Apple has just released for download iOS 26.5.1 IPSW links and OTA update for some iPhone models, specifically iPhone Air and iPhone 17 series, including the flagship iPhone 17 Pro Max.
The release comes three weeks after final version release of iOS 26.5 and just a week ahead of WWDC where Apple will preview iOS 27 for the very first time.
To get the OTA update, head over to Settings > General > Software Update section of the device and grab the OTA update from there.

According to official release notes of iOS 26.5.1, Apple says:
This update addresses an issue for a small number of users that may prevent wired charging on iPhone Air and iPhone 17 models when the battery is nearly drained.
