Apple has decided to permanently discontinue production of some older iPhone models. This decision is part of the company's standard operating procedures and simply reflects the passage of time and the difficulty of maintaining these older components. Specifically, the company has added all iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 models to its "obsolete" product list, meaning they will no longer receive official support. Apple follows a fairly clear policy regarding its devices. When a device ceases production after five to seven years, it is considered "obsolete." In this case, authorized service centers and repair providers can repair it, provided replacement parts are available. After seven years since production ended, it is classified as "abandoned." Since then, Apple has ceased offering any official repair services, and new parts cannot be ordered. This means that if the device malfunctions, it cannot be repaired through official channels. Last December, Apple added a once-popular model to its list of discontinued devices: the first-generation iPhone SE, or in other words, the company's first budget-friendly phone. The first-generation iPhone SE arrived in 2016, causing quite a stir among users, as it was a compact and powerful phone at a very competitive price at the time. Apple discontinued it in 2018, and for several years there were no "cheap" iPhones on the market. This is what happened with the aforementioned models. The iPhone 4's last release was in 2011, 14 years ago, while the iPhone 5's situation is even more pronounced. This device introduced changes such as the Lightning port, along with a thinner and lighter design, a larger screen, and improved performance
