Apple users looking forward to the next major operating system release can now check if their current device makes the cut. According to a report by Mashable, a total of 29 iPhone models are slated to support the upcoming software update and its public beta.
Broad hardware compatibility ensures that users holding onto previous-generation devices can still benefit from modern software enhancements, refreshed interface capabilities, and critical security patches. The public beta phase allows adventurous owners to test early builds and explore new tools ahead of the official general release.
While recent flagship releases are essentially guaranteed ongoing support, older models are routinely phased out as system requirements evolve. Confirming compatibility early gives owners a clear picture of whether their handset will receive the update or if an upgrade may soon be necessary.
