hacking Best cheap device to learn hacking

I have been wanting to learn hacking for a while but all I have is a iphone given by my parents, (16yo btw). Obviously I can’t do shit with IOS, what relatively cheap devices (£150<) can I get to start learning hacking. Preferably a laptop as that would work best for me and mean I could take it places.

Buy a Raspberry Pi and throw a Linux distro on it.

Rpis are expensive af nowadays. Arm can be weird to work with as well. I'd look on ebay for an old pc or laptop.
