Apple Declares iPhone X and First Generation AirPods Vintage

Jul 8 2024

The unique iPhone X, released for Apple’s special anniversary and the first iPhone model to use an OLED screen with a Super Retina HD display, as well as the trendy must-have wireless headphones, the first-generation AirPods, no longer seem to be considered groundbreaking and trendy tech pieces. Apple now deems them as vintage. Considering their release in September and December of 2016, respectively, this classification seems quite controversial.

With the rapid release of new Apple products and their high retail prices, along with the rising cost of living affecting many people globally, it is no surprise that not everyone can always hold the latest iPhone or AirPods released each September. Therefore, Apple deeming these products as vintage seems questionable to many users. One person commented, “If iPhone X is vintage, then what is my iPhone 7 Plus? Ancient??😭”, while another added, “I still have an iPhone 6, bro. When are you sending me to the nursing home?”

The iPhone X, being a model for iPhones released after 2016, has its admirers who disagree with Apple’s decision to call it vintage. The iPhone X was also considered the ‘most loved’ iPhone model ever made, thanks to its departure from the usual trend of previous iPhone models. Apple’s view on the now-ancient iPhone is materialized as the new iOS 18 will not be available for the model.
