iOS 27 Device Compatibility: iPhone 11 Avoids the Chop at WWDC 2026

Apple Extends iOS 27 Support to iPhone 11 and Introduces New Liquid Glass UI Transparency Slider During WWDC 2026 Keynote

A huge hardware surprise during the early stages of the WWDC 2026 Keynote that countered the rumors and speculation of recent months, every single iPhone from the iPhone 11 lineage up to and including the newest hardware will receive full iOS 27 support. That provides one extra software generation of support for Apple's 2019 flagship devices, giving a huge bump to users hanging on to older hardware.
