With the supply cut, devices will no longer be able to be serviced at Apple-authorized stores. That is, the owners will have to deal with any problems on their own.
Apple has a policy of keeping devices eligible for repairs for up to seven years after they are out of production. With that, 2023 was already pointed out as the farewell year of the two discontinued devices in 2016.
The Thunderbolt monitor has yet to gain any successors after its discontinuation in 2016. The iPad Air gets a new version every year. Even the iPad Air 6 may be on the way, according to rumors.
