New Apple Watches no longer connecting with iPhoneX or older? (alien.top)

My partner and I got a new Apple Watch SE for my partner’s sister and turns out it won’t connect because her phone isn’t updated to the latest iOS system?

She has the iPhoneX which only has up to ios 16 available and we cannot get this watch to connect. My Apple Watch SE connects to her phone but it is at watchOS 9.3.1. Any help or support for this would be appreciated!

That’s a 6 year old phone. Not gonna connect to the new watches. There’s great 2nd hand websites (that check everything like IMEI and loan status as well as Apple account locks) that you could easily get a 12 for $230 USD
