Apple just made these 5 devices obsolete—here's what that means
Apple has added five older products to its "obsolete" list: iPhone SE (1st gen), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2nd gen), Apple Watch Series 4 Hermes and Nike editions, and Beats Pill 2.0.
This means no more official repairs or parts from Apple for these devices.
So, what happens if you own 1?
Once a device is labeled obsolete, neither Apple nor its authorized shops can fix it or order parts—even if you really need them.
If you want to keep using your gadget, you'll need to find a third-party repair shop or consider upgrading.
Why does this matter?
Many people still use these devices, but now they're out of luck for official support and may eventually lose security updates.
While the gadgets will keep working for now, their aging hardware could make them less reliable—and might nudge users toward newer models if they want peace of mind.
