iOS 27 Full List of Supported Devices: Which iPhones Will Support Apple Intelligence

Apple has unveiled iOS 27 at WWDC 2026, highlighting upgrades to Apple Intelligence and a smarter Siri. Behind the scenes, Apple is also refining Liquid Glass and building on work started in iOS 26. The standout change for many users is support: every iPhone that runs iOS 26 is expected to run iOS 27 as well.

This wider compatibility reflects Apple's focus on optimisation rather than broad, non AI feature shifts. Performance improvements and system tweaks take priority, especially for Liquid Glass, instead of dropping older models. Devices that already reached the limit with iOS 25 will stay excluded, but owners of supported phones gain another year of software life.

iOS 27 Supported Devices: Full iPhone Compatibility List

In earlier years, a new iOS release often meant at least one iPhone generation lost support. With iOS 27, Apple is breaking that pattern by keeping the same baseline as iOS 26. Any device capable of running iOS 26, including the iPhone 11 series and newer, is listed for the iOS 27 rollout, while earlier phones remain unsupported.

iOS 27 Supported Devices: Which iPhones get Apple Intelligence and Siri AI

The broader iOS 27 rollout does not mean every compatible iPhone receives the latest Apple Intelligence tools. Since Apple Intelligence first arrived in 2024, Apple has kept a clear divide between basic system updates and AI features. Only models with supported hardware receive the upgraded Siri AI and related intelligence capabilities.

Apple Intelligence Support on macOS 27 and iPadOS 27

Apple is also extending Apple Intelligence beyond iPhones running iOS 27. When the new AI features arrive later this year, several other product categories are on the compatibility list. Devices with Apple's M1 chip or newer form the core, with wearables and mixed reality hardware included for deeper integration across the ecosystem.

What Longer Support Means for Users

For users, especially those holding on to iPhone 11 or iPhone SE models, the extended support matters. Another iOS release without losing compatibility stretches device value, which is relevant in markets like India where phones often stay in use for several years. However, only recent premium models gain the newest Siri AI and Apple Intelligence functions.

iOS 27's mix of performance refinements and AI options also shapes how people upgrade. Owners of compatible but non AI iPhones will still see Liquid Glass and system improvements, yet may miss headline Siri changes. Apple has not detailed regional differences, but the staggered feature approach resembles earlier Apple Intelligence rollouts since 2024.

iOS 27 therefore keeps every iOS 26 ready iPhone in the update cycle while reserving Apple Intelligence and the reworked Siri for newer hardware. Users across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple Vision Pro can expect AI features later this year, as Apple continues refining Liquid Glass and overall performance within its existing device range.
