Even if it’s just iOS devices that’s not too surprising. Lots of people sell their old devices (which get new homes) or pass them down.

We also know the iPad tends to have a much longer lifecycle than the phone. If it wasn’t for the lack of updates and new software many people would still be using the iPad 2 from 2012 (?).

Mom is still rocking her iPad 2. Really the best piece of tech I've ever bought for her. Zero support calls!

2011, amazingly. If it wasn't for lack of updates many corporate users would be too(i had to drag my work away kicking and screaming "but the apps still work!" and i've heard many similar stories)
