I think the iPhone 6S is actually the oldest phone to which this applies. It was a big step up in processor speed from the 6, and I think it marked the point at which phone cpus hit "fast enough". Hopefully apple continue to support the 6S for at least a couple more years, because I don't think there's any technical reason why they can't.

Notably it has also 2GB of RAM, when the older devices have 1.

One of the kids' phones is an SE which is pretty much the same internals as the 6S and it's still good.
