iOS 16 drops support for iPhone 6S, 7 and the first-gen SE
, it's safe to say those are showing their age. If anything, it's a testament to their staying power that Apple supported them all the way up to iPadOS 15.. Apple Watch Series 3 users were able to install watchOS 7 and watchOS 8, but some features weren't available.
It's always sad to see Apple bid older devices adieu, even though all of the models it will no longer support were all released at least five years ago — the iPad Air 2 and 2013 Mac Pro in particular had a good innings. While folks will still be able to use older models, Apple will surely be hoping that those clinging onto them will upgrade in the near future.All products recommended by Engadget are selected by our editorial team, independent of our parent company.
