iOS 27 will be unveiled on June 8 at WWDC, and rumors indicate the software update could drop support for four iPhone models. Here are the details.
We’re getting close to Apple’s big iOS 27 unveiling at WWDC, with rumored features that include Siri’s major overhaul, Liquid Glass design changes, and more.
But will your iPhone support the new update?
Some years Apple drops compatibility for older iPhone models, while at other times it doesn’t. But a recent leak indicates there will be a change coming with iOS 27.
Last month Weibo leaker Instant Digital posted a full list of what’s claimed to be all iOS 27-supported iPhone models.
Four models that can run iOS 26 are missing from the list:
Per the leaker’s post, iOS 27 will require an iPhone 12 or later. And while iOS 26 supported the second-gen iPhone SE, the new update will only run on iPhone SE 3 or later.
If this proves true, it will make two years in a row that Apple dropped several iPhone models from its major iOS update. Last year the iPhone XS generation missed out.
Apple will continue supporting iOS 26 with new updates, but they’ll be limited to bug fixes and security improvements after iOS 27 debuts.
It’s worth noting, however, that many of iOS 27’s tentpole features are expected to involve Apple Intelligence—which requires iPhone 15 Pro or later.
So even if your iPhone can still run iOS 27, it may or may not support all of the forthcoming features.
Would you be surprised if Apple dropped the iPhone 11 line from supporting iOS 27? Let us know in the comments.
