Apple iPhone X Black SIM Tray Replacement

Product Overview

The iPhone X introduced Face ID, an edge-to-edge OLED display, and a stainless steel frame back in 2017 — a design so refined that millions of units are still in daily use across Pakistan. But that premium build means every component needs to match, including the SIM tray. This black plastic replacement tray restores full Nano-SIM functionality to your iPhone X without compromising the phone's seamless look.

Compatibility Details

This tray fits the Apple iPhone X (A1865, A1901, A1902) and its single Nano-SIM slot. The iPhone X does not support eSIM or dual physical SIM — it uses one physical Nano-SIM card only, so the tray holds exactly one card.

Models that look similar but use different trays:

• iPhone XR (A1984) — Significantly larger body (150.9 x 75.7 x 8.3 mm vs 143.6 x 70.9 x 7.7 mm) and supports eSIM alongside the physical SIM, resulting in a different tray design.
• iPhone XS (A2097, A1920, A2100) — Identical external dimensions but adds eSIM support with a redesigned internal tray mechanism. The trays are not interchangeable.
• iPhone XS Max (A1921, A2101, A2102, A2104) — Much larger device (157.5 x 77.4 x 7.7 mm) with a completely different tray size and eSIM capability.

All three of these newer models introduced eSIM functionality that the original iPhone X lacks, which changes the tray's internal contact layout. Do not attempt to swap trays between these models.

Device-Specific Context

The iPhone X carries an IP67 water resistance rating, meaning it can handle submersion in up to 1 meter of 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 prevents water from entering through the SIM slot. When installing this replacement tray, make sure the gasket sits flush and is free of dust or debris. Press the tray in firmly until it clicks; any gap will compromise the water seal. Given the iPhone X's glass front and back with stainless steel frame, a flush-fitting black tray preserves the device's clean aesthetic. With Face ID, wireless Qi charging, and dual 12MP cameras still delivering solid performance, the iPhone X remains a capable daily driver worth maintaining.

Color Matching

This black SIM tray is the correct match for the Space Gray variant of the iPhone X. The iPhone X was released in two colors: Space Gray and Silver. If you own the Silver model, you will need a silver/white tray instead — check our other listings on dastyab.pk for the matching option.

Practical Information

After replacing the SIM tray on your iPhone X, insert a SIM ejector tool or a straightened paperclip to test that the tray ejects and reseats smoothly. Check the rubber gasket ring for any tears or displacement — this is what keeps water out of the SIM slot. If you use your phone around water or in humid conditions, a damaged gasket means your IP67 protection is gone.
