    SIM Card Slot Reomval; And More

Rumours claimed that iPhone 14 series models launching in 2023 might not have a physical SIM Card Slot. It is possible that Apple might remove the physical SIM Slot starting with some iPhone 14 models, rather than some iPhone 15 models as originally rumoured. Let us know what brings on such a rumour:

SIM Card Slot Reomval; And More

Apple planning to ditch the SIM slot is hardly a surprise. Since the tech giant is said to eventually move to a portless iPhone, and removing the SIM Slot looks like the first step in that direction. Apple’s former design chief Jony Ive once envisioned the iPhone as becoming a “single slab of glass”. The SIM slot’s removal would be another step towards a seamless design and improve water resistance in the process.

An anonymous tipster informed MacRumors that Apple has advised major U.S. carriers to prepare for the launch of eSIM-only smartphones by September 2022. The tipster shared a seemingly legitimate document outlining the timeframe for this initiative. Although the document does not specifically mention Apple or the iPhone.

As part of the transition, some U.S. carriers will allegedly start offering select iPhone 13 models without a nano-SIM card. It might come in the second quarter of 2022. IPhone 13 models sold at Apple Stores or on Apple.com already lack a nano-SIM card in the box. Users can activate a cellular plan via eSIM by turning on the iPhone, connecting to a Wi-Fi network, and following the on-screen instructions.

It all seems like speculation and there’s no concrete evidence to back any of these claims. Before this, there were rumours about Apple planning to remove the Lightning port from the smartphones.
