How long will the iPhone 4 be supported?
I was thinking of buying a iPhone 4, but how long will it be before Apple stop supporting it (updates and that) ?
Tough to say. They've actually supported it for longer than I thought they would.
They are still supporting the iPhone 3GS. I'd say that the iPhone 4 should last through the next iOS update… So probably a year and a half at least.
Well I have iPhone 3G, it is the only iPhone currently not supported. Although I can still download some games onto it and it still works great:')
Probably for another year at least.
Usually iPhones are supported through 2 full iOS versions, example the iPhone 2G (1st iPhone) was supported from iOS 1.0 to 3.1.3 (3rd major version).
So since the iPhone 4 started on iOS 4.0 it should last through the last version of iOS 6 (which could be the current iOS 6.1.3) but because the hardware in the 4 is better than the 2G I think it could last through iOS 7's last version which would be about this time in 2014.
@Rainbow: No, the iPhone 2G is also no longer supported. The remaining other iPhones, 3GS, 4, 4S & 5 are still.
Do you mean ios updates? I guess it would still be awhile, maybe 2 years or even more. But if it is about the hardware, I think it will be awhile, longer than the ios support.
- Why is iphone saying charging not supported with this accessory? It worked fine last night. Same wire. It only happens when I connect it to the computer which I did last night.
- Why does my iphone shows that charging is not supported with this accessory? I think I had my phone plugged in to my laptop for more than 2 hours and it hasn't charged fully. It's like 32 percent charged since I plugge it in. And now it says the above question. I don't know why?
- My iPhone say charging is not supported with this accessory, why? I bought this iphone 4 of ebay and it came with a cable. I had it for 3 weeks and now it has started doing this yellow triangle when i'm charging it. It takes forever to charge and its really annoying! On top of this i have to hold it in a specific way to even get any connection when charging any help will be greatly appreciated! 10 points!
- My Iphone reads Charging is not supported with this accessory. Why? IPhone 4: This has been going on when I put in the original charger (the charger and head that came with the phone), also. I tried changing chargers and switching charger heads but every once in a while, the mesage will still pop up.
