The rate of CVEs an android, combined with the sheer number of manufacturers who are slow about updates or just never deliver any, means that unpatched devices are nothing like the rarity that this statement suggests.

I was trying to avoid an iOS vs. Android flamewar but feel free to read that as “buy an iPhone 3GS or later unless you want to carefully check this”.

iPhone 3GS stopped getting patches 5 years ago (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_6). I think it qualifies as really old and unpatched.
