And most September 2023+ phones are unable to use Apple Intelligence.

Great work, Apple.

I’m not surprised after seeing the Keynote. Aside from the Apple Intelligence powered features, which remain exclusive to iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 18 feels like a refinement and customization-driven update of iOS 17. I mean, I’m not saying it’s a bad update, but it feels like iOS 17 with this customization features and the new Photos app, so I understand the supported devices are the same as iOS17.

Same with the MacOS update, it seems very minor this year. Although that hasn't stopped Apple from changing system requirements in the past.
