Apple says it is removing the SIM tray for the US iPhone devices. They will use only an eSIM as it is a more secure alternative to a physical SIM card. eSIM also allows a phone user to have multiple cellular plans on a single device. Seeing that the technology isn’t yet in use in African countries including Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Congo, Senegal, Uganda, and Zimbabwe it will be interesting to see if it forces telecommunication companies to leapfrog.

Apple is known to hasten and bring disruptions, like when it stopped shipping charging cables and reduced the size of the device packaging box. So it will also be interesting to see how other markets such as the UK, China, India, UAE, Argentina, Brazil, Qatar, etc. embrace and plan for the eSIM decision. Will other device manufacturers like Samsung and Huawei follow suit and how long before SIM trays are done away with?
