Apple adds these popular iPhone models to vintage list: What it means for owners
iPhone 7 Plus, once Apple's cutting-edge flagship, has now been added to the company's official list of vintage products as of May 21, 2025. Launched back in 2016, the device introduced features that would go on to define the iPhone experience for years, including a dual rear camera system, a solid-state home button, and the now-iconic Jet Black finish. In Apple's terminology, a product is considered vintage when it hasn't been sold for more than five years but less than seven. After that, it becomes obsolete, at which point Apple and authorised service providers will no longer offer repairs or parts. So while iPhone 7 Plus users can still seek repairs, if parts are available, the writing is clearly on the wall. With the device turning eight years old, spare parts will become harder to find, and service support will be even more limited. Mobile Finder: Apple iPhone 17 Air may steal the show this year One of the most significant concerns with the iPhone 7 Plus is the infamous 'Loop Disease' — a nickname given to audio IC failure, a flaw that would cause the microphone to stop functioning entirely, rendering the phone useless for voice calls and Siri interactions. The issue led to a class-action lawsuit that was settled in January 2024, offering payouts between $49 and $350 to eligible owners. However, those who bought an iPhone 7 or 7 Plus after January 3, 2023, were excluded from the settlement, and are now left with a difficult choice if problems arise: either pursue a third-party repair (at potentially high cost) or retire the device. Alongside the iPhone 7 Plus, Apple also added the 64GB and 256GB variants of the iPhone 8 to its vintage list. The 128GB iPhone 8 is not yet considered vintage, as it remained available for a longer period. Meanwhile, the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 2, both released over a decade ago, have now moved to the obsolete category. Apple will no longer offer service or parts for either model. While many iPhone 7 Plus users have remained loyal due to the phone's solid performance and iconic design, its newly acquired vintage status, and long-standing hardware issues, suggest it might finally be time to consider an upgrade.

‘Brady Bunch' star Susan Olsen's hair fell out after bleaching it blonde every 3 weeks for hit show
Susan Olsen made certain sacrifices when she starred as Cindy Brady for half a decade on 'The Brady Bunch.' Olsen was on The Chocolate Expo's panel with her 'Brady Bunch' co-stars, Christopher Knight, Mike Lookinland and Barry Williams, when she revealed that she had to dye her hair blonde every three weeks to maintain Cindy's look. According to People, a fan asked Olsen if she had to dye her hair to star as Cindy. Olsen was 7 when she took on the role. 'You bet. Every three weeks they had to dye my hair. If you look at the third season, my hair is kind of a different shade of blonde every episode,' Olsen said. Since she was putting her hair through so much, it began to fall out. 'They were trying out different things, but then my hair had started to fall out. With that, I went back to letting my mom do my hair, every Friday night.' Cindy Brady's signature curls didn't come naturally to Olsen either. 'I had to keep it rollers because my hair was straight. It couldn't hold a curl unless I slept in them. But my mother was responsible for those ringlets,' she said. 5 Susan Olsen played Cindy Brady in 'The Brady Bunch' from 1969 to 1974. CBS via Getty Images 5 Susan Olsen attends the 2025 Chocolate Expo at New Jersey Exposition Center in Edison, on March 29, 2025. Getty Images 'In 1970, trying different things meant a whole cocktail of weird chemicals, right?' she asked before Lookinland chimed in. 'All I had was Miss Clairol, Jet Black number 23. I remember the little bottle and it said 'jet black,'' he said. 'I was 'classic blonde,'' Olsen said of her character's hair color. 5 The cast of 'The Brady Bunch' poses for a group picture in September 1973. Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty Images 5 Susan Olsen attends the premier of 'A Very Brady Renovation' at the Garland Hotel in North Hollywood, Calif. on Sept. 5, 2019. Getty Images People reported that Olsen and her fellow co-stars also reflected more generally on their time on the hit show, with Olsen saying 'the love was genuine' between all the co-stars. 'I know for me, and I might be speaking for the others, but they can chime in, that Bob and Florence were in a position for us to want to do this,' Knight said, referring to Robert Reed and Florence Henderson, who played the Brady children's on-screen parents, Mike and Carol. He continued, 'We didn't want to disappoint them. And that's at the center of a good parent relationship: a child that doesn't want to disappoint their parents because of respect. And it was reciprocated, but that is because of the respect we had for them.' 5 Susan Olsen as Cindy Brady in 'The Brady Bunch' episode 'Grand Canyon or Bust' aired on Sept. 24, 1971. CBS via Getty Images 'The Brady Bunch' aired from 1969 to 1974. The show starred Henderson and Reed as Carol and Mike Brady, who shared a blended family of three boys and three girls from previous marriages.
