Both the iPhone 6s and iPhone 13 use the same nano-SIM card size, so the physical SIM card will fit. However, the SIM must be active and compatible with your carrier. Keep in mind that the iPhone 13 also supports eSIM, giving you the option to activate a second line digitally without inserting another physical SIM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Q2_What_happens_if_I_put_the_wrong_SIM_size_in_an_iPhone_6s\"><\/span><strong>Q2. What happens if I put the wrong SIM size in an iPhone 6s?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A larger SIM card will not seat correctly in the tray and can prevent the tray from closing flush. Forcing the tray shut can damage both the card and the tray slot.

Will any carrier&#8217;s nano-SIM work in an iPhone 6s?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This depends on whether your iPhone 6s is locked to a specific carrier. A carrier-locked device will only accept SIM cards from that provider. If you want to use a SIM from a different network, contact your current carrier first to ask about unlocking the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Words\"><\/span><strong>Final Words<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you know the iPhone 6s SIM card size is nano-SIM, measuring <strong>12.3 x 8.8 mm<\/strong>.
