An iPhone 14 purchased in the USA does not have a physical SIM slot. If you are in a country where the carriers don't support eSIM, you won't be able to use your phone there.


Ask your carrier about an International eSIM.

Hello, and exactly this is why I looked for an iPhone that uses two nano

SIM cards. Because if you travel a lot, and I really do, than the good

old sim card is the best way to stay connected. My last big travel was

to Brazil and I used my brand new Hongkong iPhone 14 Pro Max with two

physical sim cards in it. I had no problems at all, swapping a sim card

is so easy. The problem was to get such an iPhone. But after some time I

found it at a small Austrian company named tegcom. I'm so glad that I

have it and an eSIM is not what I need. So sell your eSIM iPhone and buy

a HK one and your problems are gone.
