Apple has discontinued support for iPhones X, 8, and 8 Plus in iOS 17, ending the hopes of many users who wanted to keep their 2017 models updated for another year. While iOS 16 dropped all devices older than the iPhone 7 and the first-gen iPhone SE, this is the latest crop of older iPhone devices to get the boot. Similarly, iPadOS 17 will no longer support the first-gen iPad Pro and fifth-gen iPad from its support list.
