Apple Says iPhone X is Now Obsolete
Apple today added the iPhone X and the 2018 model of the 15-inch MacBook Pro to its obsolete products list , according to an updated support document. Released in November 2017, the iPhone X was the first iPhone with an OLED display and Face ID. The lack of a Touch ID home button resulted in the device having a more edge-to-edge screen with a notch for the front camera and Face ID sensors. The device featured a premium design with a glass back and a stainless steel frame. When an iPhone becomes obsolete, it is no longer eligible for repairs or other hardware service at Apple Stores or Apple Authorized Service Providers. Apple considers a product to be obsolete once seven years have passed since it stopped distributing the product. Apple stopped selling the iPhone X in September 2018 , but the device remained available at select resellers for longer. iOS 16 was the final major software version compatible with the iPhone X.
