It may happen that your Sailfish OS phone doesn't catch the OTA update, even outside the Early Release case.

Force the update using the Terminal.
The video covers all the steps, from SSH connection with password creation, to the official terminal commands to update "manually".
// Warning // in the video the placeholder password "123456" is used, never use a password like this! Also remember - if not necessary - to disable SSH connections after the update.
Good vision J-D
