Apple held a keynote speech at the WWDC Developer Conference early this morning (7th), and also updated the operating systems of its devices simultaneously. However, this year’s new systems, including iOS 16, iPadOS 16, macOS Ventura and watchOS 9, are relatively “strict” overall. Except for “eliminating” more old machines at one time, some new features are limited to a few models. to be used.
Taking iOS 16 as an example, in addition to letting the “one-generation magic machine” iPhone 6S come to an end, Apple no longer supports the latest version of iOS, and even the iPhone 7 is also eliminated. It is rare that two generations of old iPhones are not supported in one iOS update. And some new features, such as Face ID “horizontal unlock”, are only available on some iPhones, but Apple officials have not yet disclosed which styles are supported.
In terms of iPadOS 16, there are many key features that are only available to limited models. For example, the new multitasking operations that are on par with macOS and can greatly improve production are only available for iPads equipped with M1 chips, such as the latest iPad Pro.

In macOS Ventura, because Apple has drastically changed the architecture from Intel processors to its own chips, many new features, such as image text recognition, are no longer available for older machines, and are limited to M1 series chips or the new M2. This macOS update also obsolete the old schedule, and only models following 2017 can be upgraded.
As for watchOS 9, only Apple Watch SE and models following Apple Watch Series 4 can be upgraded. This also means that the Apple Watch Series 3, which is still sold, is one of the very few devices that Apple is still selling but no longer supports the latest version of the operating system.
