Earlier this week, a rumour from Brazilian website Blog do iPhone claimed that iPhone 15 Pro models launching in 2023 might not have a physical SIM card slot.<\/p>\n<p>However, a new report from MacRumors says that Apple has advised major US carriers to prepare for the launch of eSIM-only smartphones by September 2022.<\/p>\n<p>It is possible that Apple might remove the physical SIM card slot starting with some iPhone 14 models, rather than iPhone 15 models as originally rumoured.<\/p>\n<p>It is also said that there will be support for two eSIM cards, ensuring dual SIM functionality. The removal of the SIM card slot could further improve water resistance.<\/p>\n<p>The next flagship series, the iPhone 14 line-up, will come with up to 2 terabyte of storage. Apple will adopt QLC flash storage for next year\u2019s iPhone and that, thanks to the newer storage technology, will increase capacity to 2TB.<\/p>\n<p>Apple is also reportedly planning to add a 48MP camera lens to the iPhone next yearfollowed by a periscope lens in 2023.
