iPhone 16 Pro From 16P to 16PM?

[iphonefreak450]

Should I make the jump from my current 16P to 16PM? Maybe I will after they release the 17 models and the price would hopefully drop a bit for the 16PM.

But my question is, how long will Apple be supporting the 16PM for?
That's my only concern.

Think I will be skipping the 17 model.

iPhone X from 2017 was released with iOS 11 but can only upgrade to iOS 16
iPhone XS from 2018 was released with iOS 12 but can only upgrade to iOS 18
iPhone 11 Pro from 2019 was released with iOS 13 and it's possible that iOS 26 (19) could be the last upgrade.
iPhone 16 Pro from 2024 was released with iOS 18 so the possible last upgrade would be iOS 31 (24)

Apple publicly commits to at least five years of iOS updates from launch date, though it frequently goes a year or two longer, followed by two years of security updates.
