Overview
- Apple ended the third-generation iPhone SE in February after the iPhone 16e launch, closing out the last Home button model.
- Seven iPhones left the lineup in 2025: iPhone 16 Pro/Pro Max, iPhone 15/15 Plus, iPhone 14/14 Plus, and iPhone SE.
- The larger Plus tier receded as Apple favored the ultra-thin iPhone Air, with the iPhone 14 Plus and iPhone 15 Plus discontinued.
- Chip refreshes drove tablet and Mac retirements, including iPad Pro (M4), iPad Air (M2), iPad 10, Mac Studio with M2 Max/Ultra, 14-inch MacBook Pro (M4), and 13- and 15-inch MacBook Air models with M3 plus the remaining M2 13-inch.
- Accessories and wearables were also pruned, with AirPods Pro 2 replaced by Pro 3, the original Vision Pro (M2) superseded by a newer version, chargers and legacy cables updated in some markets, and Apple Watch Ultra 2, Series 10 and SE 2 retired as the latest watches added no new chips.
