Explanation

iPhone X was the first iPhone to feature Apple's TrueDepth camera system, which uses facial mapping technology to animate Memoji in real time - making it the only option here that supports the feature. Memoji (introduced in iOS 12) requires this front-facing depth sensor to track 50+ facial muscle movements, a hardware capability tied specifically to Face ID devices.

iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 both use Touch ID (a fingerprint sensor) rather than Face ID, so they lack the TrueDepth camera entirely and cannot run animated Memoji. iPhone 6s is older still and similarly relies on Touch ID, placing it even further outside Memoji compatibility.

Memory tip: Link "Memoji" to "me + Face ID" - if the iPhone uses Face ID, it can map your face into a Memoji. iPhone X was the first Face ID phone, so it's the earliest model on this list that qualifies.
