  • Latest News- Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) Card Market: Hybrid SIM is expected to lead the Type segment during 2025-2029

    The Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) Card Market is being driven by Growing migration to 5G network

    The Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) Card Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.7% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 2654.1 million. The e-SIM card market is poised for growth as smartphone manufacturers introduce devices with e-SIMs, which are embedded and non-removable. This trend is driven by the increasing popularity of dual SIM phones, featuring one traditional, removable SIM card and one e-SIM. The rapid replacement cycle of smartphones, averaging less than two years in developed markets and two to three years in emerging markets, further fuels demand for e-SIM technology. As consumers upgrade their devices, the integrated e-SIM cards become a necessary component, increasing both supply and demand for this technology in the handset industry.
