In the future, the US version with locks is about to become history

Huaqiangbei has received a ban on the sale of the US version from relevant departments
As for Apple, the next generation iPhone 17 will have an Air version of esim, and the thickness of the phone will be greatly reduced (four models have been released)
In the future, Apple will promote esim. It has always been Apple's goal to use esim on all machines
By that time, there will be no physical card change in esim's locked machine
Moreover, once that thickness of the handset is compress, it is no longer possible to use the same main design by reserving the card slot space
Foreign operators themselves have great opinions on Huaqiangbei Gray Products, which breach the contract and steal the aircraft
--This is two different things from Apple's cooperation with operators to handle inventory through iccid
In short, the lock disappears, which is in the interest of most participants in the ecosystem
It is foreseeable that the US version of the iPhone 18 and iPhone 19 era will disappear with locks in the future
The only unknown of the Bank of China is the esim review
What will happen to the Bank of China then is not clear

Anonymous6065 Feb 9, 2025As long as Apple is not a global unified esim and has a sim card model, Huaqiangbei can change the card and bypass the operator lock However, card stickers will eventually withdraw from this stage, because the Bank of China is not much more expensive now, so there is no need to toss like this, and the people who toss are unwilling to toss as they get older. Just like the principle of flashing phones, now There are a batch of people who use Android to flash their phones, and there are still a few people who play flashing packages, which are very few But even if there is esim, a machine that can't be understood by things, as long as it can connect to wifi, many people can use it, at least as long as the price is beautiful, for those who do live broadcasts, for them, this kind of machine that only connects to wifi is very good

As a user with a lock, I still don't quite agree with this view. A counterexample is that the US version of the 15Pro motherboard does not reserve card slot space, but reserves sim card test points, which communicate with the motherboard through the test points. There is an ultra-thin card slot under the motherboard. If there is really no space, the built-in sim card is the same. Unless it is castrated at the system level, the physical sim card is not recognized, so I am still optimistic about the future of locked machines
