Apple iOS 26 update will be available in the next few months, around the time when the iPhone 17 series is announced. But we already know a lot about the new version, its features and which iPhones will be supported by the new iOS update this year.

iOS 26 gets the biggest design overhaul since iOS 7 according to Apple, and visually you can see them making a difference with mixed results.

But the new iOS update also means that some of the older iPhone models see their update cycle end and this year is going to be no different. 

iOS 26 Update Coming Soon: These iPhones Will Support It 

As you can see from the list here, Apple will offer the new iOS 26 update for iPhone models starting from 11 going up to the latest available 16 Pro Max variant. The list also confirms that iPhone X, Xs and Xr versions will no longer get iOS updates from the company and these users should now upgrade to any of the models mentioned above. 

It is intriguing to see the iPhone SE 2nd gen model included in the support list but if you want the latest Apple AI features, you will need to have the iPhone 15 Pro or newer models. 

iOS 26 developer beta is already available for users but do not install on your primary device and wait for the public beta update in July. 

The company has also made it clear that the Intel-powered Macs are no longer in its focus which is why the macOS 26 Tahoe update will be the last that these Macs will be getting. This means anybody still using a MacBook Air, Pro and iMac with Intel CPU should upgrade before the macOS 27 version comes out next year.
