No iOS 18 for the iPhone 5s – ever. That phone does not have the hardware needed to run it.


If you want to run iOS 18, buy a compatible phone.

iPhone models compatible with iOS 18 - Apple Support

I believe that only the iPhone 12 series and later support 5G cellular networks, and only the iPhone 15 Pro, 15 Pro Max, and 16 series phones will support Apple Intelligence.


If you are tempted to buy a used phone to "save money", read

so you know what to look for to reduce the chances of getting an Activation Locked (and possibly stolen "brick").
