If anyone else is bothered by a phone that is still sold being dropped from support, send your feedback to Apple now. If you wait until confirmation we will likely be to far along in the development cycle for any change.

My iPhone SE is not even 12 months old. If I don’t even get one update I’ll be seeking a full refund from Apple under our consumer protection law. It’s always been the expectation that Apple supports its products for years. If this report is true I’m not impressed at all.
