What about people using iPhone 7 and older?

If you are a proud owner of the iPhone 7 or an older version, you will miss out on the updates, but your phone will work just fine. Although in time, you might notice your favorite apps demanding you to upgrade to iOS 16 and also be at increased risk of facing a security breach.

So if you want to be able to use your phone at its total capacity and avoid security issues, you might want to check on a newer version of an Apple phone.
