FYI, here is what I see in Software Update on an iPhone 12 mini that is running iOS 17.7.



Here is what I see in the Finder, when running macOS Ventura 13.7.1.



I do not know what would happen if I clicked "Check for Update" – whether iTunes would then notice that iOS 18.2 was available, or if it would just check for a later release of iOS 17. For now, I am keeping my iPhone on iOS 17.
