Apple has been trying to crack the Chinese market for quite some time and it seems it will finally gain a foothold there. All the new iPhones come with dual-SIM support, which isn’t exactly the most wanted feature in the U.S., but there is a demand for it in Asia, particularly in Hong Kong and China. In order to capture more demographics, Apple has made an effort this year, and apparently, it is paying off, particularly with the iPhone XR.

First off, Apple announced the more affordable iPhone XR this year, alongside the more luxe iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max. All the phones support two SIM cards, but the support for the second one comes through eSIM technology. However, since the eSIM technology is not supported in China, Apple released a special version of the phone with a physical SIM tray for the region.
