Apple has added two new entries to its vintage products list.
Website 9to5Mac reported that the iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone 8 (64GB and 256GB) has become the latest entries in the 'iPhone products vintage worldwide' list.
Previous entries include iPhone 4 (8GB), iPhone 5 and iPhone X.
According to Apple on its support page, products are considered vintage when the company stopped distributing them for sale more than five and less than seven years ago.
Once the company has stopped distributing a product for sale for more than seven years, it will be classified as obsolete by Apple. All hardware services will be discontinued and service providers can no longer order parts for obsolete products.
Apple device owners may obtain service and parts from service providers for a minimum of five years from when the company last distributed the product for sale.
The iPhone 7 Plus was first released in Malaysia back in 2016, priced from RM3,799. The company touted the model as the first iPhone to feature an additional 12-megapixel telephoto lens as part of its dual rear camera setup.
Apple released the iPhone 8 in 2017, priced from RM3,649 where wireless charging was introduced for the first time for the iPhone. The company also claimed the device as the first smartphone designed for augmented reality.
