Included in that is a smarter Siri AI chatbot coming, which is expected to operate similarly to ChatGPT \u2014 meaning it&#8217;ll be better at holding conversations rather than just following commands. However, you may be wondering if the new update will work with your iPhone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">Only three iPhones were removed from the eligibility list last year, which included the iPhone XR, XS and XS Max. We&#8217;ll help you find out if your current iPhone is compatible with iOS 27.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\" data-jump-link-target=\"\" id=\"iphones-compatible-with-ios-27\">iPhones compatible with iOS 27<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">We have good news! Apple isn&#8217;t removing the iPhone 11 from its eligibility list this year. So if you have an iPhone 11 or newer, you&#8217;re in the safe zone. And of course, the newest iPhone lineup \u2014 the rumored foldable Ultra, 18 and Pro 18 models \u2014 will come equipped with iOS 27 already installed.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<ul class=\"col-body mb-4\">\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/>\n<li class=\"ml-4 list-disc\"\/><\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\" data-jump-link-target=\"\" id=\"what-happens-if-i-dont-have-an-eligible-iphone\">What happens if I don&#8217;t have an eligible iPhone?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">If you want to continue using your older iPhone that isn&#8217;t supported by iOS 27, that&#8217;s fine for now. However, you&#8217;ll miss out on security updates which could potentially put your phone at risk for malware and other threats. Additionally, some apps may stop working if they require a certain version of iOS or later. And of course, you won&#8217;t have access to the new, smarter Siri.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading-mb col-body heading-text-style font-bold charcoal-color\" data-jump-link-target=\"\" id=\"when-will-ios-27-become-available\">When will iOS 27 become available?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">Apple usually rolls out its latest iOS in mid-September. Last year, it released iOS 26 on Monday, Sept. 15. The giant tech company should make the announcement during its iPhone event later this year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">This is a developing story, check back for updates.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\"><strong>WWDC 2026: <\/strong>WWDC 2026 live updates | WWDC 2026: All-new Siri AI, iOS 27 and everything else Apple announced today | Siri AI updates announced at WWDC | iOS 27: Everything announced so far | Apple announces macOS Golden Gate at WWDC | What to expect at WWDC | How to watch WWDC |<strong> <\/strong>iOS 27 preview | WWDC 2026: Complete coverage<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tech.yahoo.com\/phones\/breaking-news\/article\/ios-27-update-here-are-all-the-iphones-that-can--and-cant--upgrade-to-the-latest-apple-ios-175941989.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>iOS 27 update: Here are all the iPhones that can \u2014 and can&#8217;t \u2014 upgrade&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":267580,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/lo\/mysterio\/api\/c84fa132e3eee53480919510d77613f457705ed16a81e8883e97d76011a5ee93\/lightyear_networkapi\/resizefill_w1200;quality_80;format_webp\/https:%2F%2Fd29szjachogqwa.cloudfront.net%2Fimages%2Fuser-uploaded%2Fwwdc-2026-june-8-apple-37-16-screenshot_4001.png","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[69,77,32,57,61],"class_list":["post-267579","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone","tag-ios","tag-ios-26","tag-malware","tag-security","tag-security-updates"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267579"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=267579"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267579\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":267581,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/267579\/revisions\/267581"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/267580"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=267579"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=267579"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=267579"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
