Now seeing as how the iPhone form factor has essentially remained unchanged since 2014’s iPhone 6, the iPhone 8’s rumored edgeless display is without question the feature users appear to be most excited about. What’s more, recent rumblings from the rumor mill suggest that Apple has figured out a way to embed its Touch ID sensor into the display itself. As for what the final design is going to look like, a number of leaks over the past few weeks have provided us with an avalanche of information about the iPhone 8’s dimensions. Now that’s all well and good, but it’s always helpful to have some useful context. After all, it’s not as if anyone can readily imagine what those dimensions translate into in their head. Helping out in that regard is noted leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer, who you might otherwise know as OnLeaks. Recently, Hemmerstoffer tweeted a photo of the iPhone 8 design aligned next to a slew of other smartphone models, including the iPhone 7, Google’s Pixel, the Galaxy S8, the Pixel XL, the Nexus 6P and more. As evident from the illustration above, the iPhone 8 will be about the same size as the Pixel and the Huawei P10. Of course, the iPhone 8 design will afford users much more screen real estate as both the Pixel and the P10 feature rather thick bezels at the top and bottom. For some additional perspective, the following photos purport to show the final iPhone 8 form factor stacked up against the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Interestingly enough, it appears that the iPhone 8 may be slightly thicker than the iPhone 7 Plus.
Are you confused as where to insert the SIM in iPhone 4, Apple iPhone 4 uses a Micro SIM which is 15 mm × 12 mm in size while the standard Mini SIM is 25 mm × 15 mm in size. Take a simple paper clip and make it straight. You can also use the SIM eject tool if it’s included in the phone package. Insert the pin into the small hole and push it slightly firmly until the tray pops-out. Now pull out the Sim card tray with your hands. Place your Micro SIM card into the SIM tray. Make sure it fits perfectly and the golden circuit side of SIM is faced downwards. Push the tray back into slot in the same manner you ejected it out. You’ll hear a click upon successfully placing the tray in its place. Wait for iPhone to recognize the SIM card. Apple has announced the next-generation iPhone ‘iPhone 5‘ which is just 7.6mm thick, the world’s thinnest smartphone according to Apple. To make this happen, Apple has switched to a nano-SIM card in new iPhone 5, which is 44% smaller than a micro-SIM.
Certainly, you wont be able to use your normal SIM or Micro SIM card in iPhone 5. And nano-SIM being a new standard introduced by Apple, wont be available anytime soon with all the carriers. As stated by ETSI, The fourth form factor (4FF) card aka Nano SIM will be 40% smaller than the current smallest Micro SIM card design, at 12.3mm wide by 8.8mm high, and 0.67mm thick. It can be packaged and distributed in a way that is backwards compatible with existing SIM card designs. The new design will offer the same functionality as all current SIM cards. Comparing the dimensions, there is a substantial difference in the sizes of Micro SIM and nano SIM. Here is a video tutorial that describes ‘How to convert a Micro SIM into a Nano SIM‘ but it’s not a foolproof way and there are high chances that you might spoil your SIM while doing it.
