iPadOS 18 drops support for the 2nd generation iPad Pro (2017, 12.9 and 10.5 inch) and the 6th generation iPad (2018), which include A10X and A10 chips, respectively. However, iPadOS 18 continues to support the 7th generation iPad, which also includes an A10 chip. This operating system drops support for all iPads that used the original 9.7-inch display size. This also marks the fourth time Apple has dropped support for 64-bit iPads and the first time Apple has dropped support for an iPad (iPad Pro 2nd Generation) featuring superior hardware to some models (iPad 7th Generation) receiving the update.
