The iOS 15.4 update will bring the feature to iPhone 12 and later models available in the market, So, even though more devices are eligible for iOS 15.4 update, not all of them will get the full benefits of the version.
Apple has talked about limiting the feature to select models on iOS 15.4 because the camera needs to recognise the eye region for authentication for which it needs the TrueDepth camera system that made its debut with the iPhone 12 series in 2020.
Apple has developed a new algorithm for the Face ID to recognise your face with a mask. And if the tech is unable to give access based on your Face ID, you need to put the 6-digit passcode to bypass.
