Hi, Thanks so much for the useful and quick reply.

I don't quite understand XR/XS? Would I need a very recent model... 12, 13, 14 etc? Sorry for being a bit lacking in the tech area. I'm thinking of getting a reconditioned iPhone and I want to get the right one. Is there one you recommend? I can't afford the latest one.

You'll need an iPhone model that can run iOS 18, so that means an iPhone XR/XS or up. And you'll need the AirPods Pro second generation for the new hearing aid function to work.
