With iOS 14 due this fall, iPhone 7 and newer will be supported. The 5 has long ago reached its end of life. So you can scratch that. Another factor to consider (I tale it the headphone idea is dead?) is the quality of newer iPhones having better speakers. Again, if you can't get your mitts

I don't suppose you will find a headset that can be tailored to meet your needs. In other words, one that can be set up as a sort of filter to 'change' certain frequencies. As to whether any of the voices have been 'upgraded', who knows. Find a carrier or seller who will give you a 30 da
