Oldest Compatible iPhone

I’m signing up for a multi line shared data plan and when I went to activate some old iPhones only one worked, a 1st gen iPhone SE. I had some older iPhone 4/5 that don’t have sim trays on the side and there wasn’t an imei number in settings like there was with the 1st gen iPhone SE. The 4/5 only showed a meid number. 

Anyhow, can anyone tell me the oldest iPhone that is still compatible with Xfinity mobiles shared data plan? I would greatly appreciate the help. I tried calling and online chatting with customer service but they couldn’t tell me the answer to this and directed me to a physical Xfinity store but I don’t have time to drive nearly an hour each way to ask a question that I’d imagine would only take a minute to answer.

The oldest iPhones that might be compatible would be the 6s and the SE, and both of these will be considered obsolete by the end of this year. Also, carriers are already only activating phones with LTE, as 3G is being dropped next year.
