Sim Card

I just purchased the new Iphone 12 Pro and got it set up from my Iphone 10 and there is no sim card in my new phone so the phone will not work. Does it not come with a sim card?

You can use your iPhone X nano-SIM card on your iPhone 12 Pro (assuming your new iPhone is not carrier locked).

Note: If you carrier supports (builtin) eSIM, then you can activate it by calling your carrier or let your carrier send you a new nano-SIM.

Ok, I can do that but I thought my new phone would come with a new sim card? Do they not come with a sim card at all?

Not necessary, it depends where you got the iPhone from, some do and some don't.

If you can activate eSIM, you don't need a SIM card.

Do you still have the SIM from your previous iPhone?

Are you using the same cellular provider for your new phone?
