Public: Apple (AAPL) has released the third public betas of iOS 10 and macOS Sierra, reports AppleInsider. The new betas were released just one day after developers got their hands on the beta 4 versions of these upcoming operating systems. The iOS 10 public beta 3 can be downloaded via the Software Update option or from iTunes. The new version of the macOS Sierra public beta can be obtained from the Mac App Store. These updates likely share much of the same content that was discovered in the developer betas released yesterday.

Leaks: More images of the upcoming iPhone 7 have been leaked, BGR notes. A new set of images show off what could be possible dummy units of the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. The two units are shown next to each other. They both include the company’s logo on the back, as well as label markings near the bottom. The iPhone 7 Plus features the larger dual-lens camera and the iPhone 7 has a larger camera than the iPhone 6s. There is no Smart Connector on the iPhone 7 Plus, which has been a rumored feature with much debate surrounding it.

Battery: The battery from an iPhone 6 exploded on a cyclist in Sydney, reports The Sydney Morning Herald. The battery from the iPhone 6 exploded after the cyclist, Gareth Clear, fell from his bicycle on Sunday. The impact caused the lithium ion battery to explode and it left him with third-degree burns on the back of his thigh. He had to undergo a skin graft following the accident. Apple hasn’t released a statement on the incident, but it is in contact with Clear.
