Apple\“s iPhone 16 series continues to evolve with the global trend towards eSIM technology, but still maintains physical SIM card support in most markets including India. The device features a dual SIM capability with one nano-SIM slot and eSIM functionality, catering to the specific needs of Indian consumers who often use multiple mobile networks.
In the Indian market, the iPhone 16 maintains physical SIM compatibility due to the country\“s widespread use of traditional SIM cards and the popularity of dual SIM devices. Local telecom providers like Jio, Airtel, and Vi continue to support both physical SIMs and eSIMs, giving users flexibility in their connectivity choices.
The physical SIM slot in iPhone 16 models available in India supports 5G networks from all major Indian carriers. This ensures seamless connectivity across urban and rural areas, where network infrastructure varies significantly. The device\“s SIM tray is designed to accommodate a single nano-SIM while providing eSIM support for additional numbers.
Indian consumers can purchase iPhone 16 through authorized Apple resellers, e-commerce platforms like Flipkart and Amazon India, and carrier partnerships. The device\“s dual SIM capability remains a key selling point in the Indian market, where users frequently maintain separate numbers for personal and business use. |
