iPhone 8 and later are getting iOS 16, support for iPhone 6s, 7 and SE dropped

07 June 2022
iPadOS 16 also drops some old devices - very old, e.g. the iPad Air 2 from 2014. watchOS 9 requires iOS 16, so that may cause some issues if you have an old phone.

Oh damn, i thought iPhone 7 series will at least get one year more but still that's 6 years of support which is amazing.

    the 7’s probably one of the shortest lived (in terms of software support) modern iphones. honestly so sad to see it no longer getting support
