Can an I-485 case progress without any silent updates?

I'm just curious about other people's experiences.

Has anyone had their I-485 transferred to a field office or even approved without seeing any silent updates after biometrics?

In my case, I only had the biometrics-related updates on the day of my appointment, and nothing since then.

I'm wondering if it's common for cases to remain completely quiet and then suddenly get transferred to a field office or approved, or if most people see at least one silent update before that happens.

I'd appreciate hearing about your timelines and experiences. Thanks!
