Previously, Apple has announced that the 2022 WWDC (Global Developers Conference) will be held on June 6, and the biggest highlight of this conference is undoubtedly the upcoming iOS 16 system. However, recently, foreign media quoted sources as saying that iOS 16 decided to remove the update support for the iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus and the first generation of iPhone SE, which also means that these models will be released nearly seven years later (iPhone SE is six years), and finally "abandoned" by Apple.
iPhone 6s Series
iPhone system updates have always been known for their durability, and due to the powerful performance of Apple's A-series processors, even after several years of release, they can still have good performance, which is also an important reason why Apple has a longer update on old devices. The iPhone 6s series of mobile phones and the first generation of iPhone SE were equipped with the iOS 9 system when they were released, which can be updated until iOS 15, which also reflects Apple's emphasis on the use of old models.
Since its launch in 2015, the iPhone 6s series of mobile phones has received very high attention and sales around the world. According to statistics, the cumulative sales of the iPhone 6s series in the world exceeded 120 million units, and the sales of the first generation of iPhone SE also exceeded 30 million units, considering such a large number of ownership and the excellent performance of the A9 chip, Apple still maintained updates to these models in the iOS 15 system launched last year.
