When will the iphone 4s be obsolete?
When will the iphone 4s be obsolete?
The day it was released
There's still a while before that happens, the most recent obsolete iPhone is the 3, because it does not have 3G. The 3GS is not obsolete yet, so it still probably has another 2-3 years.
It will be at least three-four years if history is anything to go by.
At least 2 more years. Technology has been advancing at an alarming rate though so not sure how much longer after that. Even if you get updates you won't get all the full features.
When Apple no longer makes it, no longer updates it & when iOS apps require a higher version than it can run.
The 1st & 2nd gen iPhones are in that category
iPhone - not made since 2008, no updates since 3.1.3, apps require iOS 4.3
iPhone 3G - not made since 2009, no updates since 4.2.1, apps require iOS 4.3
- Will iOS5 become obsolete soon? So I'm planning to buy a second hand iPhone 3Gs and I'll probably have it on iOS6 already. But I want to know how long apple will keep supporting iOS5/6 so that this phone doesn't go useless.
- Why is my iPhone 3g obsolete? I have had this phone for quite some time, and I understand they want you to get the iphone 4 or 5 but I don't really have the money or want to spend it on a new one when my old one works as far as calls and texting etc… But no apps work, one by one they are starting to fail, won't load, etc. I had instagram since I got my phone and it stopped working and I'm very annoyed with Apple!
- When will the iPhone 4S become obsolete? I was wondering when the iPhone 4S will become truly obsolete. I can't afford a new model, so considering that it will be supporting the new iOS 8, how long should it take for Apple to stop pushing updates to it and seize production of this model?
- What is the difference between the iPhone 6, the iPhone 6 Plus, the iPhone 6s, and the iPhone 6s plus? I just now found out that the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6s were two different phones so that makes for 2 other new phones I learned about what are the differences? I'm thinking of switching from my Samsung 6 to an iPhone 6.
