SIM Tray

[TMavC5]

Has anyone noticed the SIMM tray is very long? Any idea what this is about?

No idea but I had a heck of a time seating my sim card lol. Finally got it but no idea why it was such a struggle this time

Yeah, my thought exactly. It looks too small for my Fold 4 SIM. But it fit somehow.

Looks like they were thinking SD card slot

It's for probably other parts of the world that can actually use 2 sim slots, why it ends up in the US not sure lol

Glad that I'm not the only one that had difficulty getting it in.

The 2 slot SIM trays are for the international and some other devices who can use either 2 physical SIMs or 1 SIM and 1 eSIM.

+1 for having little difficulty getting the SIM set in the SIM slot. I was initially thinking defect in my SIM card slot manufacturing

That annoyed the crap out of me with my S23U also lol they don't make it easy to just insert the SIM smh

I feel better knowing this. Lol. I'm glad I wasn't the only one. Lol

It rattles too. Well, I'm hoping that's what it is and nothing else.

Yeah I'm not too impressed with Sammie's sim tray design.. in fact dare I say, it's probably the worst I've ever used

Fortunately once the SIM is seated and working, that’s it — we don’t have to worry about it again until a phone change, which for me is every three years on average.

The rattle you hear is probably the camera. That's normal

Camera, huh? Doesn't make me feel better. Although I hear similar with my S10.

I plan to do some swapping between my S10 and F5. Feel better with the S10 out fishing.

Camera rattle is totally normal. It should stop when the camera is active.

Best not to worry about things that aren't worrying.

It's the camera. It moves to help with the video stabilization so you can walk or be moving while doing a video or picture and your video or picture won't be all shaky. Nothing to be worried about.
