iPhone 16 Launch and Discontinuation of Previous Models by Apple
iPhone 16 Launch Details
Apple is poised to host its highly awaited event on September 9 at Apple Park, Cupertino, to unveil the iPhone 16 series. The lineup includes iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16 Pro Max, and other exciting products. However, this event also signals Apple's plan to discontinue existing devices as newer models roll out, a trend they have historically followed.
Devices Likely to be Discontinued
- iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max: Sources suggest that these will be discontinued post-launch, encouraging upgrades to access the latest Apple features.
- iPhone 14 Plus: Following the trend of phasing out Plus models, the iPhone 14 Plus may be replaced with a new model in the next series.
- iPhone 13: With its introduction in 2021, it’s speculated that discontinuation of the iPhone 13 is on the horizon.
- AirPods 2 and AirPods 3: Apple is expected to unveil AirPods 4, leading to the likely discontinuation of the previous generations.
If you're considering an older iPhone or AirPods, it’s wise to wait until the September event for updates on Apple’s offerings.
