If this rumor proves to be accurate, the iOS 18 will be the last version that supports iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR. However, even after the device 26 is released, we will continue to receive security updates for the future.
IOS 26 will be compatible with the following iPhone model according to this rumor:
- iPhone 16E
- iPhone 16
- iPhone 16 Plus
- iPhone 16 Pro
- iPhone 16 Pro Max
- iPhone 15
- iPhone 15 Plus
- iPhone 15 Pro
- iPhone 15 Pro Max
- iPhone 14
- iPhone 14 Plus
- iPhone 14 Pro
- iPhone 14 Pro Max
- iPhone 13
- iPhone 13 mini
- iPhone 13 Pro
- iPhone 13 Pro Max
- iPhone 12
- iPhone 12 mini
- iPhone 12 Pro
- iPhone 12 Pro Max
- iPhone 11
- iPhone 11 Pro
- iPhone 11 Pro Max
- iPhone SE (Second generation or later)
Of course, iOS 26 will also be compatible with all the future iPhone 17 models.
As usual, some features will be unavailable on the old iPhone model. For example, Apple Intelligence requires iPhone 15 Pro or Newer.
Last year, the same account had accurately leaked the iOS 18 compatibility details, so there is a good chance that their latest information is true.
The first iOS 26 Beta should be released on 9 June after WWDC 2025 Keenote, and all should be released in September.
