The Apple iPhone 5c can soon become obsolete. The Cupertino-based company informed authorized Apple dealers in a message that the iPhone 5c would be added to the list of out-of-date products on November 1 according to a report from MacRumors.
In October 2020, the smartphone was added to the list of Vintage goods for the uninitiated. Since then, the device’s service and repair choices have been limited. Due to the iPhone 5c’s age, Apple will discontinue all service plans for it.
In 2013, Apple released the iPhone 5C. The iPhone used to be affordable and had a plastic back. There were five colors for the phone: blue, green, pink, white, and yellow. Another Apple gadget listed in the report that will be added to the list of outdated technology is the fourth-generation iPad Mini. According to the source, Apple internally labeled it obsolete in November 2021. But nobody knew about it before till now.
Apple no longer sells products that are more than seven years old. Apple products that are no longer produced are still eligible for hardware support even though they are out of date.
The US smartphone maker typically separates its discontinued products into “Vintage” and “Obsolete” categories. A product was considered vintage when Apple stopped selling it more than five but less than seven years ago.
