Overview
- Instant Digital, a Weibo leaker, posted Monday what it claims is the iOS 27 compatibility list, excluding iPhone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, and iPhone SE (2nd gen).
- If accurate, the cutoff means iOS 27 installs only on iPhone 12 and newer models, including iPhone SE (3rd gen).
- Reports say Apple Intelligence features in iOS 27 will require an iPhone 15 Pro or newer to run.
- Outlets note Apple will preview iOS 27 at WWDC on June 8, with a developer beta expected that day and a public beta likely in July.
- Dropped devices should keep getting iOS 26 security updates for a period, and coverage frames the move as in line with Apple’s six‑to‑seven‑year support cycle and last year’s XS/XR cutoff, though the leak remains unconfirmed until WWDC.
