It’s usual for Apple to stop supporting some iPhones when a new iOS version launches. That’s not, however, the case for the models compatible with iOS 18, announced today. All devices that run iOS 17 will receive the new version.
That’s because some features require more processing power than these models can provide. Here’s the list of which iPhones will receive the update.
