iOS 17: Which phones are supported by the new OS? | Macworld

If you have an iPhone 8 or iPhone X—or even something older—and are excited about the new features in iOS 17, you might want to consider an upgrade this fall. When the update is released later this year (likely in September), it will drop support for the iPhone 8 and iPhone X that are currently supported by iOS 16.

By then, those phones will be six years old. Apple generally supports iPhones up to about five years old with its latest operating systems, and of course, some features require even newer hardware to be supported.

Here are the phones with which you’ll be able to use iOS 17.

Of course, some features simply require newer hardware than what you’ll find in an iPhone XR. The enhanced autocorrect that uses a new machine learning model and supports in-line corrections and full-sentence completions requires an iPhone 12 or later, for example. Other features require other specific new hardware. For instance, while FaceTime on Apple TV will work with any iPhone that supports iOS 17, it requires a 2nd-generation Apple TV 4K.

I have written about technology for my entire professional life - over 25 years. I enjoy learning about how complicated technology works and explaining it in a way anyone can understand.
