Looking for advice on device to play TSM

Since the Sims Mobile was released when the iPhone 7 was the newest phone (well before the iPhone 8 or X) I would think that it would still run on that -- just make sure you upgrade to latest version of iOS 11 if it's not already upgraded. Not sure about the iPhone Air or Samsung. I have an iPad mini 2 that I hope will run Sims Mobile; I'd prefer the slightly larger screen but not as bulky as the Air (the iPad mini fits great in my purses).

Thanks, the thing is my anniversary is coming up and i cant justify to my hubby getting s new tablet when mine still works fine (iPad Air). We were also talking on upgrading our phones as a joint anniversary gift so, it might be easier on talking him into that instead but we dont have the budget to splurge on the latest gen on phones so that’s why I was thinking on iPhone 7 which at least the screen is a bit bigger than my current phone. This has to be decided by this weekend since we will getting the joint gift this weekend. So that’s why I am looking st all possible recommendations :)
