It looks like Apple is set to discontinue support for some of its older devices with the release of iOS 17. According to reports, the upcoming operating system will no longer be compatible with the iPhone X, the first-generation iPad Pro, and other devices.
This news comes as a surprise to many users who have been using these devices for years. The iPhone X was released in 2017 and was one of the most popular iPhones ever released. The first-generation iPad Pro was released in 2015 and was the first iPad to feature a 12.9-inch display.
The discontinuation of support for these devices means that users will no longer be able to upgrade their devices to the latest version of iOS. This could be a major issue for those who rely on their devices for work or other important tasks.
Fortunately, Apple has said that it will continue to provide security updates and bug fixes for these devices. This means that users can still keep their devices secure and running smoothly, even if they can’t upgrade to the latest version of iOS.
It’s important to note that this isn’t the first time Apple has discontinued support for older devices. In the past, Apple has discontinued support for older iPhones and iPads with the release of new operating systems.
It’s unclear why Apple has chosen to discontinue support for these devices, but it’s likely due to hardware limitations or other factors. Whatever the reason, it’s important for users to be aware that their devices may no longer be compatible with the latest version of iOS.
For those who are still using these devices, it’s important to be aware that they may not be able to upgrade to iOS 17 when it is released. It’s also important to keep an eye out for any security updates or bug fixes that Apple may release for these devices in the future.
