Want to know if your iPhone will support the soon-to-be-released iOS 26? We've got the full list of compatible iPhones and other important details about the new OS version.

Apple has announced that iOS 26 will be coming to certain iPhones later this year. The new OS version will hopefully bring new features and improvements to the table. Although a specific release date has not been announced yet, Apple has now confirmed which iPhones will be compatible with iOS 26.

The great news is that the list is quite extensive and includes some models dating back to 2017. So, if you've got an iPhone XR, XS, XS Max, X, 8, 7, 6s, 6, SE (2nd gen), or SE (1st gen) then you'll be able to update to iOS 26.

It's possible that this will be the last major iOS release for some of these models, so if you've got an older iPhone and don't want to upgrade just yet, this news is particularly important for you.

Of course, newer models, including the latest iPhone 14 series will also be compatible with iOS 26. If you've got an iPad, you're in luck too, as iOS 26 will also be rolling out for many iPadOS models, but this list is too long to add here.

As always, it's important to prepare your device before updating to a new OS version to avoid any unwanted issues. Make sure you've got a recent backup of your device and that you're downloading the update through a stable connection.

While we wait for iOS 26's release, investors and fans are already looking forward to iOS 27, which Apple is said to be planning a huge revamp for. Let's just hope it won't be long before we see it.

Until then, if you want to enjoy the latest tech from Apple, be sure to check out the new Apple Watch Series 8, which boasts a robust new temperature sensor, or the new iPhone 14 series which comes with impressive new safety features.
