iOS 16 Supported Devices. We are going to explain when iOS 16 comes out and which iPhone models will be compatible with the next version of the iPhone operating system. iOS 16 has been presented today along with its main novelties, but it will not be compatible with absolutely all iPhone models, so we will clarify your doubts so that you know what to expect if yours is too old.
Before we start, we are going to tell you that there is still no specific release date for this new version. However, Apple is usually quite predictable in terms of the times it sets for the betas and the releases of the final version of its operating systems, so we can get an idea of when it will arrive.

Now, we are going to leave you a complete list in which you will see which devices that will be compatible with iOS 16. If your iPhone is on the list, this means that it will receive this update. But if you see that it does not appear on the list, it will be because Apple has already considered it too old and with insufficient hardware for the system, so it will no longer be updated.
