SIM card opener

[ftlum]

Hi All.

When I opened my AT&T iPhone 6s plus box, I couldn't find that little metal device that you use to open the SIM card tray (the thing that basically takes the place of a paper clip). Am I missing it or are these no longer being included?

Thanks!

I didn't see one in my box either.

These are not included in general. Only a couple AT&T models in the past have included them. Unlocked non-carrier specific phones should have them. Personally I buy a handful of them on eBay so I have them for when I need them.

The haven't been included for a long time with the exception of ones that are marketed as unlocked. A straightened paperclip will work fine instead though.

The only way you can get them is by either purchasing an unlocked, sim free, non carrier specific phone or by getting an express replacement from Apple.

Paper clips works great.

I kept the one that came with my 3GS many years ago
You can just use a paper clip too!

I just use one of my earrings works fine.

A thumbtack works even better than a paperclip!

None in my box for AT&T, not last year either.

I rant to Target this morning and bought 10,000 paperclips or something for $2, and they work fantastically. They're in the art/crafts department.

Only sim free phones come with the eject tools now

Haven't had one in years. Funny enough, I got one when I had an expedited repair through Applecare+.

I've got the european version which includes a sim tray opening tool.
