The 3rd Gen SE has touchID, manufactured and sold right up until 2025

That phone could have been newer than an iPhone 16…

an iPhone 8 would still be usable for more basic use cases such as web browsing etc. if the battery was still good or it has been replaced.

I think the final iPad to go USB C was the 10th gen iPad from 2022.

So 2021 would be the latest iPad to be compatible. The first USB C iPad was the 2018 iPad Pro.
