“The release of iOS 12 will be helpful to users of older iPhones and iPads, as Apple claims there to be performance improvements with these devices in mind, as well as newer hardware.”
Yes, except that my wife’s iPhone 5 can’t handle anything higher than iOS 10. So much for “older devices”.
I'm not certain why you were expecting iOS 12 to run on the iPhone 5?

For the reason I said: It's an "older iPhone" as the article states.

The iPhone 4s all the way back to the original iPhone are also "older" iPhones. Do you think their statement also means that iOS 12 will work on those devices?

The use of the word “older” isn’t my choice. I would have used “recent”.

I guess, more specifically, if iOS 11 didn't run on the iPhone 5, why did you think that it would run iOS 12?
I'm still comfortable with older, as the iPhone 5s is in no way "recent" -- but thanks for the suggestion anyhow.

But we're specifically talking about devices that are capable of running iOS 12. The iPhone 5s is not only older than the iPhone X, but it's the oldest iPhone capable of running iOS 12. I can't even wrap my head around how you could possibly debate these simple facts.
