If you look at Apple's portfolio, it's a certainty that we'll see new iPhones and Apple Watches every year, as well as a range of iPads. However, it is no longer so obvious with other products. Moreover, with the arrival of a new generation, it does not mean that the older ones will stop being sold. It has the advantage of a lower price, and the disadvantage is that, in theory, Apple will end support for such products a little earlier, even if you bought them relatively recently. 

Apple TV HD - October 30, 2015 

Undoubtedly, the oldest product in the company's entire portfolio is the Apple TV HD, which it has been selling since 2015. It is therefore true that this year it received an upgrade, when you can already find a new remote control in the package, which is also common to the new Apple TV 4K, to the smart- but the box did not touch. The problem here is not so much the age and the hardware, because it can be enough for the Apple TV application, as well as for presentations within the school or company. The big downside is the price, which is set at a really high 4190 CZK. This year's novelty costs CZK 4.

Apple Watch Series 3 - September 22, 2017 

Keeping the Apple Watch Series 3 in the company's portfolio has left many scratching their heads. This generation was introduced back in 2017 and still complements Apple's range of smartwatches alongside the Series 7 and SE. The price of the watch starts at 5 CZK for a 490 mm case size, the larger 38 mm watch costs 42 CZK. The problem here is not so much the lack of new functions that undemanding users will not appreciate, but rather the size of the internal storage, which slowly cannot even update the system itself.

iPod touch - May 28, 2019 

It may not seem like it, but the latest member of the iPod family is actually only 2 and a half years old. But few people know that Apple actually still sells the iPod touch series. You won't find the current 7th generation iPod touch in any of the store's main offers, and if you're interested in it, you really have to look hard (specifically at the very bottom of the main page in the Shop and Explore menu). The price of the 32GB version is CZK 5.

iPhone 11 - September 10, 2019 

With the arrival of the iPhone 13 line of phones, Apple has removed the iPhone XR from its lineup, and currently the oldest iPhone you can buy in the company's online store is the iPhone 11 from 2019. And it is certain that when the iPhone 14 arrives, the elevens will clear the field At the same time, the iPhone 12. 64GB version currently costs a hefty 14 CZK.

Mac Pro - December 10, 2019 

The oldest computer in the company's portfolio is the desktop Mac Pro. Although we already have certain indications that a successor is being prepared, the question is when we will actually see it. Apple is currently halfway through its two-year transition period from Intel processors to its Apple Silicon, with the Mac Pro of course fitted with a chip from the former company. But the time of sale is one thing, the support itself is another. However, it is hard to believe that if you were to buy a Mac Pro at the basic price of CZK 164 this year, Apple will maintain support for it, i.e. system updates, for more than the next five years. Therefore, it is necessary to really think carefully about the investment.
