Apple doesn't publish an end date, but iPhones have a consistent ~2-year update track record — on that basis the Hot 40 Pro should be supported until around December 2025. Buying it today still gets you about -0.5 years of safe use (Apple's written legal minimum is 5 years).

Our verdict

A budget phone built around a 108MP camera and a 120Hz LCD, prioritizing the spec sheet over an AMOLED panel.

Pros

Cons

  • 33W charging is on the slow side
  • Only one genuinely useful rear camera
