Complete list of iPhone and iPad that can update to iOS 18 and iPadOS 18
If there is something that has traditionally characterized an iPhone, it is its extensive update support. And although Android is getting its act together with manufacturers like Samsung with the Galaxy S24 or Google with its Pixel 8, both guaranteeing seven years of support, Apple continues to have the lead over many other manufacturers. Seven years are precisely the most that Apple has given to an iPhone model and it seems that now they will match it in more models thanks to iOS 18. The same happens with the iPad and iPadOS 18.
It was after WWDC 2024 when Compatible devices have been officially confirmed with the new versions. Of course, some of them will not have access to news regarding AI.
