My phone iPhone 7 plus is now unlocked (paid for). My wife's pone iPhone 8 plus us locked (not paid for). My wife is traveling internationally and is taking the unlocked phone, the iPhone 7 plus. What is the best way to switch phones? Thank you.
iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 12
Unless your wife is planning on using a local sim card from whatever country she is travelling to, this should not be necessary, as her carrier can provide a roaming package for her trip.
If she wants to use a local sim card, then, and assuming you use the same carrier at home as her:

Back up both phones, then follow the instructions here on each phone. Remove the SIM cards and swap them, then set them each up with the appropriate iCloud account and restore the backups you made. (restore the 7+ backup to the 8+ and vice versa)
