Google Pixel 8: Slot for SIM card is available

Even if eSIM continues to grow, there will probably be no obligation.

Several markets already have the first smartphones where you can no longer insert a plastic SIM card. Recently, there was a rumor that Google has planned the same for the Pixel 8. but now have Trusted sources could not confirm this report.

This will be consistent with current developments. On the one hand, eSIM is becoming more widespread, on the other hand, work is being done for Android to enable users to quickly and easily transfer their own eSIM between their own devices.

Now it seems clear that the eSIM-only rumors don’t apply to the Pixel 8. There were more suspect assumptions that were not confirmed. Early press materials did not betray the fact that the usual SIM slot could be seen on the left edge of the case.

If anything, I was hoping for USA only e-SIM, but not here yet. In Germany, eSIMs are now also available from cheaper providers.
