This doesn't really mean much on account of the iOS ecosystem only supporting the latest two OS versions in their apps as a general rule. Once you are behind 2 versions, your device becomes quite useless at that point

Quite useless?! I still use my iPhone SE (1 gen) from 8 years ago. It’s working perfectly fine for my daily business. Sure, some newer apps I cannot install, but so far I’m not missing anything important. Banking apps work, navigations works, obviously the browser still works, etc

		I have the same phone but to be fair some websites stopped working (GitHub is among them) and some of my banking apps stopped getting updates as well. No huge deal breakers _personally_ as I don’t need banking on my phone anyway (I have an iPad at home, and also checked that the banks offer authentication devices like TAN generators if I really need to get out of the iOS/Android ecosystem). Apple Pay still works fine. I hope that small phone has a long life ahead of it still :)

		Same here. I've noticed that the minimum iOS version for a lot of apps is currently 15 so I'm expecting this to increase to 16 and make my phone redundant, but until then I'll run this phone into the ground!
