Frequently Asked Questions

Is this SIM reader compatible with the iPhone 13 Pro?

No, this component is exclusively intended for the iPhone 13 and is not compatible with the Pro or Pro Max variants.

Is the "No Service" error always resolved by replacing the SIM reader?

Not necessarily; if the phone detects the presence of the card but does not catch a network, the failure may be associated with the antenna or the baseband circuit.
