How to update?
If you want to update your iPhone or iPad, it is not complicated. You just need to go to Settings -> General -> Software Update, to find, download, and install the new update. If you have set automatic updates, you don't have to worry about anything and iOS or iPadOS 14.3 will be installed automatically at night, i.e. if the iPhone or iPad is connected to power.
I observe overall system acceleration on the iPhone 7.
The most important news for me (even though I understand that I'm in the minority): PAL formats for video recording - so when processing video there will no longer be a problem with 30/60fps, but it is finally possible to record even 25fps = the standard in our country!!! Finally!
iPhone 12 PRO MAX - acceleration after installation (perceived, I did not measure).
QI wireless charging on my off-brand charger works again after the update.
