Compatibility

Before you replace the SIM reader
Try the simple checks first: clean the SIM card, test a different SIM, and make sure the tray is not bent or the wrong size. If the fault stays, inspect the reader contacts with a magnifier. On the iPhone XS the SIM reader sits on the logic board, so fitting a new one usually needs hot air, flux and microsoldering skills. If you are not confident with board work, a local repair shop can fit it for you.

Frequently asked questions
Will this SIM card reader fit my iPhone XS Max?
No. This reader is listed for the iPhone XS only. The larger iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XR use different parts.
How do I know the reader is faulty and not the tray?
If a known-good SIM in a straight, correctly fitted tray still shows "No SIM", and the reader pins look bent, dirty or missing, the reader is the likely cause.
Is fitting the SIM card reader difficult?
Yes, it is an advanced repair. The reader is soldered to the logic board, so you need soldering equipment and experience. Most DIY repairers ask a repair shop to fit it.
How fast will it arrive?
Orders placed before 4pm, Monday to Friday, are dispatched the same day from Manchester.
