Iphone 14 International (with SIM card slot)

Hi, does anyone know if, after launch, it'll be possible to buy an international iPhone 14 with a SIM slot in the USA?

Absolutely - subject to the same “Carrier Lock” rules which have always existed.


I expect many more carriers to roll-out eSIM prepaid “cards” (really just a QR code one scans to initiate provisioning) fairly rapidly.


The technology is “there” as evidenced by Apple’s “All In” commitment in the U.S. where eSIMs have been online - if not exactly widespread - for about 4 years.


eSIM is NOT unique to North America.
