I'd love it if iPhone SE 2016 still got updates. I don't care about the speed, just want Voice/SMS/Music run banking and other low consumption apps.

It's still my dedicated MP3 player.

It does. But not beyond iOS 15. Most recent update: 15.8.2 a couple of months ago. Personally I'm really impressed that Apple is still supporting an 8-year-old phone and it's probably the main thing that has been tempting me to jump ship from Android for a while. (Though it seems like Android might be better on this in future.)

It's still my dedicated phone.

Works quite well mostly still.

Why not yours if you don't have very high expectations?
