Apple iPhone 13 Black Sim Tray - Replacement SIM Card Holder

Product Overview

The iPhone 13's physical SIM tray holds just one Nano-SIM card — your second line runs entirely through eSIM. That means if this single tray fails, you lose all cellular connectivity on a phone that still has years of software support ahead. This black replacement tray restores your iPhone 13's SIM slot to working order, fitting flush with Apple's flat-edge aluminum frame design.

Compatibility Details

This tray fits the Apple iPhone 13 (A2482, A2631, A2634, A2635, A2633) exclusively. The iPhone 13 uses a Nano-SIM + eSIM configuration — the physical tray accepts one Nano-SIM card, while the second line is activated digitally through eSIM (or dual eSIM on supported carriers).

Be careful not to confuse this with trays from visually similar iPhones:

• iPhone 12 — identical width (71.5mm) but thinner at 7.4mm vs 7.65mm, so the tray depth and ejector alignment differ
• iPhone 13 Mini — much smaller body (131.5 x 64.2mm), completely different tray dimensions
• iPhone 13 Pro — same external dimensions but uses a stainless steel frame instead of aluminum, with a different tray housing
• iPhone 13 Pro Max — significantly larger at 160.8 x 78.1mm
• iPhone 11 — older generation with thicker body (8.3mm) and different internal tray geometry

Device-Specific Context

The iPhone 13 carries an IP68 water resistance rating, meaning it can handle submersion in up to 6 meters of fresh water for 30 minutes. The SIM tray plays a direct role in maintaining this seal — it includes a rubber gasket ring around its edge that blocks water from entering through the SIM slot. When installing this replacement tray, make sure the gasket sits evenly and the tray clicks fully into place without force. If the gasket appears compressed or damaged, the water resistance may be compromised. The iPhone 13's glass-and-aluminum construction with Ceramic Shield front means every component needs to integrate cleanly — a loose or misaligned tray disrupts both the IP68 seal and the phone's flush, seamless profile.

Color Matching

This black SIM tray matches the Midnight color variant of the iPhone 13. Apple released the iPhone 13 in six colors: Starlight, Midnight, Blue, Pink, Red, and Green. If your iPhone 13 is a different color, check our other dastyab.pk listings for a matching tray — using the wrong color won't affect function, but it will stand out against the frame.

Practical Information

After replacing the tray, test the water resistance seal by checking that the tray sits completely flush with no gaps along the aluminum frame. Avoid exposing the phone to water for at least 24 hours after installation. With iOS updates still actively supporting the iPhone 13 and its capable A15 Bionic chip, this is a repair well worth making. Available with cash on delivery across Pakistan at dastyab.pk.
