Apple patents an iPhone with dual SIM

iphone-with-dual-SIM

Last June we echoed a rumor that Engadget had published in which it was reported that Apple could have in mind the launch of an iPhone with dual SIM. A month later it seems that this news has been confirmed, as we have been able to read in Patently Apple. This week the Cupertino-based company has received confirmation of several patents from the United States Patent and Trademark Office. One of them will allow us in future trackpad models to make use of the Apple Pencil. In another patent we could see how Apple could have the intention of adding a digital crown, like the Apple Watch, to both the iPad and the iPhone in the future.

But it has not been the only patent that the company has obtained this week, and the last of all shows us an iPhone with dual SIM. As we can see in the patent the technology described would allow the iPhone to use two SIM cards together, but it would also allow to use both lines at the same time simultaneously. Although this technology is widely used both in Asia and in Arab countries, until now Apple had not seen the need to implement this technology in its devices and if it finally does, it is most likely that these terminals will not be available. all over the world. This iPhone would use an eSIM on one side and a nano SIM card.

According to the latest rumors, the iPhone 7 or iPhone 6SE, a name that the next iPhone could receive, would have already entered the production phase, so it is quite unlikely that the next iPhone to hit the market will implement the possibility of using a dual SIM, if finally Apple decides to make use of this technology in its devices in the future, because as we all know, that a company files a patent, it does not mean that it will finally implement it on their devices.
