One of the perks of owning an iPhone is the exceptional support you get from Apple. Software updates, in particular, are typically provided for at least five years after an iPhone model goes on sale – an industry-leading figure, no doubt.
Alas, there comes a time when an iPhone can’t handle the latest iOS version anymore. With today’s announcement at WWDC, a lot of people must be wondering: will my iPhone get iOS 16?
The answer to the question depends on what iPhone model you have, of course. Here’s the official iOS compatibility information provided by Apple itself:
Which iPhones will get the iOS 16 update?
- All iPhone 13 models
- All iPhone 12 models
- All iPhone 11 models
- iPhone XS and XS Max
- iPhone X
- iPhone XR
- iPhone 8 and 8 Plus
- iPhone SE 2020
- iPhone SE 2022
This is the official, Apple-provided list of iPhones compatible with iOS 16. The two oldest iPhone models on it are the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. Both were released in 2017, and it’s cool to see that even a 5-year-old iPhone will get Apple’s latest software.
