Most major US carriers, as well as many others globally, accept eSIM, and iPhones have supported them since 2018, including the option to utilize two SIM cards at the same time. Until the iPhone 13, it meant one eSIM and one conventional SIM; the iPhone 13 series included the option to utilize two eSIMs simultaneously. The next natural step is to remove the physical SIM — and the hole in the casing it needs. At least for Apple, and in the United States — everywhere else, the iPhone 14 retains a SIM slot.
If you use a major US mobile phone network like AT&T, Verizon, or T-Mobile, the absence of a physical SIM tray won’t bother you too much. Even if you switch providers or phones, you can get an eSIM from Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile without visiting a shop.
