Here in this article, we have a piece of specific news for those of you who own an Apple iPhone 6 Plus because you are one of them who own a vintage product. The California-based Cupertino giant has added the iPhone 6 Plus, released nearly five years ago, to its vintage list.
This means that the smartphone has run its entire manufacturing cycle. The company released the iPhone 6 Plus side by side iPhone 6. The iPhone 6 Plus was further the first from the Apple lineup to provide greater displays to the market.
According to the iPhone manufacturer, products are added to the vintage classification at the time the company stops dispensing them for sale above five and less than seven years ago. In the same way, the company adds products to the outmoded category at the time it stops delivering them for sale for more than 7 years.
Despite the fact that the iPhone manufacturer discontinues all hardware services for vintage products, the Mac notebooks are excused from it. They are entitled to a supplementary battery-only repair period. However, service providers cannot order parts for obsolete products.
Accordingly, the iPhone 6 Plus currently joins the list of vintage iPhones, such as the iPhone 4, iPhone 4s, iPhone 4s 8GB, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 3G, and many more.
However, the users who still own the iPhone 6 Plus must not worry as the company authorized service providers may keep providing repair services for the iPhone 6 Plus up to seven years post-termination.
