About this model archive
This section brings together earlier Apple iPhone coverage published on Fingerprintresistant. Older articles can be useful for identifying a device, finding background information or understanding a previous generation.
Prices, availability, software support and descriptions such as “new” belong to the period in which an article was written. Check the manufacturer’s current support information before buying or relying on an older device.
For a current purchase, begin with the November 2026 buying guide above. Use the model cards to open earlier coverage without mixing it into the current recommendation.
