    Only Satan would design a hole that is smaller than the end of a bent paperclip when the entire purpose of the hole is to put something into it.

        I guess it’s called a SIM card eject pin tool, but you’ll usually find them in cell phone toolkits.

          some are thicker or thinner than others. some phones have a superthin hole. so some ejectors or a paperclip won’t work (for some phones).

          maybe the superthin variety is the most common variety out there. but i have a collection and they are nearly all thick.

      I used to keep one on my keys back when I worked at a carrier store selling phones. Made life so much easier then.

      In fact, the actual inserted part broke off years ago (and I haven’t done phone sales in over a decade), but the main part of the body is actually still attached to my keyring. I haven’t even thought about that until this post, actually.

      Ngl that’s pretty smart to keep one on a keychain, better than keeping it in the original box

      You’re either really good at holding onto those things, or really good at losing/breaking phones

    How often are you dudes changing SIMs? I only ever do it when I get a new phone, and they always come with one.

    Just tuck it into your phone case if you can. Easy solution to always have it when you need it.

      Same. I have tow phones, one personal and one business. Kept it in my personal one, between phone and case. You never know when you or someone else might need it.
