First of all, you’re implying it runs latest Windows - but Windows 11 shipped a few years ago.
Second - not really a fair comparison. 18 years ago the iPhone didn’t even exist. And the oldest model (17 years old) had really weak hardware. 4GB of storage, 128MB of RAM, and the CPU was an order of magnitude slower than current spec CPUs (it was also 32 bit - and 64 bit ARM is a completely new architecture - similar to the failed Itanium).
Even if it was supported, it would be a horrible experience.
try it yourself, but dont expect it to be good. a lot of hardware sold today, especially very cheap hw on the 3rd world, still has similar performance than 15year old hardware. think atoms celerons and such.
if it were up to me id be running linux on it, but it works if you need it to.
my friend has a 20yr old core 2 duo system with the latest updates on windows 10
Comparing apples to oranges are we?
the difference here is just standardization.
Huh? In what way.
x86 hardware is standardized in a way where you don’t need to port an os to them, it just runs with generic drivers.
arm still needs a custom kernel and conpletely different drivers to even boot, because every manifacturer can implement it completely differently.
there are efforts to fix this (namely project mainline and some work on uefi standards) but they arent done and wont be for a good while.

i specifically said it runs the latest updates on win10.

The core 2 duo was released 18 years ago.
well, about 20 years old then
