Apple’s iPhone 6s Now Classified as a Vintage Product

iPhone 6s Becomes a Vintage ProductThe iPhone 6s, launched in 2015, remained a consumer favorite until Apple discontinued its sale in 2018. Recently, Apple has added this iconic model to its vintage product list, succeeding the iPhone 6s Plus. This status marks a device that has not been manufactured for more than five years but less than seven years.Innovative Features and LegacyAs the first Apple smartphone to introduce 3D Touch, the iPhone 6s set a new standard for user interaction. Notably, it was the last flagship iPhone to offer a traditional headphone jack, a feature removed in the subsequent iPhone 7 model. In response to the ‘bendgate’ controversy from the previous generation, Apple reinforced the iPhone 6s with a more robust aluminum frame, enhancing its durability.Sales MilestonesThe iPhone 6s emerged as a global bestseller. Prior to the iPhone 7 release, it achieved remarkable sales figures, with 14.2 million units sold, capturing 4% of the worldwide smartphone market in the second quarter of 2016.Current Vintage iPhone ModelsThe list of vintage iPhone models now includes:iPhone 4iPhone 5iPhone 6siPhone 6s PlusiPhone SE (1st generation)iPhone 8 RediPhone 8 Plus RediPhone XiPhone XS Max
