But I have noticed a little more consumption
in general. And with beta 2, which I have been using since which came out a few days ago, The story has not been very different. As you can see, I have had a consumption that is around 60-70% per day, with very similar hours of use which I show you in all these videos. To give you an idea, my consumption is barely was over 50% with iOS 17.2, so I assumed yes, unfortunately, this update may skyrocket battery consumption on many iPhones, At least in my case that’s how it has been. And when will we see iOS
17.3 and, of course, the rest of the updates that are going to come out with this one? Well, if we go to the calendar to see the deadlines that are managed, well lets see, taking into account that the build number of this version ends in the letter A, I think if nothing happens, next Tuesday or Wednesday we should see the Release Candidate version of these new operating systems and, therefore, its final release now for the whole world It would be scheduled for the following Monday, that is, Monday, January 22. Anyway, We will see in a
few days if the deadlines are confirmed. In any case, well, you have seen, it is not a version that incorporate big changes, beyond function for the protection of stolen devices which, hey, I do find it very useful, and those expected by many collaborative playlists from Apple Music. However, My feelings are not very good. At the performance level, yes there is a slight improvement, but an improvement over the last version, but the bug we saw in Beta 2, well, it was a mistake that cannot be allowed to a company like Apple. It is true that it
was in a Beta and has not been in the final version, but even so it leaves you a little confused behind the ear. And at the battery level I have noticed a decrease considerable and it tastes pretty bad to me because I think that with iOS 17.2 and 17.2.1 we saw an improvement and, well, I think that all, or a large part of many users, we celebrate it. And with this it seems that we are going to go back. Anyway, a disaster? Well I do not know. I think everyone can answer that question. for yourself
