Will this feature be available for other iPhone models that have been updated to IOS 16.1? Or is only available for the 14 models with a 16.1 IOS update? I just watched a video on YouTube and it says, “with iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro and IOS 16.1”. 

Also, it says free for 2 years with theactivation of a compatible phone. If you purchased an iPhone 14 today, and in November when the IOS is available, do you have to pay for this feature?

Older phones don't have the new hardware which is required to communicate with the satellites.

You get 2 years free, from the activation of the phone.
Apple have not yet discussed pricing plans beyond that initial 2 year period.
