I was looking at that, the iPhone 8 (supported) has a 6-core CPU, 4 high efficiency cores, but also 2GB of RAM in the plain iPhone 8, 3GB in the Plus. So if it's anything, it'll be in the GPU or the 2 extra cores, that marks the critical differentiator for performance.

But even the iPhone 8 doesn’t support all of the features of iOS 16:

* Live Text

* can’t send emojis in iMessage using Siri

* can’t ask Siri about apps

* offline Siri support for HomeKit, Intercom, Voicemail

* being able to smoothly switch between voice and typing when using dictation

* adding medications using the camera

* Door Detection in Magnifier

* Image search in more apps
