SIM card switch

What happens if I have an iphone that will not update or restore and take the SIM card out of it and put it into a new phone. Will I be able to access the same data that was on the previous phone if no icloud backup is available?

iPhone XS Max, iOS 14

No data is stored on the SIM card. To get the data on a new phone, you need to restore a backup. Without a backup of the old phone, you can’t get it on the new phone.
