this is True, but What about Apple's iPhone6 &
iPhone6+, which Debuted in September2014, it
ONLY received 4Years of iOS updates: 2015, 2016, 2017, & 2018
the iPhone5S wasn't a GOOD Example of How Long
Apple supports its Previous Models of the iPhone

I think the iPhone 8 will get at least 2 and
probably 3 more updates. It came out in 2017
with iOS 11, last year it got iOS 12 and this year it is iOS 13.
I think it will get iOS 14 next year and iOS 15
in 2020 and most likely it will get iOS 16 in 2021.
Think of the iPhone 5S, it came out in 2013 with
iOS 7, in 2014 it got iOS 8, in 2015 it was iOS
9, iOS 10 in 2016, iOS 11 in 2017 and iOS 12
last year. It won’t get iOS 13 any more, but
that is a total of 6 versions including the one
it shipped with and 5 upgrades. The iPhone 8
shipped with iOS 11 which means it only had 2
upgrades now so if it also gets 5 upgrades it
would be 3 more all the way to iOS 16 in 2022
and only in the fall of 2023 it would not get
iOS 17. Of course it could be one less which
means it would not get iOS 16 in 2022 any more,
but that still means 3 years of life with full
support (of course less any features which are
only supported by newer hardware such as 5G support in a few years.)
I guess the iPhone 6 did get one upgrade less
since it came out a year after the 5S and iOS 12
was also it’s last version, but one also needs
to factor in that as the hardware and the OS
mature, upgrades may not offer such drastic new
features. Combine this with the desire of many
users and companies to produce less garbage and
use devices longer and it is not impossible that
what are essentially relatively new devices now
could be supported for an extra year..

Sieghard.

Oh and the 8 will get one or two more IOS
updates whereas the 11 will get five or six.

Remember this is one opinion.
the 11 pro has longer battery life, faster
processor, better camera abilities (which may or
may not benefit us) and the possibility of using
the coming Apple tags. There may be a few other
improvements so if you want the new phone and
can afford it, I say, “Go for it!â€

Fazil, I thought you have an iPhone 8? If you do
it is in my opinion a waste of money to upgrade
to the iPhone 11. Yes, you get Face Id and a
faster processor, maybe better battery as well,
but apart from this there isn’t anything the
iPhone 11 has over my iPhone 8 which I want.

Subject: iPhone11, 11-Pro & 11ProMax From Blindness Perpective?
Hi, list.
I got a question about iPhone11-Pro & 11-ProMax.
If I get iPhone11 being a totally blind person,
would I be missing anything from 11-Pro or ProMax?
My understanding is that the only difference is
better cameras and video in 11-Pro & ProMax
which I am not worried about, why should I pay
for something that I don’t use?
Is there anything that I am missing in 11-Pro or ProMax?
Thanks!
