Apple iPhone 15 Pro to come without a SIM card slot

25 December 2021
It's unclear if the non-Pro models will also use eSIM tech or come with a physical SIM slot.

What about countries that don't have eSIM?

    AhmedSLL, 25 Dec 2021If this is true, than it will definitely be exclusive to so... moreor could be just for the pro models since those don't sell as much as the non pro.

      OldVillainousHeavens, 25 Dec 2021I can't wait for the iPhone 16 'leaks' next ... moreIphone 14 pro max = 48MP 1/1.44"
      Iphone 15 pro max = 12MP 1/3.4" 104mm periscope
      Iphone 16 Pro Max = 144Hz
      Iphone 17 Pro max = 104-130mm periscope
      Iphone 18 pro max = QHD screen
      Iphone 19 pro max = 1/2.6" 13mm camera

        I can't wait for the iPhone 16 'leaks' next week!!!!!

          If this actually happens i wanna see how the fanboys defend this. For no headphone jack they said there's wireless, for no SD they said there's cloud, for no sim....communicate telepathically?

              Apple is going to ruin its sales. Good. LMAO!

              The Motorola Razr 2019 came with an e-sim and was a Verizon-exclusive. Total disaster. Waiting for the Razr 5G was much, much better. More polish. Came with an sim. Wasn't exclusive to one carrier.

              Many people love to switch phones by swapping sims from one to the next. This will cause total restriction as now go have to go to your carrier if you want to switch phones. Such a hassle.

              Apple wants to make things as less user-friendly and restrictive as possible.

                Since they don't have SD card slot in the first place so it's not a big deal for them.

                  If this is true, than it will definitely be exclusive to some reguons, e-sim is still not a thing in many parts of the world and appe would be crippling their sales this way, impossible.

                            No sense in the 'pro' version having a lesser capability the the 'non-pro' version. Surely if Crapple were moving to portless then the 'pro' would have dual e-sim and the 'non-pro' would have single e-sim.

                                        eSIM is still not a thing in loads of countries, so it's impossible to remove the physical SIM card slot away until eSIM has become mainstream.
