At its WWDC conference on Monday, Apple took the wraps off iOS 12. If you already own an iPhone ($799.99 at Cricket Wireless) or iPad ($299.99 at Best Buy), especially an older one, you might be wondering whether the device will be able to run the new operating system.
After all, it's not uncommon for iOS updates to require faster processors, which often leaves older devices behind.
