It covers everything.

6 Obsolete

6+ Obsolete

6s Mixed

6s+ Mixed

7 Supported

7+ Supported

Thank you Bob for your reply, that link is very helpful. I found out you can also download it on the App Store for iOS. I believe 6s is supported, except 32 GB model, obsolete and 6s Plus is vintage, except 32 GB model, obsolete.

"Mixed" means the shop may or may not offer repairs due to parts availability in a given region. It's going to be difficult to come up with a "one size fits all" answer for each iPhone.

As I noted above, the Mac version is easier to navigate than the iOS version, unless you are using a larger iPad

Great information, I will note those types of models as Mixed then on my User Tip. Expect it shortly!

I have one more question for you Bob, since I know you are much more knowledgeable than me in the iPhone community. I don’t want to spoil too much about my user tip, but the order of all the iPhone’s cellular from the first is 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, LTE Advanced Cellular, Gigabit-class LTE, 5G? Or something along the lines of that, please correct me if I’m wrong.

Good old Wikipedia is probably your best bet as a reference, but the question will be how complex and detailed you want things to be.

I would keep things simple and concentrate on the most popular and well known stuff.

It’s a complete list of iPhones and key specifications user tip. I thought I would include connectivity such as WiFi and cellular. But what are your thoughts?
