What you see here, and what you do not
The status is derived from the patch history: did this device get the most recent round that covered its product line, yes or no.
Since this device was last updated, 1 security updates were published for newer devices in the same line.
Being skipped is not the same as being dropped. Our data contains devices that missed up to 21 rounds and still received another security update afterwards — Apple serves older devices on a separate, slower branch. So we do not claim support has ended here.
We do not know an end-of-support date for this device. Apple does not publish one. Once the EU product database EPREL provides it, an expected end date will appear here — right now that would be a guess.
