Apple has been aiming to make its devices portless someday and that is why the Cupertino giant made the most controversial decision of removing the headphone jack from smartphones back in 2016. While current rumors suggest that Apple might soon remove the SIM slot from its iPhone models, offering only eSIM support, it has been revealed that former Apple CEO and co-founder Steve Jobs wanted the first iPhone to arrive without a dedicated SIM slot. Check out the details below.
As the former chief of iPod development at Apple, Tony Fadell, releases his new book “Build,” the industry veteran has been sharing many unknown stories about his life and his interaction with influential business executives like Jobs. In one such story during a recent interview at a special History Museum event, Fadell mentioned that Steve Jobs was against the idea of a SIM slot on the first iPhone.
For those who don’t know, Apple is looking into launching an iPhone without a SIM slot now and the iPhone 15 could most likely be the first one without it.
