The iPhone 16 Pro with SIM card slot is specifically designed for the Indian market, catering to local preferences and regulatory requirements. This model maintains the traditional physical SIM tray, which remains popular among Indian consumers who frequently switch between multiple network providers.
In India, where eSIM infrastructure is still developing in many regions, the physical SIM slot provides essential connectivity flexibility. Local telecom operators like Jio, Airtel, and Vi continue to support physical SIM cards extensively, making this feature crucial for reliable mobile service across both urban and rural areas.
Apple has recognized the importance of maintaining SIM card compatibility in the Indian market, where dual SIM functionality is particularly valued. Many Indian users maintain separate numbers for personal and business use, or utilize different networks for optimal coverage and cost savings.
The device is available through authorized Apple resellers and major electronics retailers across India, including stores in metropolitan cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Chennai. Local warranty support and service centers ensure proper after-sales service for Indian consumers. |
