What happened to daring to be different? What happened to having options? What happened to creativity?
Great news!
Omg how surprising. I definitely didn't see that coming.
If I don't have a SIM card slot, how do I plan on using my phone to.... oh I don't know, use a mobile phone network?
And how exactly will I swap between networks at will, by swapping SIMs, if I can't swap SIMs?
Ridiculous.
I don't understand why people cling on to crap, probably better me posting in unpopularopinion... but I just don't understand why people want a headphone jack, removable battery, SD card slot, SIM slot etc. I actively look to purchase phones that don't have this.
I recently bought a new phone and I'm quite frustrated that it doesn't have esim support. As others have mentioned, it'd make using your phone abroad so much easier. Surely in 2023 a physical SIM just shouldn't be needed any more...
Boy, you people will go out of your way to really bitch incessantly about anything and everything.
