Everyone's results must vary - I've had an iPhone X, 11 Pro, 12 Pro and now the 13 Pro. I have all of the boxes and each of them did have a SIM tool included. The 11, 12 and 13 Pro's were purchased as officially unlocked devices. I can't recall how we purchased the X, I suppose I could look at the model # on the box but isn't important...lol.
