The quickest and easiest way to determine which iPhone you have is to go to the Settings app:

- Tap General > About.
How to know which iPhone you have (if not in Settings)
Unfortunately, if you're using an iPhone that doesn't have iOS 10.3 or later, the model name won't appear in the Settings app. To see which model you have:
- Look on the back of your phone to find the model number on the bottom.
- Make sure the model number matches the list below.
If your iPhone model number is not engraved on the back, it means you have at least an iPhone 8 or newer. In that case, you need to update your iOS to find out your model name. Then you can look it up in the Settings app.
