iOS 8 beta 6 available for some operators

iOS beta 8 6

iOS 8 beta 6 is already circulating in some iPhone models associated with certain operators, this is assured by the BGR medium that has published a photograph that proves it. In this photograph we can see that the build of the sixth beta of iOS 8 is 12A363d and little else.

It is not the first time that Apple adopts a similar strategy in a beta, this is intended to be able to thoroughly test its operation and receive the approval of the operators telecommunications that, after all, are those that provide service to the iPhone to call and have 3G or LTE connectivity. 

Yesterday Apple released a new version of OS X Yosemite, however, nothing was said about a new beta of iOS 8. With this news we know that the beta exists and is in the hands of some specific developers but unfortunately, cannot be downloaded as has happened with previous builds. It seems that the reason that has led Apple to make this decision is that we are already very close to a Golden Master version of iOS 8, that is, a version that has all the ballots to become the one that is finally released officially during the iPhone 6 presentation event.
