But if you’re on a carrier that doesn’t support eSIM or intend to move to one, you shouldn’t acquire the iPhone 14 right now. You may not have to wait long; this might be the push that smaller carriers need to adopt eSIMs.
Apple spokesmen disclosed during the launch event that the iPhone 14 and 14 Pro can contain at least eight eSIMs, with up to two active at the same time. According to Airalo, a global eSIM distributor, earlier iPhones could accommodate five to ten SIM cards, depending on the model. Although not all overseas carriers accept eSIMs, this might alleviate some of the pain of losing the traditional SIM tray.
