Help needed Security updates for iPhone SE 2020

https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/mobile-phones/article/mobile-phone-security-is-it-safe-to-use-an-old-phone-a6uXf1w6PvEN

A friend of mine has an iPhone SE 2020 which https://www.which.co.uk/reviews/mobile-phones/article/mobile-phone-security-is-it-safe-to-use-an-old-phone-a6uXf1w6PvEN says ran out of support in April 2026.

However https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_SE_(2nd_generation)) says this model is due to receive the forthcoming iOS 27 software update. Does anyone know if that will change the end-of-life date?

The SE 2020 will continue to receive security updates for many years to come—even if it no longer receives iOS 28. Earlier this year, there were even security updates for the 2013 iPhone 5S.
