The iPhone 5 was officially discontinued by
Apple on September 10, 2013 with the announcement of its successors, the iPhone 5S and the iPhone 5C. The iPhone 5 has the second-shortest lifespan of
any iPhone ever produced with only twelve months in production, breaking with
Apple's standard practice of selling an existing iPhone model at a reduced
price upon the release of a new model. This was broken by the iPhone X which only had ten-months in production from November
2017 to September 2018.It was replaced as a midrange and then an entry-level
device by the iPhone 5C; the 5C internal hardware specifications are almost
identical to the 5 albeit having a less expensive polycarbonate exterior. The
iPhone 5 supports iOS 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. The iPhone 5 is the second iPhone to
support five major versions of iOS after the iPhone 4S.
