My phone 13 pro did not come with a sim card or charger. I understand the iphone 10 sim card does not work with iphone 13 pro?

My iPhone 13 pro did not come with a charger. Do you spend $1200+ and get no plug for charging?

Also, my iPhone 13 pro did not come with a sim card and I understand the iPhone 10 sim card does not work with iPhone 13 pro? Will I need to come into the store for a sim card and set up?

iPhone 13 Pro Max

The nano SIM used in your iphone X will fit your iphone 13 (and all iphones since the 5.)

You will only have a problem if your two phones were locked to different network providers.


Apple have not provided chargers for some time now. Use your old charger and cable or buy a 20W charger from Apple.com

Have your cellular provider set up your phone number on the eSim in your phone. There is no reason one needs to use a physical sim card anymore.


Also, while it's true you can use your iPhone X card in your iPhone 13 Pro. I would not recommend it. You would want to have a physical sim which is properly provisioned for 5G service, which an iPhone X sim card would not be.

FWIW my O2 SIM (UK) was originally in my Samsung S5 neo, then my iphone 6S and 7. Then I fitted it to my 12. After a month or two O2 upgraded my contract to 5G on the same physical SIM. All it contains is my number identifier.

I can pick up 5G on it. I'm surprised it still works at all after 4+ years and 4 phones.

There may be different rules elsewhere.

It was Apple who told me to get a new Sim card when I got my 12 Pro Max. So perhaps since that time, it's no longer necessary and a previous Sim card can be used on a 5G plan. When I got my 13 Pro Max, I knew it advance it would not come with a physical Sim, but I had identified my carrier and number at the time or order, so it came set to my number on the eSim. This will my first phone without a physical Sim and since I have absolutely no need to use a secondary number, it won't have a physical Sim at all.
