Apple to support latest iOS on iPhone 11, opening era of 7-year smartphone use

Apple will include the 2019 iPhone 11 in devices eligible for its latest iOS, drawing renewed attention to iPhone replacement cycles. Software support is seen as a key measure of usable life because operating system updates add features and provide security patches. The move suggests Apple is maintaining about seven years of support. It also raises expectations that newer models could receive updates through 2031, while possible price increases could influence upgrade timing.
