Apple took the wraps off iOS 16 today at WWDC. Below is the list of compatible devices with iOS 16, set to arrive this fall:
- iPhone XS
- iPhone XS Max
- iPhone XR
- iPhone X
- iPhone 8
- iPhone 8 Plus
- iPhone SE (2nd generation or later)
- iPhone 13
- iPhone 13 mini
- iPhone 13 Pro
- iPhone 13 Pro Max
- iPhone 12
- iPhone 12 mini
- iPhone 12 Pro
- iPhone 12 Pro Max
- iPhone 11
- iPhone 11 Pro
- iPhone 11 Pro Max
You’ll notice support has dropped the iPhone SE (1st gen) with the A9 chip and iPod touch (7th gen) with A10 chip from the list, so that means those devices won’t be able to get iOS 16.
The last version of iOS 15 supported the iPhone 6s, 6s plus, 7, and 7 plus. Now it looks like Apple has dropped support for all of those iPhones.
A lot more than the SE 1 and iPod touch were dropped. The whole 6s series and 7 series were dropped as well.
