iOS 16 marks the first time since iOS 13 that Apple dropped support for any device. The following devices with [[Apple A9]] and [[Apple A10|A10 Fusion]] chips had support dropped: the [[iPhone 6S]], [[iPhone 6S Plus]], [[iPhone 7]], [[iPhone 7 Plus]], [[iPhone SE (1st generation)]] and [[IPod Touch (7th generation)|iPod touch (7th generation)]].
