The iPhone 14 replaces physical SIM cards with eSIM.
Apple’s newest iPhones – the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus — won’t feature physical SIM cards.
At yesterday’s announcement in Cupertino, the firm dropped the bombshell, saying that, at least in the United States, the iPhone 14 series will only be able to authenticate with wireless providers with an eSIM.
Instead of changing a physical SIM card, the eSIM enables software-based changes to your wireless carrier, data, or service package. Although eSIM is not a new technology, it has just recently become more widespread on standard mobile smartphones.

Apple said that major carriers, including T-Mobile, Verizon and AT&T, will provide resources to assist with eSIM-related questions, service upgrades and changes.
Apple has supported eSIMs alongside physical SIMs dating back to the iPhone XS, XS Max and XR, as well as cellular-enabled iPads and Apple Watches. As CNET notes, last year’s iPhone 13 even allowed for multiple eSIMs to be enabled at once.
