Apple has been looking to improve the iOS 16 firmware with each update. Firstly, iOS 16 had a number of bugs, which was the reason many users held back from updating to the latest firmware. The situation got better with iOS 16.1 and things are expected to get even better with the iOS 16.2 update. The update is currently being tested and would take a couple of weeks to go live for the public. As per reports, 5G support is now rolling out to Indian variant of iPhones via iOS 16.2 Beta 2 update.
