Here are all the iPhones, iPads and iPods that will get iOS 11... and those that won't

Apple kicked off its Worldwide Developer Conference at which it teased a new iMac Pro, and unveiled refreshed iMacs and MacBooks, a 10.5-inch iPad Pro, and a new HomePod smart speaker powered by Siri. It also announced watchOS 4; the next macOS version, known as High Sierra; and a major new update to its mobile operating system, iOS 11.

Apple has already released its first Developer Preview of iOS 11, with a wider beta release expected later this month. The update will roll out to all supported devices this autumn - but not all devices that received iOS 10 will be eligible for that update.

Here's the full list of devices that will be able to upgrade to iOS 11:

iPhone

  • iPhone 7
  • iPhone 7 Plus
  • iPhone 6s

  • iPad Air
  • iPad 5th generation

Now, here are the devices that are currently supported on iOS 10, but which won't get iOS 11:

  • iPhone 5

Notably, those three devices have 32-bit processors; there have been hints for several months that Apple has been planning to drop 32-bit support, focusing on a 64-bit future.
