There are still several months to officially see iOS 15, but we are already having information about what will be the next big update for the iPhone. Unlike the products, the software is more complicated to be filtered because they are projects that are tightly closed and in which only Apple intervenes without the need to integrate third parties such as in the manufacture of an iPhone, iPad or Mac. months talking about which would be the compatible equipment.
Three iPhones would be left out
It is foreseeable that after two years with identical upgradeable devices, Apple will leave a generation of iPhone out of this update. This was confirmed several months ago by several leakers and it has again reminded iPhonesoft recently. The iPhone 6s, 6s Plus and SE (1st generation) will stay with iOS 14 and will not update to this new iOS 15. Therefore, the devices that would finally be compatible with this software are the following:
- iPhone 7
- iPhone 7 Plus
- iPhone 8
- iPhone 8 Plus
- iPhone X
- iPhone XS
- iPhone XS Max
- iPhone XR
- iPhone 11
- iPhone 11 Pro
- iPhone 11 Pro Max
- iPhone SE (2nd generation)
- iPhone 12
- iPhone 12 mini
- iPhone 12 Pro
- iPhone 12 Pro Max
It should be noted that although it seems that the iPhone 7 is on the wire, this future iOS 15 could not be its latest version of software. They can probably go up to iOS 16, although that is already something far away and what is certain is that they will be able to continue enjoying updates for another year if this premise is met, although they would be the devices that would mark the cut-off line.
When will iOS 15 be introduced and released?
Apple introduces its new software at its annual developer-focused conferences, the WWDC for the World Wide Developers Conference. These are days that are normally held in June, with the first day being the most public for making a live broadcast and with invited press to present the new versions of iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS and some sporadic product as was the Mac Pro in 2019.
The past 2020 was strange due to the pandemic, so the company was forced to carry out this event online. This year it remains an unknown whether or not the company will be able to celebrate these days in person, although in any case the dates do not seem to vary from June , so it will be this month when we can see this iOS 15 officially. Of course, it will enter beta phases during the summer months and until September at least it will not be launched for all users.
