"On Monday, Apple will release the iPhone's next operating system, iOS 26, to the general public. The new operating system features the most radical redesign of the iPhone's software in over a decade. Gone are iOS's flat, minimalist interface elements, replaced by a new transparent design language called Liquid Glass. But iOS 26 is offering iPhones more than a facelift."
"With the release of iOS 26, Apple is dropping support for three iPhone models that can currently run iOS 18: the iPhone XS, the iPhone XS Max, and the iPhone XR. All three models were released in 2018, and none will support iOS 26, likely because they don't possess the graphics or processing power to run the new Liquid Glass design adequately."
iOS 26 will arrive Monday, introducing Liquid Glass, a transparent design that replaces iOS's flat, minimalist interface. The update includes more advanced AI tools, a revamped calling experience, an all‑new Games app, and numerous improvements to core apps such as Maps, Photos, and Messages. Compatibility extends to roughly 30 iPhone models but excludes devices released before 2019. Apple drops support for the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR, citing inadequate graphics and processing power for the new design. Device owners should verify compatibility and prepare their phones before installing iOS 26.
