The iPhone 6 also joined the list of obsolete Apple products today. The company has already announced its bigger "brother" iPhone 6 Plus “obsolete” in April, but the smaller iPhone 6 remained available through resellers in some countries longer, making it “obsolete” only now.

Apple considers a device to be “vintage” if it has been five years since the company stopped selling it. Apple Stores and Apple Authorized Service Providers will continue to service the "vintage" products within the next two years, subject to the availability of spare parts.

«Apple products are designed for a long service life. They are made of durable materials that have been thoroughly tested in our Reliability Testing Laboratory. The longer you use your product, the better it is for the planet», — the company declares on its official website.
