iPhone 12 does have two SIM card slots, as confirmed by Apple in a support document obtained by 9to5Mac. This is a major departure from the iPhone line of devices, which has only had one SIM card slot since its inception.
The second SIM card slot can be used for cellular service or other supplementary services, such as VoLTE or Wi-Fi Calling. .
This change could be seen as a response to the increasing popularity of dual-SIM devices, such as the Galaxy S10 and OnePlus 6T. These devices allow users to have two separate phone numbers and separate data plans, without having to switch between carriers or use multiple devices.
This potential change may also be beneficial for people who travel a lot and want to keep their phone number and data plan in one place. Having two SIM card slots will allow iPhone 12 to serve as both a primary device and a backup device, should the primary device become unusable.
Overall, it’s clear that Apple is paying attention to the growing trend of dual-SIM devices and is prepared to accommodate those users with iPhone 12.
