iPhone 8 Plus: A recent rumor claims that Apple halted production of the iPhone 8 Plus temporarily, reports BGR. According to this rumor, iPhone 8 Plus production at Wistron was on hold for two weeks. The reason is that the company may have been be using components that were not approved for use in the iPhone 8 Plus. If the rumor is true, these are waterproofing components from a supplier not certified by AAPL.

The new version is available for download via an over-the-air update or from the company’s Developer Center. It’s unknown why the new update came out sooner than others, but it may be to fix harmful bugs from the last update. It could also be that the beta is close to reaching its end.
