Are you sure it is an iPhone X? Go to Settings > General > About > Model Name.

An iPhone XS and later can use an e-SIM instead of a physical SIM. See: About eSIM on iPhone - Apple Support

Are you sure it is an iPhone X or is it possibly an XS or XR?

What is the model number?

That is an iPhone X so could it be that someone else already removed the SIM?
