Can't believe Apple is so cheap and does not even include a Sim ejection tool with new phones.
Update- Apple sucks!!
They said they'd have to swap whole phone and charge me whole phone for me damaging it since they don't do sim tray only swaps on 7/7P at this time.
They had a tool in the back to bend it back and as far as I can tell works ok again but nuts! He said in a few months maybe they'll just replace that part but for now that's only option. He said he'd do me a favor and put nothing in the notes.
And gold SE they have 1 in stock at other location 30 min away and are calling to confirm.
This is the new apple.
Are you sure this wouldn't have been the case with the 6s or 6 when they were initially released?
I don't know I didn't have this problem with my 6+ or 6s+
Why does Apple suck? You destroyed the SIM tray with a paperclip.Update- Apple sucks!!

This is the new apple. Smh.
I was just wondering if it's a problem with limited availability of individual parts when the phones are first released.
Stupid question. If the phone is the same chassis, won't a 6s/6s+ work?Update- Apple sucks!!

Except the color will be obvious since I have a matte blackStupid question. If the phone is the same chassis, won't a 6s/6s+ work?

What about the rubber gasket? Isn't that integrated into the SIM tray?

That too
I used a paper clip before but it never caused any damage.
Either way if I broke my sim tray I wouldn't blame someone else.
Obviously you pushed it too much for it to bend like that.
I've used paper clips to wooden tooth picks with no problems.
Summary: ham fisted user breaks sim slot, not once but twice, rages at Apple.
Gets one free sim slot replaced, Apple don't have spare iPhone 7 parts (as they didn't expect ham fisted users so soon) so a replacement would be a whole device, which they would rightly expect to charge said user for but they help out as best they can by straightening the bent part for the user.
User rages anyway. Think that amply covers this thread.
I'm curious who decided this was a good idea, too for non-SIM free people,
I'll bet some 'suit' thinks it was good deterrent from one switching carriers, lol
The sim tool is included with the sim-free phones. I bought one today and it's there in the box.
