iPhone 8 Plus Golden SIM Tray Replacement

Product Overview

Replacement parts for the 2017 iPhone 8 Plus are becoming scarce in Pakistan — especially color-matched components like this golden SIM tray. With Apple having discontinued the model years ago, finding exact-fit parts takes more effort than it used to. This plastic Nano-SIM tray restores full cellular connectivity to your iPhone 8 Plus and blends seamlessly with the Gold color variant. Available now at dastyab.pk while stock lasts.

Compatibility Details

This tray fits the Apple iPhone 8 Plus exclusively — model numbers A1864, A1897, A1898. The iPhone 8 Plus uses a single Nano-SIM physical tray with no secondary SIM slot and no eSIM support. One physical SIM card is all this device handles.

Models that will NOT fit this tray:

• iPhone 11 (A2111, A2221) — uses Nano-SIM + eSIM with a completely different tray design and larger dimensions (150.9 x 75.7 mm vs 158.4 x 78.1 mm)
• iPhone 12 (A2403) — redesigned flat-edge chassis with a different tray mechanism and smaller body (146.7 x 71.5 mm)
• iPhone 12 Pro Max (A2342) — despite similar width (78.1 mm), uses a different SIM tray design with eSIM support
• iPhone 13 (A2482, A2631) — entirely different tray shape, dual eSIM capability, and different internal layout
• iPhone 11 Pro (A2160, A2215) — smaller form factor (144.0 x 71.4 mm) with a redesigned SIM mechanism

Device-Specific Context

The iPhone 8 Plus carries an IP67 water and dust resistance rating — meaning a properly seated SIM tray is part of what keeps moisture out of the internals. When installing this replacement tray, make sure the rubber gasket around the tray edge is intact and sits flush against the frame. If the original gasket is damaged or missing, the water resistance seal will be compromised. The phone's glass front and back with aluminum frame construction means the tray needs to align precisely with the metal chassis. Despite being nearly a decade old, the iPhone 8 Plus still runs iOS updates, supports wireless charging, and features True Tone display with 3D Touch — plenty of life left in the hardware to justify a simple tray replacement.

Color Matching

This golden SIM tray is designed to match the Gold color variant of the iPhone 8 Plus. Apple released the iPhone 8 Plus in three finishes: Space Gray, Silver, and Gold. If your iPhone 8 Plus is Space Gray or Silver, this golden tray will not match your device — check our other dastyab.pk listings for a color-matched option.

Practical Information

At nine years since release, the iPhone 8 Plus remains a capable daily driver with its A11 Bionic chip and dual 12MP cameras. Replacing a worn-out SIM tray is far more sensible than upgrading when the phone still meets your needs. After inserting the new tray, power the phone off and back on to ensure the SIM card registers properly. Order with cash on delivery anywhere in Pakistan through dastyab.pk.
